I have a 240v 50amp light controller running 4,800watts , and i was wondering if i just hook up the high temp shutoff to the trigger cable? If so, it seems like it would be a clusterf*#@. Cuz my timer is on my trigger cable. I would have to plug the timer in the wall, then plug the high temp shut off unit into the timer, and then plug the trigger cable into the high temp shutoff unit.
I was also pondering.... If your temp gets too high, its because there is a problem (i.e. undone ducting, small a/c, faulty fans etc..). So the high temp shutoff unit shuts down the lights until conditions are back to acceptable levels, then turns them back on, right? or does it just stay off...? anyway, assuming that it turns power back on, the problem that is causing the high temp still exists and will cause the unit to continually reboot the lights, and then after a while (when heat builds up again) it will shut them down over and over again. This would for sure make your crop herm. I dont visit my grows for 3-4 days on end sometimes and if this happened i would be too late to catch it. Is that how this unit works, i have no experience with these...?
