    just wondering if there was anything on the market for controlling T5's.
    Kind of like a dawn/dusk thing. My Nove extreme pro 48 in 6X48 is coming in tomorrow. It has 2 power cords one for 10k and one for actinics. I realize that setting each on its own timer having the actinics coming on first and going off last will kind of work like dusk/dawn. I was kinda looking for something a little more in depth like ramping up input voltage slowly to max power then letting it come back down.

    oh yeah most important part, cant be to much $$$$ (i know "high-tech" and cheap never go together)

    As far as I know there is no "dimmer" that will work with them.
