How to connect linking rails to the fixtures?

[Leyth]

Hello, I picked up a couple of photon v2+ and a set of linking rails. Was wondering if you knew what size T-nuts I would need? Thanks ahead.

Hey there!

The kit should include everything you need- in addition to the rails there should be 8x T slot nuts.

The lights have 8 x bolts on top. However if you plan on using the hanging kit, you may need additional bolts. Those are custom made to spec, and I have that part on hand if needed.

Oh, weird, maybe I missed it in the packaging. I'll check the boxes again. Thank you.

Edit: Lol I found them, glad I didn't throw the boxes away.

Actually, I have another question. Is there a trick to tightening the T-nuts?

You don't tighten them all the way- just thread them on enough for the rails to slide in. The weight of the lights holds the nuts in place when they are installed.

Perfect, that's what I did just wanted to make sure that was correct. Thank you.
