Indoor Prism Lighting Science CMH Test grow - 2018

what color lamp your looking for? 3100/4100/4200 ?
Good question. I have my room on full go and the cmh is the center piece. Have good LEDs on one side and ok cobs on the other.
Could use more red I think. But open to some knowledge .

check out the two I posted for ya, one of them should work. both will work actually... I use the 4200 myself I kinda like it and it seems to flower good, you have led anyways so they should get enough reds from that for the flowering part..I may try that 3100 from active-gro it's priced right, always good to have back-up lamps...

hot start delay is in the ballast mate......it means if the power goes out, your ballast will not re-light your light for inbetween 15/30 mins until your bulb has cooled some....hope this helps bro.

it is something you can add to your ballast and it will NOT let the Hot Lamp re-ignite if the power flickers or cuts for whatever reason, you can adjust time from 15mins off time to 30min.. Its a very good investment, it's surely cheaper then replacing blown lamps...the lamps have a gas in them if they not cooled before re-ignite they could explode and cause serious harm, One of safer parts with this LEC if that it will only except lamps for open fixtures, but I still think every LEC or HiD lighting should have built in hot start delays...at 45$-100$ for lamp changes it only makes since to have a hot start delay...

oh and if you put in a new bulb, make sure you run it for at least 10 hours continual use before testing the hot start.....just what they say bro :bow:

Awesome Brother! I'm very happy with the out-come... I never expected to turn out half this good....I'm pretty much pain free now, it's truly a wonderful thing, I can't remember when I haven't felt pain before....The doctors are amazed, I'm Amazed... I'm so glad I went through with it, I really had my doubts though, I will be honest....because of a prior failed back surgery, but this time I had an awesome Nero-surgeon that took his time and made sure it come out right...
