I bought a brand ne mars hydro fce1500 light bar on mars website and my first problem was that the middle bar would not work at all after weeks of being in contact with their warranty the had sent me a new driver which did not fix the problem and im so tired of back and forth with their warranty bs i just want to send it all back and get my money back but they are just being completely difficult so im done. So im at the point i have 2 150 w drivers and no working light meanwhile my plants are barely holding on. Do my question is if anyone know how i can get my hands on a light bar without a driver that i can use on one of these drivers on before my babys perish. Any help much appreciated idk what else to turn to i cant afforded another full light
You can get the kits from HLG
If there was some way to share address’s I have 2 spider farmer se 7000’s that the drivers stopped working. I would be willing to send your way, just cover cost of shipping.
dude!That is very generous of you! this is what i love about this community!!! props to you for helping this guy out.
I second this everyone on here is usually so much help this is why its always my go to place for anything growing people are just awesome.
I would even pay you for them im sure we can work something out on getting info exchanged
I know I posted my email on here once and the mods took it down, it was against policy, let me reach out to a mod and see what we can do.

Is it possible to exchange info without breaking rules?
have you checked wiring on the middle bar? I do LED signs and sometimes the wires come loose and its pretty much a quick reconnect and everything works after. If the other lights work its probably a simple fix and since mars isnt working with you on a return it wont hurt to open it up. One other issue ive run into is driver (power source) not having enough power but that usually results in a blinking light. You can try running a power source directly to your center light and see if it lights up. DO NOT run straight 120v to it.
