My house stays around 55 percent tent varies from 30 to 40. But nice point on the humidity. When i go back to veg its 60 to 80
How are you able to keep your tent so much lower than your house without a de-humidifier? If you have proper air exchange with the room and tent, the tent humidity would maintain around 55....

considering that fake boards aren't fake necessarily just just do your home work you have to work out if they are a middleman or the actual manufacturer so ask propper questions also original boards are made in china too , you have to realise when dealing with china they will trip over backwards to make a sale and every thing is made to order so there is a wait and need paying upfront

The manufacturer is Samsung so anyone you deal with outside of buying from Samsung is a middleman. Half the vendors on Alibaba couldn't care about you so your odds of getting the product you pay for are 50%. Are you sure HLG boards are being made in China

yes they certainly used to be hanson technology i believe i went though this while back while researching board manufacturers even asked hlg who confirmed it , i wouldn't knock chinna too much as i know in my house most of my stuff has been made there or has parts from there
at the end of the day you have to ask for proof from the suppliers and do your research thats down to you . chinna does business differently than we do in the uk and does feel a bit dodgy at times its also like a barter system, also you don't have to buy a lot you can do a test order you can do the enscrew payments which means you can get your money back or some of it if what you buy some thing and it not correct . as its so far away it does feel like your money is going into the either i've done lots of transactions and all have been great

Why are you badmouthing China? Please don't bring Race or anything like that into the discussion. Stick to the topic at hand please. And to clarify your misinformation HLG used to deal with Hanson, they do not still do as you wrote in your post above.

Take that fuse shit off, mate.
Your circuit was fine until you added that shit.
Now it is an unsafe, hazardous mess.
The drivers have protection circuits inside that will override it in case of most errors.
All you need to do is provide a safe connection to a plug and make sure there is electrical conductivity from the driver to all heatsinks so the stuff can be grounded..

The original hlg boards were made in China they only had the 304 boards at first that were lm561b or s5 bin the old company name was northern grow lights. They changed names and made the 288 after like a year they started us production.

We all know they were originally made in China. That's why I corrected your above post to clarify they are no longer being made there. Not sure why your having such a hissy fit when all I did was correct the fact that they are not currently being made there.

@ILikeBigBudz87 ....don't listen to him....It clearly is lacking the proper amount of duct tape to make it safe...aka add more duct tape!

I'd say that is possible a C
Except I'm not sure what to make of all the mess around the orange coating.
