User manual for 23 - 32 Led Light
2) Flowering mode
– This provides the correct spectrum for flowering. It can also be
used to provide faster and slightly 'stretchier' growth for mother plants when you
wish to take cuttings . It is recommended that you switch to this mode 1 or 2 weeks
before either switching to shorter light periods for flowering or taking cuttings for
cloning. The power output in this mode is 32 watts.
•Timers and Extension cords
Your light can be used with any type of timer; mechanical or electronic.
I recommend not using more than 560 watts of led lights per timer. If you have more than
this, I recommend using more than 1 timer and setting the timers so they come on at
slightly different times. This is to avoid the possibility of the inrush current blowing a fuse
or circuit breaker. Although the lights draw very little power when they are on, when they
are first switched on they create what is called an 'inrush current'. This is a short period
(about 1/100) of a second where the power supplies draw a large amount of power as they
charge their capacitors and stabilise.
Having said that, I would always recommend buying a decent timer as it will be more
reliable and last longer.
I recommend you do NOT use any extension cords or multi-plugs which have a power on
light or lighted switch. These seem to allow a tiny trickle of power through (possibly via
ground leakage) which is enough to make the leds glow slightly when the light is
switched off! If you see this problem, simply change your extension cord for a plain one
and the leds won't glow!
