far as i know meanwell drivers need a pwm signal which that simple kit gives through its power. the basic pots the kit comes with are not powered and wont send the signal the meanwell drivers need to turn on and dim. maxwellen drivers which is what im using dont so u run without power but cant control like u can meanwell.
You are right the pods don't have power I think he is talking about adjusting the blues and whites to get the look he wants But as you can see there are so many ways you can go with led lighting
 
You guys sounded really smart I though am confused.
I think the kit looks perfect, I really don't want to buy an expensive controller, I would like to be able to turn all white or blue and have each adjustable if possible, I really like the really rich color blue can I purchase a couple more LEDs to add to kit or no without needing anything else. How long does it take to ship here?
 
the drivers with the kit can run up to 12 leds each so u could add 5 more to each driver with out having to buy anything else exept leds/optics. shipping does take a while lke 7-10days
 
u probly dont even need optics to be honest in a 9g tank 14 leds will be more than enough even without optics for anything u wanna grow in there.
