Assembly was fast, but I plugged my light in, and it's not coming on. I double checked the outlet, and it's working fine. Anything I'm missing?

My light recently stopped working after 2.5 years of daily use. I replaced the bulbs but that did not work. Usually this is a sign that the ballast needs replacing. I can't find it however even after removing the ends and looking down the tube. Before I take it apart any further I'd like to know if anyone else has done this repair successfully. I contacted Hydrofarm. I have not yet heard back. Here is there support page: https://www.hydrofarm.com/support

No. My first one didn't work either. I contacted the company, and even after telling them that I bought the 4 foot light, they sent me a 2 foot replacement. By the time they sent me the right one, it was too late to start my seeds for the summer!

Kristen,as far as the light goes there is the two pieces of foam holding the light and the plug . The plug can only go in one way.You may have a defective bulbs.

Did you push the reset button on the power plug? I think that has to be done. My LED lights came on when the unit started. However, since it is in my bedroom, I had to turn it off for sleep purposes. The LED lights are not on if the power is not on, I think.

Just tried unplugging and plugging into power. Light was on prior to plugging into power. Light did not come on after energized. Needed to be switched on

just make sure its charged up. mine came charged. see if it has a color lite when you plug it in and see if it changes when it's charged.

I wish I could help you. I was very satisfied with the light and had no problems getting it to light up.

I've noticed mine does not start up very well. Twist the bulb as if removing and then reinstall. It won't start immediately. Also, the indicator is not an LED like it looks, just a lens to the inside. Turn of the lights or shield ambient light, it might be on, you just can see it.

Make sure that it is installed completely. The first time I put mine in, it did the same thing. It wasn't completely in the "slot" or whatever you want to call it. Open the side panel and re-insert the lamp. Make sure it fits snug. Also make sure to put the initial cover back on tightly. I didn't and the light just kept blinking.

Did you turn it on using the nob in the from first. Try that first. If not, check your outlet and try plug to another outlet. And if thats not the case you have to send it back for a new one. I hope thats kind of helpful.

Try with the switch on the light assembly in all positions, if still not working recheck the wiring connections. After that I would probably follow procedures for returning a defective unit.

I plugged it into my wall outlet and it works fine. If it is not working plugged in, something is wrong. Mine works perfectly and I am very happy with it. Perhaps try taking it around the house to see if maybe the outlet is functioning properly.

Make sure that the green indicator light is glowing on the plug-in end of the adapter. I have found that, occasionally, I have to "jiggle" the plug a little bit to get that light to come on. I thought it had something to do with my outlets, but it may me a manufacturing defect.

Sounds like you've made proper connections. Make sure you have 110 VAC, a good light bulb, some activity for the motion sensor and darkness. If all these items are present and your fixture still does not work, then your fixture must be defective. Good Luck.

I agree with the previous response. If you know the outlet is good and its fully plugged in and you push the on button and nothing happens most likely the power supply in the unit is bad. Time to return it.....

I just tried pulling the plug, then plugging it back in. Obviously it turned off when the power was cut, but it won't come back on until the power button on the light itself is pressed.

There is not much to the unit, so if the light is on and the dial is to high, you may just have got a faulty one. I would try another outlet, in case there is a minimal power issue on that (to be sure), otherwise if its not heating up on your first try, it maybe defective.

Have you considered that it may be just broken ? It should light up right when you plug it in. Play with the sensitivity ... If still nothing them obviously it's broken.

Make sure the socket has power and that the cord is properly plugged in, try a another one if you have one, the size is pretty generic. But yes, either the unit is dead or it isn't getting power. In the off chance the bulbs have gone out you can see if it's charged by using the power meter.
