    When Did Spider Farmer Stop Using Meanwell Drivers?

    Well, the prodigal grow light continues its adventure. After touring the fine(?) city of St Paul, MN, it took a Greyhound down south yesterday, arriving in Palmetto, GA, last night around 9:30pm. This shocks me being as most everything (at least in the eastern) United States *has* to travel...

    When Did Spider Farmer Stop Using Meanwell Drivers?

    Good to hear you're pleased with the app. I'm no genius so I use what the app tells me and what the plants are looking like. I start out conservatively (not wanting to burn the seedlings) and then gradually ramp up the power/intensity a bit. One thing I like is measuring the perimeter to...

    I think you nailed it. It seems that HLG had the correct address on the shipping tag, according to the image they provided me. I guess those "extra" bar codes we find on packages are shipping directions that only the witch doctors at USPS who hold the scanners understand. Apparently they...

    Minimal equipment...Photone app on an old iPhone6. I'm sure it's not exact but the cost was good...I only paid for the full-spectrum add-on and cheap-out with a paper diffuser. Ramen-noodle budget here. Maybe it's getting me in the ballpark. :)

    When Did Spider Farmer Stop Using Meanwell Drivers?

    Yeah, it sucks. But, I think this is on HLG, not the USPS. Seems the shipping receipt I got from HLG had my correct address on it. The problem I think is that when they started entering my address to create a shipping label there system "auto-filled" the state and zip and nobody noticed...

    Well, the scheduled delivery for yesterday...hangers in place, ready to do some heavy rearranging of my other lights, excitement building. I've been tracking the light via USPS since it left Tennessee. Most of the day it showed it was "In transit" and "On time". Late afternoon I got a text...

    When Did Spider Farmer Stop Using Meanwell Drivers?

    I know this thread is a couple of years old but I wanted to just say "thanks" for the info here. I grow my own vegetable seedlings, mostly peppers and tomatoes. I bought a Viparspectra a couple of years ago due to it's Meanwell driver. It's a little XS1000...my first toe-dip into...
