Spider Farmer led grow light--less watts, more light

I'm officially worried about my SF G4500. it's only a year old, but this morning the problems began. At only 50%, I began to hear a series of popping sounds. I checked the LEDs themselves as I worried maybe some blew out. When I went to turn down the dimmer dial, the entire room tripped the breaker and went dark. I tried resetting the breaker with the lights still on, but the breaker tripped again. I have it at only 40% for now, but I'm about to switch back to my HLG 100 R Specs as I'm worried this thing will now cause an electrical fire. What do I do to get this light fixed? Keep in mind these HLGs are still flawless after like 2-3 years of use. If i move the dial on the G4500 to even 50%, it'll start crackling with electrical type sounds. I'm too scared to use this now while I'm out of the room; what can I do to fix this? This has me really shaken up as I feel like I already might have dodged a fire. I bought this directly from the manufacturers website.
