6. Operating Instructions
6.1 Powering On/Off
Once the grow light is properly assembled and plugged in, it will power on. To turn off, simply unplug the power cable.
6.2 Bloom & Veg Switch
The grow light features a dedicated switch to optimize the spectrum for different plant growth stages:
- VEG STAGE: For vegetative growth, turn OFF the Deep Red (660nm) and IR (730nm) LEDs. This setting promotes leafy growth.
- BLOOM STAGE: For flowering and fruiting, turn ON the Deep Red (660nm) and IR (730nm) LEDs. This setting encourages blooming.
6.3 Dimming Function (for QBD650MAX, QBD850MAX, QBD1200MAX, QBD1500MAX models)
Certain models are equipped with a 0-10V dimmable driver, allowing you to adjust the light intensity. Rotate the dimming knob on the driver to increase or decrease the brightness from 10% to 100%.
Note: Dimming is NOT possible with QBC600 and QBC650 PRO versions.
7. Maintenance
The Leclstar Quantum LED Grow Light is designed for stable and continuous operation with minimal maintenance due to its fanless design and efficient aluminum heat dissipation.
- Cleaning: Periodically wipe the surface of the LED board with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and debris. Ensure the light is unplugged before cleaning. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Inspection: Regularly check the hanging kit and power cable for any signs of wear or damage. Replace any damaged components immediately.
- Ventilation: Ensure the grow light is in an area with good airflow to maintain optimal operating temperatures.
8. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Light does not turn on | No power, loose connection, faulty power cable/driver | Check if the power cable is securely plugged into the outlet and the light. Ensure the outlet has power. Inspect the power cable and driver for damage. |
| Dimming function not working | Non-dimmable model, faulty dimmer knob, incorrect connection | Confirm your model (QBD650MAX, QBD850MAX, QBD1200MAX, QBD1500MAX) supports dimming. Check the connection of the dimmable driver. |
| Incorrect spectrum for growth stage | Bloom/Veg switch set incorrectly | Adjust the Bloom/Veg switch according to the plant's current growth stage (see Section 6.2). |
9. User Tips
- Verify Model Specifications: Always double-check the specific model number and its actual power consumption (e.g., 60W, 120W, 135W) when purchasing to ensure it meets your requirements. Not all models have the same features or power output.
- Input Voltage: The grow light is designed for 220V input. Ensure your electrical supply matches this requirement.
- Dimming Capability: Remember that only QBD650MAX, QBD850MAX, QBD1200MAX, and QBD1500MAX models offer dimming functionality via the knob dimmer. QBC600 and QBC650 PRO versions do not.
- No Growhub Integration: Based on available information, this grow light does not appear to have direct integration with "Growhub" or similar smart control systems. It operates with its built-in switches and dimming knob.
