got a bigger what ?

I don't like those yo-yo hangers. If your hood is heavy and the hanger slips, your light will crush your ladies. Chains are not fancy but will give you the best peace of mind.

The yoyos kinda suck specially if your using a bat wing that isn't enough weight to keep them down. When I used them with a bat wing I fastened a 1 pound weight on the top to keep the yoyo down. Heavy hoods seem to do all right. There is a tension screw on the side that you set to your hoods weight. Once set it should stay in place and go up when you push up on the hood or down when you pull. I like the ratchet ones.

If your light isnt heavy enough to counter weight the yoyos then just attach the hood to the strings and pull out as much slack as you want and then tighten the screws all the way. I used them this way for my past 2 grows and this time I decided to use them as they're intended and it does make watering in my tent a lot easier lol

Rachets are much much better just keep their ropes away from hot reflector or in the light as the rope will melt or dryrot....I tested that for everyone your welcome lol

I use the ones you've posted a picture of Julie.

They are called EZROLLERS.

The butterfly screw as you tighten it will get to a point that will allow your reflector to move up and down and hold in the position you leave it in.

So basically you attach these to a ceiling or tent pole, then attach your reflector.

You loosen the butterfly screw until your reflector begins to pull down the rollers.

Then you tighten the butterfly screw until you lift your reflector up or down and wherever you stop it holds it in place.

I currently use 2 of these on my ADJUSTAWING but have used 4x of them on a BLOCKBUSTER 6".

They work great and in order to move your reflector you only have to lift it up or pull it down to adjust the height, no messing around with eye hooks and chain.

The YOYO's are confusing
But other things are also confusing - like that stuff the plants like to drink
Every time I try to pick some up - my fingers just sink into it....!
How are you supposed to handle something as weird as that????
