Can't power on my HLG 480 mockup

Hey, guys. I could use some help! Been over a day and I cant turn on my build I tried changing connectors, i tried cutting the wire and soldering, and nothing seems to get this HLG 480 C2100B on.

Re: Power plug has 2 black wires. No white.

No. Completely black. I think the one with writing on it is hot. Tried it out and got absolutely nothing. I'm afraid to try it the other way and blow the lights or something if it's wrong. Well i tried a different connector tonight too and it did nothing to fix it. I've been ready to set this up for...

Power plug has 2 black wires. No white.

Hey guys. I'm trying to wire up my power cord.

Re: Quantum Board Layout for a 4x4

No Co2. So the 140w would basically be overkill at that point?
In that case I may just use it to veg.

Thank you!

Quantum Board Layout for a 4x4

Hi! I’ve only been growing for about a year and a half. Started with a mars hydro 300, upgraded to a Spectrum King 140W almost a year ago, and now i’m building a rig much like this custom HLG 550 for my 4x4 space. I’m using 4x 288.2s from Atreum (they come with heatsinks) and a HLG 480 series driver...

Re: LED strips vs Quantum Boards for 4x4

So things have changed slightly. I threw out some furniture and moved my 2x2 outside of my 4x4. Now I can utilize the entire space and run a SCROG! This means I'll have to change my frame layout, and it means I may need to run my SK140 in conjunction with my 4 288.2s. I still have a mars hydro so I'...

Re: LED strips vs Quantum Boards for 4x4

True. Would I want to forget this all together and opt out for one with a cord included, so that I have enough length to reach the power outlet? Or should I just use a short extension cable? Trying to make this as easy as possible for myself since i'm new to electric. I just bought the pre-wired po...
