Lights Going Out

  1. This is day two of running my 400w HPS lights. Today, they have gone out a few times for about 5-15 seconds then turn back on what could be the problem?

    I have the "Earth Worth 400 Watt Gorilla Grower Grow Light Kit
     
  2. If it is just the bulb cutting off, not the ballast, odds are the bulb may be defective. Unplug it and ensure the bulb is secure. Not too tight but nice and snug. Got a warranty? Send that shit back.
     
  3. I've had cheap bulbs do this to me as well, get a hortilux

  4. Sounds like a bad bulb. Ive seen them do that and its usually a matter of time before they shut off and wont come back on.
     
  5. It seems it was the timer that was messing up. I removed it and had not had a problem since.
     
    I will leave the light on during the day for a while to make sure it was not a heat issue as it started acting up yesterday during the day.
