After looking around on here I decided to check out the geek beast pro on Ali baba. I ended up finding the new Monster Boards and really like the look of the 320w version. I emailed the seller and apparently the driver is a meanwell 320h-48ab and is 1-10v dimming and won’t work correctly with the Bluetooth dimmer/controller they offer with the larger boards and geek beast pro. The ad says they plan to upgrade something later on so it will but the person I talked to said that’s not the case for the 320w and smaller boards. Regardless of what they say would there be anyway I could wire something in to the Infrared and uv independent switches that come off the board so I can use some type of a timer for them separately? I would really like to use a Bluetooth timer and dimmer for the whole setup if possible. Thanks

cc is constant current driver while cv is the constant voltage driver type.

Would you be happy with a wifi (no bluetooth) dimmer? The Bluefish controller does 0-10 volts and PWM.

Ahh okay, I’m not exactly sure which type of driver the 320h-48ab is but I was thinking earlier why don’t I just swap out the driver to something that is 0-10v dimming and sell the one that comes with the light. Then I could use the setup geek beast sells. What driver would work to replace the 320h-48ab? Here’s the light information

Also, I do love the bluefish and have spent hours looking over the mini’s manual and the regular bluefish manual when I was going to build a light but I’m not sure if I want to spend $200 just for one light and I don’t really use WiFi much. Also, since all the lights on all 3 boards use the same driver I’m not quite sure how I would wire in the bluefish to each separate spectrum unless I wired into the individual ir/uv switches that connect to the panel. Would this be possible?
