ARRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Got the Apex installed. Started redoing my LED's to dimmers. Blown 10 LED's!!!!!!!! The drivers I got are 1.3A and my existing LED's were .7A I tried turring them down, Guess it couldnt go down enough? Meter read .7a. V 47. But multiples blow at a time, all in parralel too. Then I knocked my auto feeder into the tank.... Its fubar. Trying to get what Blue dimmers I have to work with the RT settings AND act as a moonlight at like 10% setting. That MIGHT work. Dumped 3/4 bucket of salt as I had a Rage moment and booted it across the room...

Got a hole in my fridge door now too. Soldering Iron tip must be totally screwed cause its damn hot, but not tinning or melting solder. It got flyer miles.


Really, I'm not a rage person. I get mad yes. But even thats been under controll lately. I guess this divorce and everyhting is just breaking me.... I need a beer or 15


So, Anyways, I likle the Apex. Just not quite the programming logic I'm used to. PLC programmer and Indust Elect. I do more Boolean. If And Or. The Set, Fallback and the order is getting me.. Think I got the Moonlights via Main RB Cree's figured. We will see. Main lights OFF 120min after the RT setting, and RB, 180. No Dimming on my 5000K LED;s yet so its till a work in progress. Sometimes I wonder if I shoulda bought a AI or something. But had my DIY LED';s fopr 2 years now. Cost me $400 totall for 200W Up untill now
