WW Auto - Take 5

These? Only $120 on amazon. Seems to match your description…

Edit: apparently the power supply isn’t included

Amazon has this as frequently bought together. $200 for all three

Yeah, but look around and see if you can do better on price.

Thanks @imSICKkid for da info. (I built my lights d.i.y.)

That all looks good to me, unless you have any objections, I think I’ll go with those.

Hopefully those 3 items come with good instructions though… This is probably a dumb question, but I’m not going to need 4 plug-ins right? I assume they’re all wired to one…

They will be wired in series. The driver you want to get is the HLG-240H-C2100A. Go to Octopart(dot)com and it will show everyone that sells it and you can compare pricing

I think that’s the same model they have listed with the other items. But I looks like a power cord isn’t included and needs to be purchased separately. How am I supposed to know what to get? Would this work?

Oh wow, okay this is sounding a little more complex than I anticipated. I don’t suppose you know of a good tutorial video? This is starting to feel a little intimidating :laughing:

Haha it’s not bad at all. If you decide to do it I will walk you through all the stuff. It’s no big deal at all

If you go to Home Depot they sell pre cut pieces. I would get 6 pieces of 28 to 30" long, 1/8 inch thickness

Your going to have 4 boards total. I ran this same light in a 30x30 tent. It’s just all how you lay it out

This is how I built mine. The aluminum frame in the picture is 28 x 28 inches. So it will work for you too

Nice, looks good. I’ve also been looking at some other options, particularly with R-Spec. Sounds like this is a lot better for flowering, so I’m seriously considering biting the bullet so to speak and opting for this. Thoughts?

That’s a great light. The only thing that would bug me is the boards will be end to end. It would work though. You wouldnt ever crank up the power because it’s a little too much light in that tent. Good choice though

You could diy that exact light instead of buying it prebuilt and you would save a little

I agree, I’d go with 288’s the preferred kit would be 260xw. Otherwise get the stuff and frame them up side by side.

I ended up ordering the 260 V2 rspec I linked to earlier. Ultimately the convenience of having everything together sold me. I’m pretty happy with the purchase, hopefully it’s the last light I’ll need to get. I ended up passing on the 120 4x because it isn’t the best for flowering and I just got the sense if I went that route I’d be making another purchase down the line. Thanks for all your help @imSICKkid

January 22nd, around 10 pm, I planted 1 WW auto into ProMix HP. I gave her 2 teaspoons of RO water and placed a cut off 20 oz bottle over it for a dome and sprayed it water this morning as suggested by @Myfriendis410

Isn’t the best for flowering??? Haha Idk who told you that but either of those lights work. This plant was grown under my QB120’S

Okay that was probably a bit of an overstatement. :laughing: Idk, what I read about rspec sold me enough to opt for the 260w V2 rspec. Ah well, to late now, I already placed the order and don’t feel like canceling. Worse case I spent a little more than I needed to, but hopefully it pays off.
