The timer I have has a rechargeable battery in it.Great stuff mate.
I had a ten minute power cut today which is annoyingly common. Seem to have been “upgrading” the power lines on the main road for years. So immediately opened the doors to the room. After 5 minutes we started shifting the plants out to a sunny bedroom next door. Then the power came on.
My first thought was buy an emergency battery backup light - we have one on the 1st/second floor depending on how you count already as building regs - but I need to figure out how to make sure the power fails in the night for it not to come on. Only during lights ON.
Beyond my ken - all I can think is a timer on the connection to the battery which my sparky will know more about.
@CaptainLucky - the waiting’s a killer isn’t it? Deliver it now damn it!
I have a huge list on its way. @DYNOMYCO for the next grow today hopefully.
@Bill284 - I am thinking about popping Sunday. I see a way to make it work with my setup. If the current girls look close enough to flipping by then. I have so many good new things in the safe sitting patiently waiting to burst. But my wife might kill me
If the power goes out it doesn't screw up flowering times.
That's all that matters.
A few extra hrs of darkness won't be detrimental.
If it's an extended period of time any veg girls just require a minute of light to disapate the flowering hormones.
A little portable power pack would be handy though.
Get the greenhouse finished so you can pop all those beans.
What's the hold up?
