question is can you look into the led’s with glasses on? Without too much “ damage “

Are you taking about led’s like and cobs ? Cause I realize you should wear them ( protection glasses ) , but sometimes I have to take em off for split seconds and look around or adjust things . Your making it sound like stronger than the sun lol

I realize you your not suppose to look into the sun, but you can for a second without “ crazy” damage , you have to still get shit done if your glasses are in the way ( and I’m all about safety cause I wear chem coveralls , construction helmet whole time,rubber boots , grower room eyes wear ,black lightning gloves whole time , hand sanitizer in between each plant and iso my scisccor same way + shit tons of things )

Question is with protection, while working, looking at the lights, a led ( up) is going to damage your eyes so much? I thought that was the point of the glasses ( not trying to sound like a douche or fight ya on it , want to learn more or less so can correct it that’s the truth)

My question would be when your deleafing/working under a canopy, “policy for never to look at lights” Inless you look down and then close your eyes when you look up or be under the canopy = “ your safe” , that’s jut not a very good efficient way of finding the leafs or farming.
I work like a workhorse ( like 2-6 hours deleafing, or at least In flower room and a rule Iike I must always look at the ground or never look at the light seems preety sketch when it’s 6-8 inches sprydx plus from my head or 12-16 on a cob.

not arguing , trying to learning . Might have to call the eyewear company (method seven) and ask them what their viewpoints are and then the led’ s viewpoints (fluence and Timber ).
I’ll get back with you guys if they say anything otherwise!

As a welder for many, many years I prefer not to look into any bright lite.

The new LED headlights violate my vision!

My favorite eye protection for the grow room is a visor.

I guess I am getting a little bit excited about getting these lights lit up.
I'll need to run to Lowes today and pick up about 30 ft of 14/2 S.O. cord to remote mount these drivers.
And I also need to design a frame structure to position all 4 panels.

You might consider NOT mounting them on a frame. One of the beauties is being able to adjust different lights for different height plants.

I agree for most setups separate mounting would surely work best.
But for mine it will be to my advantage to be rigidly connected.
My canopy averages 30ish" in height, that's including the stretch.
The first half of the stretch is trained under net. I guess I kinda quasi scrog.
So my canopy is fairly flat.

I think I am set with lights for now ....

1291 watts in a 5 x 5 tent. I have oodles of intensity and plenty of UV and IR from the driverless cobs.
