Faven

Currently, Trolmaster is the best option for controlling both dimming and on/off functions. One Trolmaster can control up to 155-160 lights, with one LMA-14 lighting adapter needed for every 75-80 lights. 

Controllers that Work

• Trolmaster
• Vivosun (Amazon)

Controllers that Don't Work

• Luxx
• Gavita
• Spectre

Faven units can dim to about 35%-40% at their lowest setting. It is best to utilize this function in early flower. The goal is to slowly increase intensity starting day 1 of  flower and aim to be at 100% intensity by day 14/15 of flower. This eliminates any extra light stress plants can experience when introducing under canopy lighting.

Currently, the cheapest and best option is to use standard plastic pots that have been turned upside down. While this may be seen as "cheap,” it's often the best option for easy and fast setup and removal post-harvest. We are working to produce leg attachments that will integrate with Faven. In the meantime, pots or PVC brackets should be used to support each joint between lights.

Each grow will have a different optimal height based on how large of plants they grow. Ideally, lights are installed to sit above the container (both pots or rockwool) to mitigate any light being directed at the substrate. For example: if you grow in 2-gallon pots, then a 2-gallon pot flipped upside down will be the lowest height for those plants; if you are limited on table space, stack 1-gallon pots on top of each other until you reach the desired height. We are working to produce leg attachments that integrate with Faven.

Faven units come with a female RJ11 port (phone jack) with a waterproof cap to maintain our IP66 waterproofing rating. Inside, you will find an RJ11 piece plugged into the port. Remove this piece and replace it with an RJ11 cord (phone line) that will connect to the controller. Once plugged in, the controller will be able to dim and control on/off function.
