Multimeter Suggestions and How Do I Measure?

No problem at all. Heat isn't much of an issue at all, if anything I've been fighting to keep temps up. Running at 84% of max with only a wal-mart 6" fan blowing over the light keeps everything cool to touch.

Ha wish that was my issue...In HI and costs way too much for AC, so always battling heat and humidity. Excited to get these puppies fired up

Ya man, im having same issues.

I just recently switched to LED from hps/cmh.

I have 2 x 480 watt strip fixtures running and couldn't get temps above 78-79f in a 6x14 space, temps weren't even hitting high enough to kick exhaust on.

I had to place my 315 cmh in the room and now i got my temps up to 84 and holding steady. Trying to stay within optimal range on the VPD chart and keep the room dialed in there.

side-note: absolutely amazing craftsmanship on that build man, its beautiful.

Thanks, it turned out well for being built with scrap parts. I really hope the word gets out that the drop down ceiling brackets are the perfect heat sink for those strips and conveniently comes in 1', 2', and 4' lengths.
