Hey Dale,

I think @Cave Dirt Cody is a pretty knowledgeable electrician. Well, his grow space is fantastic and he wired it up himself. Definitely looks professional.

After an amazing sunny day yesterday, cloudy and rainy today.

Need some motivation to get this day in gear! This should do it and then some!

Cave Dirt Cody is an electrician. He usually chimes in frequently. That should be enough to power that light though

[Cave Dirt Cody]

I’m working in a crappy service area. Gotta go outside for service and it’s raining.

20 amp circuit #12 wire 1600 watts max continuous load. I would try to stay in the 12 to 1400 wat range per circuit. A 600 watt light can have #16 cord on it,
I run #12 to 120v 20amp outlets

Ok no problem I am work too. I believe true watts this is the driver. I was told it’s the same thing as a HLG. But after doing research pretty sure it’s just a DIY light kit. I have the lights set to come on just before I get home so if they are dim is hasn’t been for very long. where the dimmer is set now is where it was before I started having issues. Which is pretty much 100% the knob is against the detent. Any more power and it’s full on
