DIY Dimmable RapidLED Kit - Converting from MH's

Hey, very cool diy led project. I'm in the process of doing the same thing. I have a quick question about the actual dimmer box. How many driver can I run off of the 9v power supply? I have 8 driver, and wanted to see how many 9v power supply I would need, and how I would run it.

 

One is just fine. It is only providing a voltage signal to each driver. Therefore, there's no real load on the wallwort.

You simply use one and run each of your POTs in parallel with the wallwort.

 

Hey evolved, I just wanted to thank you to post this thread, placed an order on RapidLED site.

Compliments,
can I know how much cost your lamp?

Have you think to drive the lamp with Arduino?

Ciao form Italy

 

Price breakdown is on page 6, post #53. (prices are in USD).

I assume Arduino is a type of controller? You can set up arrays to dim from a controller, but you must make sure the driver is compatible with the controller. I chose not to go this route, as I do not run a controller.

 

How about a growth update? Yes?

Re-hashing some shots from earlier in this thread (taken 10/25/10), and comparing them against some shots taken yesterday (4/11/11).

*Sidenote: I do not target feed anything*

Enjoy.

 

Nice. Are the newer shots, first or second?

 

About time, bro!

Amazing growth. Absolute beauty. Getting better and better.

Thanks for the update!

 

2nd on each set.

Thank you.

 

Good growth.
