I NEED HELP MOUNTING LIGHTS

[Dietrich]

hey everyone and thank you in advance for all of the help !
I have 2 spiderfarmer se3000 that I’m putting in my 3x3 but need help mounting 4 of the bar lights to the frame… I don’t want to use Velcro obviously but the light dont Weigh much at all and cant imagine them getting super hot cause they are only 300 watts a piece and driver is detachable

Hey man,
Not sure what to say. I’m new to led. But I have a question, is that too much light for a 3x3? I’m sure someone will chime in and guide you

I have a HLG600 in my 3x3 right now I’ve never put it past 80% And everything has been fine. I love HLG I just want more light coverage And the detachable drivers are a plus

Oh okay for sure. Idk why I thought I read 3 se3000. I just got the spider farmer G300 but haven’t opened it up yet. How were they attached to the frame originally or did it all come in pieces?

 

[Dietrich]

they Came in pieces but really easy to put together just snap the lights into then brackets and hook them up

 

[Ganjadad]

How do the brackets attach to the frame?
Do the brackets your taking off one frame not have a spot to attach to the second frame? Will zip ties work?

 

[Dietrich]

I had to remove some brackets to get the 2 frames to line up together so I can fit them in the 3x3 i guess I could drill more holes into the frame and replace the brackets but I don’t want to I figure 3m mounting tape might work

 

[Ganjadad]

There ya go, that’ll work. Do you think the heat might loosen up the adhesive?

 

[Dietrich]

Yeah i thought it would so I drilled thru the frame

Yeah i thought it would so I drilled thru the frame

I had 1 SE3000 in the 3x3 then I got a 5x5 after I bought a second SE3000, I didn't think there was room for 2 in the 3x3 tent, I also picked up an SF600 for the front of the tent seeing as I had room but its really just supplemental as there's only 35,000 lux off the light.

There was another guy here that also modified his 2 Se3000 to fit in the 3x3 and I think he added another light as well. I look back see if I can get that link

BehindEnemyLines + 2x SF SE3000 + 3x3 Grow

Since I finished my first crop, I’m going to use this new grow diary to show the Spider Farmer SE3000 they we’re so kind to send me after winning a contest. I already had a SF SE3000 I purchased and was able to rig both of the lights into my 3x3 tent… 😁😆😅 Wall to wall light coverage. Here soon...
