Jupiter 2 Motor Unit:
The motor unit for all kits is identical and comes fitted with a variable delay timer adjustable from 0.5 - 60 seconds. The motor traction speed has been set at the optimal level for excellent growth which is approximately 140 seconds per metre.
Time Delay Settings
The time delay option allows the light mover to pause at each end of the track for a desired length of time. This allows the plants at the ends of the garden time to absorb an even amount of light as the centre part of the garden, resulting in an even growth profile. Without the time pause at each end you may find that the centre growth becomes taller than the ends.
Variable time delay from .5 to 60 seconds is achieved by way of an adjustment screw on the front of the motor unit. KIT 3 & KIT 4 uses one motor unit connected to a set of Jockey wheels by a push rod.
