Lighting control units manage switching and dimming for one or more grow lights from a single device. This collection includes the Cli-Mate Mini Controller 2x600W, which switches two HPS lamps safely without overloading your timer, the Platinum Smart Controller RJ14 for dimming compatible Platinum fixtures, and the Lumen King LED Controller Eco Line. Choose based on what you run: a switching unit for multiple HPS lamps, or a smart controller for dimmable LED or electronic ballasts. Check the connector type and the maximum load before you buy. See more in controllers and timers & contactors.
