Replacement AI Blade 39" Grow Power Supply.......

AI wants $99..99 for them. I need 2, that seems super steep for a 24 Volt 80 DC power Block.

Are there generic replacements ? If so would anyone care to share the source?

Thanks

Sure lots of replacements.. and if your lights are close together you can probably get one 2x size to run both.
I assume these are just AC/DC constant voltage switching power supplies..Your "80" is watts?


PART #: GST90A24-P1M
Sale Price: $32.73
.
2.1mm male plug (2.5mm for 90W)
With luck thats the right size.. Anyways adapters ect are cheap and easy to find.
Either way you'd need one for each light.

Going larger wattage wise is no big deal. Well unless one goes crazy like 450w ps for a 60w unit. You lose all sorts of efficiency AFAICT.


You can keep the brick style
with its generally shorter lifespan due to enclosed heat or go more enclosed cage style. This would run both lights.
Of course you need to add plugs or do surgery.. :)

Volts need to match
Watts/amps need to be equal or higher
Barrel plug size needs to match

They won’t pull more watts/amps than they need. The power supply just needs to be capable of providing it at the correct amount of volts
