dawn and dusk

[freduy20]

hello all,

there is any timer with the dimmer option to simulate dawn and dusk, not only to turn on and off the ligth.
for example turn on the ligths at 7 am by 10 %intensity 5 min later 30 % and so on to get 100 %

Check out the ACLS System from Sfiligoi. It's the only true MH dimming system that I know of.

Very cool system and they make really nice pendents too.

The Solar dimmers work with VHO bulbs.

The ACLS is for MH

There is an option to hook up dimming T5HO ballasts to the IKS controller and make it work, but otherwise, I don't know of an "automatic" dimmer for the T5HO--what they have are standard dimmable T5HO ballasts that the easiest thing to do is hook up to a standard dimming switch, but it's manual....the IKS can run it automatically. I think so can the ELOS controller.

You can just have actinics on before and after your MH.
