That electrical is some impressive and well thought out! Wow!

Nice job on the electrical. The UPS is a nice addition
Have you ever had your power go out for an extended period ? We did a couple years ago for the first time in 17 years. It was out overnight and I had to run the gas fireplace. Because of that, I have a BU battery for my Vortechs that can run both at 50% for up to 36 hours. If you're interested I'll send you the link for that little build.
And, sorry, I don't mean to be critical ...
Is there much heat thrown by those ballasts ? I was wondering how it may affect your powerbars

Not really lol the panduit hides all the mess.

Ive been using that ups for a couple years and Ive had the power go out a couple times for an hour or so. I had to adjust what I had powered off of it but I would get almost an. I hour running 2t5s, a 200w heater and an mp10. (The first power outage using it I had everything on it lol lasted 5 min rofl) I was thinking of getting the vortech one but I like picking what runs.

From what I've seen from these ballasts they don't really produce any heat at all barely warm.

Today I was looking at micro pc setups and might throw one in there to remotely log in and program everything (profilux & radions). Then put a lcd moitor in there just to.look cool lol. Maybe even some web cams later.

If you do decide to get one and want to save some money, I built mine for under $100 and it will run longer than the OE unit. You can decide how many pumps to hook up to it.

Have you seen an EEE before ? :smile: They originally came out with a 7" screen, but I think they have 10" now

Lol I have the original eeepc 7" somewhere in my house :redface:

Stick it in your electrical box :biggrin:
If I had one lying around, I would have hooked it up to my RKE instead of running a 20' cable

I have to find it lol

As I was looking at all the equipment you have in your electical box (and it looks impressive!) I was wondering if you have any ventelation to disperse the heat, or is there so little heat that it is not an issue? I will not have room in my stand for this kind of box but will likely build something to to sit beside my stand and I am trying to think through the construction of it.

I had thought about the heat building up but the only thing producing heat is the Radion ballasts and they barely produce any heat. If I was still running halides I would have a fan pressuring the box to also force any humidity out (still might for that reason). Also the front is going to be a magnetic skin so it's not sealed in the front.

Couldn't find the eeepc but I did come across my old convertible pc. The screen folds over to become a tablet.

Its sitting with the keyboard down so I locked it out and only use the stylus and remote log in to use it.

Also got the light rack built and hung today

It's aluminium angle that I made a box out of and the Radions just sit in the channel

I know it looks like the the sol is 10x brighter in the last pic but the radions were only at 20% when I took it.
