Well I have been wanting to add some loc-line to my returns to direct some flow towards some dead spots in the back. When I went to do so I couldn't reach anything with my canopy in the way.
That leads to what my task was for the day. Ditching the canopy and my Vhos, and hanging my lights from the ceiling with the replacing of the vhos by a Super Actinic spectrum LED from Build my LED.
I ordered an Aqua Illuminations hanging kit so I would have some maneuverability, and picked up some shelving rails and nuts a bolts from Home Depot.
All mounted and ready to hang!
Well, I have the greatest girlfriend in the world! The right hanging mount came flying out of the ceiling right as we were hanging the lights and the right evo150 dunked into the water for a second before she saved it!!
I pulled it apart and have it sitting open with some fans so it can dry out, but nothing was on so hopefully nothing was hurt or damaged. I'm leaving it overnight just to be safe.
Well the rooms a mess and I have to wait until tomorrow but basically the bolt that mounted into the ceiling wasn't long enough to let the brace spring horizontal so it could hold. Bu of course you can see that since it was covered by the covering for the hole. So I have to get a longer bolt so it can get high enough for the brace to spring. Then we will try again.
It could have been a lot worse so I am thankful!
