yeah if you stir it up on a regular basis you will be fine. If you do it once a year you will have a bad time.

Great Thread!!!!!!!

Can I have a copy of your graph?

What is the color percentages/ K value at your peak node? the one that would be high noon/ 7:30ish on your time schedule?

Thanks

Hello eastamherstbias,

Can you do me and maybe a few other around here what the par readings would be for a G1 with TIR lens with the intensity set a 75%

I would greatly appreciate it
Thanks

Thanks it would be nice to know what the par levels are when the intensity is reduced.

I'd be interested too.

Is it a linear change is it half the par at 50%strength? Or does par drop faster?

I don't know that's why I asked if he could test again for 75% intensity. I doubt it drops drastically but we shall see soon enough.

I've got a question. I've seen several references to ".etg" files. Now I'm assuming these are the files that store your particular settings. But I don't see one of these files in my directory anywhere.
Is this bc I'm using one of the templates and just modifying it slightly for my wants?
Anyone know?

erndog,

The .etg you are referring to, is only necessary when trying to save your EcoSmart Live schedule to your computer. To do this, select "Schedule Options" then "Export Schedule".

Haven't even got around to doing the tests. I have my grid ready to go. Once my week calms down from work by the end of the week, I will do it. It will be up by monday.

It would be interesting to know if it is a linear change or not. I never thought about it that way. I assumed 50% intensity of my radion pro would give me 50% par of max intensity. Very interested in the results. Thanks for doing this.
