You don’t need to hook up dimmer if you don’t want to. It’s just a feature that they have.

Similar looking to the hlg-550. Pretty much what you’ll be building, just for several hundred dollars less.

Get 3000k

You’ll need some other stuff. Get a spool of 18awg solid rated for 300v or higher.

Do you want 1 power cord or two?

33

Quick note I have some aluminum diamond plate that should work for center part of light correct

34

Leave it open to get better air flow through your tent.

I’ll get the 18awg from Home Depot tomorrow and I just don’t want drivers to heat up my tent lol and I hear wagos are way easier then the soldiering

39

They’ll put off a little heat, so if you want them outside that’s fine.

Home Depot by me doesn’t carry the wire you’ll need.
