Trying to find out what type of cord is used for the lights? Not the driver but the actual light, looking to extend them in a different configuration. Thanks
The connections for the light to what I would call the ballast. I don’t own the light so can’t send a good pic of what I’m looking for.Can you take a pic of the cord/connector you're talking about?
I have the SE4500 and not sure if it's the same.
This is great information and much appreciated!Hey did you ever figure this out?
I have the SE4500, it looks the same as the G4500.
Here is pics of the actual cable, it looks like a DC power cable
Looks like the extension in link below.
I have no idea if it really is the same but it looks damn close.
If it is the same connection, the next step would be finding one with the proper gauge wire.
You could just splice and extend with a couple pieces of wire and conduit.
Just make sure to leave enough wire to put new wire onto the original connectors.
I would do that as a last resort if under warranty.
I was taking amperage readings at different intensity to calculate into watts and I remembered you asking about the cables so took a few pics.

I thought you were looking at the older G4500, the picture of the manual you posted was for the older G4500.This is great information and much appreciated!
Good call on the wire size, something I didn’t think about.
Im going to experiment with side lighting in a new grow space and looking for a dimmable light bar option that can be modified. I think these lights would make a great option for something like that.
The lights would not be blasting at full power and really only use during mid/late flower.
It’s hard to tell, but the newer series G seems different and may not have the DC style pigtails. I was hoping I could find one like yours used somewhere down the road.
This is all great information and I appreciate you taking the time. I’ll update you when this project happens!@Captspaulding
Maybe you can help!
You have the Spider Farmer G4500 right?
Can you look at my pictures below and tell me if your G4500 has the same led light bar connection as my SE4500
Trying to help the OP find extensions that fit the G4500 light bars so they can run them in a different configuration but not 100% if my SE4500 has the same type connections.
Thanks!
