SOS!!!!!!

Anyone know anything about troubleshooting LED lights? Photontek 1000W Pro

Half my light quit working. Checked all connections. Reinstalled all connections. Put in manual controller to make sure it wasn't the controller. Shut off light and restarted. Slight bitch slap. Driver mounted externally is warm...No other exposed wiring to check...warraanty void if components are opened. and no frikkin phone contact number!!!

Yes, checked all house and is good. Have had a couple of outages the last few days, but also on a very good surge protector. Other items running fine on same protector. Have half the light on full blast and at a 45* angle

Already sent them an email. Will hopefully hear something early morning. Everyone I know around here has all their lights in use. Will probably have to go buy a light in the am. Was gonna get a Chilled light in the near future, but I will have to go with a different brand tomorrow. Will do an HLG as they are good and readily available. Sold my 600R Spec to get a bigger light for a 5x5. Should have kept it!!!

The only plus is the ladies are photos. Guess i'll just veg a little longer and do a scrog...

Thanks for chiming in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello Good People, I come here today humbly seeking advice. As I have already posted, I have a grow currently underway with Mendel genetics. My grow closet isnt large enough to accomodate all of them, so I had to move one out last night. I choose to move Pineapple Fantasm, for the reasons of being too large and I got this one as a freebie anyways. Pineapple F is a collaboration between Brother Mendel and mephisto. I moved her outside, but due to the unseasonably high temps she looked stressed so I am weighing the idea of setting up a little burple light that I have as a spare and have her split time under that light and outside in the natural sun. Do any of you feel that would be putting undue stress on a plant that is, I am guessing, already stressed from the move. She has the structure to be a large auto. She is currently on about day 33 and just in preflower/beginning flower. Those genetics look very hardy and my inclination is that they can handle the transitions, but I would love any feedback from you expert growers. Thanks.
