[@andrewgonda1371]

Hey brother, im using a digital ballast that can do both HPS and MH. To my understanding its the digital ballasts commonly used with HPS that is emitting some type of radio interference that throws the probe out of whack. I havent used the HPS light yet, but i was having similar symptoms with the MH. Apparantly also these digital ballasts can also mess up HAM radio operators signal. I made a cheap homemade faraday cage out of aluminim tape and a old shelf and shielded my ballast into a corner, and then i removed the probe from being cabled with the lights power cable to the ballast, and made sure the probe cable is far away as possible from ballast Edit- i also put the controller unit in a metal box with a lid

[@vicorjh4520]

Andrew has the most likely explanation. It's not the light emitted. It's the electromagnetic emissions outside of what we perceive as light that is causing interference with the electronics within the controller (susceptibility) or potentially via the long cable going to the probe (conducted radiation / conducted susceptibility). Think of the probe as though it were an antenna. It's receiving a bunch of noise from the noisy HPS.

[@twentytwo138]

Do you think it's the UV light emitted from those bulbs?

[@thefstopshere]

i had a similar issue when i started with the T6 when using an LED light but the cause was not the light but rather that i had the temp sensor cable and the power cable routed next to each other. as soon as i separated them, the readings straightened themselves out. Had the fan for 2 years now and love it.

[@MikeS-ur2ql]

Cut a hole in the bottom of a solo cup & slice it in thirds. Take the bottom third with the hole Put the probe through & it will now be mostly shaded with the cup from the hps Might have too add a degree or two for the indirect temp reading but this should be a little solution. If a cup is too big maybe just a 1x1 inch of cardboard above it too block the light as well

That’s strange, like you said it must be a few different variables at play in my scenario that’s causing the issue. I’ve started using a few LED lights and am able to use all the features of my T4 now, and I’ll be replacing my HPS with an LED next. Thanks for the comment! 🙂🤜

Another issue: during low temps, the T-series fan will turn off instead of running at a low speed. AC Infinity has fixed the issue but it might not hit shelves for a while. The S-series doesn't have this issue so if you cannot wait, buy the S-series fan and then add the Controller 67 separately.

What exactly about that type of light causes the sensor to flip? I wonder if you'd solve the issue by shielding the temp and humidity sensor. Perhaps use an empty 1 qt white yogurt container.

Might be the ballasts causing electromagnetic interference? Or the IR from the HPS bulb? I know a guy who told me they were rubbish and they were always off when calibrated to handheld sensors. I had a look after he got a new fan and he hadn't taken the shipping protector thing off the sensor lol

[@ElevatedAgriculture]

I’m not sure what it is exactly, but it’s definitely only happening when the ballast and light are on. That’s hilarious that he forgot to take the shipping protector off though 🤣

Glad I use LED and my shit be on set and forget 😁

[@ElevatedAgriculture]

Niiiice! Which LED are you using? 🤜

@@ElevatedAgriculture I use a mixture of an old-school purple vipar true 200w and a sf1000 in a 2 by 4 they both have over 600 ppfd at 12 inches, so they work nicely I also rotate my plants and grow multiple kinds, was thinking about making a KZbin but need a computer first 😁💚🤙🏼

herid py man love your vid funny thing is i just got of my hps bulds haha good timming

[@ElevatedAgriculture]

Lol thank you for the comment man, that is funny timing 😅🤜

[@JdubbJdubb]

Will it work with cmh ?

[@ElevatedAgriculture]

Oddly enough, it worked most of the time with my CMH, it was really just the HPS bulb that messed with it.

[@jaydubay9439]

@@ElevatedAgriculture CMH uses a Square wave frequency ballast, Unlike HPS. That's why CMH won't screw with your electronics or cable tv. It's all in the frequency waves produced by the Ballast. Remember when electronic HPS ballast came on the scene?? The cable guys were running their ass's off trying to fix the screwd up signals! Until they realized it was growers causing all the Fuss with their ballast 🤣 Manufacturers scrambled to filter it out, And did for cable tv. But plenty of other frequencies are still emit from HPS ballast. 👌

[@5h1tfuk]

I think it has something to do with the heat the light produces. Haven’t had the pleasure of using any. Have used CFLs, or LED “Quantum Boards” I have heard though that HPS has a slightly different light intensity. Possibly some IR 🤔 unsure exactly. That in turn causes a higher heat temp (air and leaf surface) then what most people getting into LED lighting offers. LED has different lighting wavelengths. Also lower temps, usually 😅 Stay Frosty Growmies

[@ElevatedAgriculture]

I believe it’s something to do with the ballast and the unshielded probe wire, not necessarily the heat. I definitely like growing with the LED lights I have, the cooler temps make keeping a steady environment a bit easier for sure.

Should have spent money on led lights and you’d be golden haha

[@remainanonymous2016]

Haha who uses hps these days!? Noob! 🤣🤣🤣

[@left4hash317]

Why you say use led?

[@ElevatedAgriculture]

True, and if I could afford it I would have went LED- but at the time I couldn’t and for the price HPS was the best way to go. Also, I’m now growing in my garage in the winter, so the extra heat from the HPS is super helpful and means I don’t have to run a heater.

[@Dopamine-87]

@@ElevatedAgriculture ignore these noobs mate, they have no idea. I run hps and led lights in 2 different tents. Hps for the tent outside in a shed where its cold in winter 👌 led for the tent inside

[@PeterKKraus]

@@remainanonymous2016 That doesn't mean noob. It means old tech.

[@aplovesweed8878]

Good info. TY I'm a newbie

[@chrissilva5659]

How could it do that ?

[@ElevatedAgriculture]

I believe it has to do with the magnetic output of the HPS ballast interfering with the unshielded probe cable, but I’m not 100% sure.

[@CohlTrain]

Why would you even go with a light that has significantly more of a fire risk than an led

[@plantman5126]

So my T4 just did this, but only for a second. I don't have HPS. I have 2 TSW200s in a 3x3 which is a lot of heat.

[@ElevatedAgriculture]

My T4 is now giving me no temperature or humidity after about a minute of having the probe in, under my SP3000. I’m going to reach out to AC Infinity and see what they say 🤷🏼‍♂️
