It ran hard for 18 months or so with out a complaint, Think running in the summer with temps up to 97 should have had a fan on it to cool. I know duh Kismet.

I did have fans on them for the summer but reconfigged before the camping trip and spaced putting a fan on the drivers last week.

Enter record breaking heat wave. Kaput. Looking forward to seeing if these things have an actual fuse, I understand fuses. My kind of school.

You must have pushed that driver far and and beyond its specs my friend. She's got overload protection, short protection and high voltage protection all is auto reseting so lets hope for that fuse then... 
You are like me I'm very good at testing things to its breaking point, got to know were its at to have some sort of guidance to what a thing can handle. Lol!

The 2 plants in the 5 gallon buckets showed faster growth. So if i was only doing 4 plants would go straight from seedling pot to 5 gl buckets.
Takes a little longer to get them going but I usually transplant to their final pot very early.

I'm having trouble flipping some of the smaller pots/plants but i have clones up to fill in. Just hard for me to flip when they so scraggly hahaha. Taking a deep breath next week.
Flip them and see if they straighten up.

Great Kismet! I had my suspicion they would come ready mounted. That looks awesome! How many wattage are you putting out now in that tent, just a estimated guess?
Screwdriver found those screws on the busted driver yet?

600 watts from the wall CraZy. Still haven't fooled with the old driver yet. It's on my list though.
The tent looks great Kis! And I know Grandpa likes to flip stragglers and watch them take off in flower, so there's that.

Shize! I got barely 500W but that is measured with a dc ampmeter on led side of the driver.
Now you got a shitload of power to put in good use!

Seems about the right light saturation for the 4 by 4. I mean i could throw more light but um trying to keep the electric bill sane. And it has been.
