BigBallin Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 I wired everything up and can't get anything to power on. I tried to get the fan to turn on and I can't get that either. For the fan I have the White wire on the center pin (if the power plug) and the black on the outside. I'm just trying to power the fan only right now and can't even do that Link to comment
BigBallin Posted April 5, 2014 Author Share Posted April 5, 2014 i can power the fan with a battery so apparantly im doin the power plug wrong Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Pics of the setup would help in determining your issue. White is the hot (+) wire, black is the ground (-). Your fan should only be two pins, usually red and black (with red being hot) and your transformer should have only two wires coming from it, unless Dave has a different setup than I'm thinking.

BigBallin Posted April 5, 2014 Author Share Posted April 5, 2014 Got the fan working and the led lights kicked on for a split second and shut off. Now I can't get them to turn on. For the leds i Have +1 wire going to -1 wire on the driver and +2 wire going to the -2 wire on the driver. Have the plug to the storm arrow up in the first plug spot Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Without pictures I can't really see what you're talking about lol. Link to comment
BigBallin Posted April 5, 2014 Author Share Posted April 5, 2014 i dont know what you want pics of. it will just be pics of wires running from the drivers to the leds to the spots i indicated Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 Yep, that's it. Then we'd be able to figure out 'oh, connect x wire to xx instead of xxx', etc. Link to comment
BigBallin Posted April 5, 2014 Author Share Posted April 5, 2014 Think it may be a bad power supply. Going to test it again when I get back home. Is a 48v and was only testing 19v at the drivers Link to comment

netsecpro Posted April 6, 2014 Share Posted April 6, 2014 Nanobox for my jbj28. This is posted in the nanobox vender forum I asked because I just ordered a retro kit from Dave for my Bio Cube. Just wanted to make sure. Link to comment
BigBallin Posted April 6, 2014 Author Share Posted April 6, 2014 retested the power wires goin into the driver and maxed out at 19v but never stayed there and would bounce from 0 to 2 to 9 up to 19v. also test the barrel plug and it did the same exact thing Link to comment

I was in the mountains visiting my dad for his birthday. However he is in boonies and I do not have service that way so I am just getting back on the computer. Sounds like the power supply is not working correctly. I will have one out for you first thing tomorrow. Sorry for the hassle! -Dave Yep, that's it.
