ManImTheMan Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 so I have a jbj 28g HQ 150mh and 2 18w pc actinics, and a ecoexotic (magenta) led strip. so about a month ago my ecoexotic led strip stared blinking once every second briefly. I unplugged it as I have been working a lot. then today my actincs started doing the same thing? I switched out the power source on the ecoxotic strip. cause I have the same strip but a different color on another tank I have. and the light were still doing the same thing? anybody have any ideas whats wrong?

+Mitch Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 no. have you tried isolating the lights to another circuit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esacjack Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 you need to start looking for a grounding fault, or water in the power supply/power plugs. I've also seen this happen with cheap light timers. I have one that drives me freaking crazy. It was recently replaced by a proper controller though. It could be as scary as saltwater in the connection, or as simple as you're drawing too much power for the rating of the timer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
