-
Maximise the efficiency and control of your HID or LED grow light system with the LUMii Extension/Link Lead. This essential UK hydroponics accessory is designed to provide flexible ballast placement, allowing you to position your LUMii Black Digital Ballast outside your grow room or grow tent. By keeping the ballast remote, you achieve superior grow room heat management and easier access for adjusting your light settings, helping to maintain the perfect indoor gardening climate for optimal plant growth and increased yields. The leads come in various lengths and heavy duty 1.5mm² core to suit any setup.
Key Benefits of Using the LUMii Extension/Link Lead
- Optimise Heat Management: Relocate your digital ballast up to 10 metres away from the LED fixture or HID lamp, preventing unnecessary heat build-up inside the sensitive grow environment.
- Flexible Setup: Essential for configurations using two ballasts (e.g., with the LUMii Black² 720/960 LED) or when splitting a fixture into two separate units.
- Convenient Access: Position the ballast controls outside the grow tent for easy dimming and power adjustments without disturbing the plant canopy.
- Versatile Lengths: Available in both 1.5 metre and 5 metre options to perfectly suit small tents or large commercial grow rooms.
- Heavy Duty Wire Gauges: 3 x 1.5 mm strand to match the power requirements and distance of your specific lighting setup.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need an Extension/Link Lead for my LED grow light?
The primary benefit is heat management. Digital ballasts generate heat, and positioning them remotely (outside the grow tent/room) using an extension lead drastically reduces the heat load inside your growing area, making temperature control easier and more stable for your plants. It's also necessary when using two ballasts with a single LED fixture.Are the LUMii Extension/Link Leads compatible with all grow lights?
These leads are specifically designed with the proprietary connector for LUMii products, including the LUMii Black 600W Digital Ballast and the LUMii Black² LED fixtures. While they should be compatible with other brands we can not confirm this.How far can I extend my ballast from my fixture using this lead?
LUMii advises that the ballast can be positioned up to 10 metres away from the fixture. You can achieve this using the 5-metre lead or by linking multiple leads together, ensuring you use the correct wire gauge for the total distance and power draw.What is the difference between the 3 x 0.75 mm and 3 x 1.5 mm strand leads?
The difference is the wire gauge (thickness). The 3 x 1.5 mm strand lead uses a thicker gauge wire, which is better for minimising voltage drop over longer distances (like the 5-metre run) or when running at the higher power settings on the ballast. For shorter distances (1.5m), the 3 x 0.75 mm strand is typically sufficient.SKU: 1143 Free delivery on orders over £60*
