Driver went out.

[dwilliams87]

Today while adjusting the potentiometer on my led setup, the led's flickered and then went off and will not come back on. I checked the resistance across the pot, it was good. I checked the output of the driver and it was 0. Any suggestions. By the way I have the Maxwellen Drivers.

I did, I'll probably have to wait until Moday for a response though. By the way after the lights were on the tank for a few days, I feel in love, you were right man. Should I put the driver from the whites on the blue until I get another one or keep it on the white? What would be better for the corals?

The blues look better that's for sure lol but I'm not sure it matters which color at least for few days. Glad u like the leds. Might put t5 on till driver is returned. But I'm really not sure if the lack of spectrum will harm them till u get fixed

Another Reason why i like meanwell drivers, lol. Not that they can't fail, just less chance.

 

[dwilliams87]

Are they dimmable by potentiometers though?

 

[mixer911]

Yea.

 

[dwilliams87]

I may see if they will sell me 2 of them then, and just drop the price for one of them for the replacement.

They are sending me a new driver. Just gotta wait for shipping. Que Jeperody Music.
