@MichaelReefer something along the lines of this. this says its 12-24v

I'll try this out. I will say one of the things I dislike about the Santa Monica is if I put two lights on (one on both sides) it is too bright, but if I only put one I only get growth on one side. I will try this, thank you!

Thanks for the help! I got two of them and hooked them up, two days later and seems like it's doing better- I guess only time will tell.
no problem glad i could help. if its already growing better after 2 days you should be good to go. over time you can mess with the brightness and see where it works best without burning it up.

Update:

Choked the lights back about 50% and doing MUCH better. The sheet is filling in- still in that "slimy" stage.

Thank you again Nick! Not sure how anyone gets this thing to grow stuff with no dimmers lol.
