Faven Chroma Power Cord for Under Canopy Lights

Need reliable power and communication for your Chroma lighting system? The Faven Chroma Power Cord delivers both electrical power and digital protocol communication to Chroma fixtures, enabling full spectrum control and dimming capabilities. Available in three voltage options—120V, 240V, and 277V—this cord is specifically engineered for Chroma fixtures and supports daisy-chaining multiple lights from a single power source to simplify installation and reduce electrical infrastructure requirements.

Each grow bench requires at least one power cord, with the capacity to daisy-chain additional fixtures using extension cables depending on your voltage selection. At 120V, you can connect up to 10 Chroma lights per cord; at 240V, up to 17 lights; and at 277V, up to 20 lights. If your bench configuration exceeds these maximum daisy-chain counts, you'll need multiple power cords to properly power and control all fixtures while maintaining system reliability and performance.

This power cord is compatible exclusively with the Faven Lighting Chroma series and cannot be used with base model lighting. The integrated digital protocol communication ensures your controller—whether CX2, GrowFlux, or RS485 adapter—can send spectrum adjustments, dimming commands, and far-red scheduling to all connected fixtures. Proper cord selection based on your facility's voltage and fixture count is essential for optimal system performance.

FAQs

How many power cords do I need for my setup? +

Each grow bench requires at least one power cord. If your bench has 10 or fewer lights (120V), 17 or fewer (240V), or 20 or fewer (277V), one power cord is sufficient when using extension cables to daisy-chain fixtures. If you exceed these maximums, you'll need multiple power cords—for example, a bench with 25 lights at 240V would require two power cords.

What's the difference between a power cord and an extension cable? +

The power cord connects directly to your electrical outlet and provides both power and communication to the first fixture. Extension cables (jumper cables) connect subsequent fixtures in the daisy-chain, allowing you to link multiple lights to a single power cord without running separate electrical lines to each fixture.

Which voltage should I choose? +

Select the voltage that matches your facility's electrical system: 120V for standard residential or small commercial setups, 240V for most commercial grows using modern LED grow lights, or 277V for large commercial facilities with high-voltage infrastructure. Higher voltages allow more fixtures per cord—277V supports up to 20 lights compared to 10 lights at 120V.

Can I use this cord with non-Chroma Faven fixtures? +

No, this power cord is designed exclusively for Faven Chroma fixtures, like those found in the Chroma 4' x 4' Starter Pack, and is not compatible with base model lighting. The integrated digital protocol communication is specific to Chroma's adjustable spectrum and control capabilities, which base models do not support.

What happens if I exceed the maximum daisy-chain count? +

Exceeding the maximum daisy-chain count can result in insufficient power delivery, unreliable communication between controller and fixtures, potential circuit overload, and degraded performance. Always stay within the specified limits: 10 lights at 120V, 17 at 240V, or 20 at 277V. For larger installations, use multiple power cords distributed across your fixture layout.

Do I need a separate controller connection? +

Yes, the power cord handles electrical power and allows digital communication, but your fixtures still need to connect to a controller (CX2, GrowFlux, or RS485 adapter) for spectrum adjustment, dimming, and scheduling. The power cord enables this communication pathway while simultaneously delivering electricity to the fixtures.

Can I mix different voltage cords in the same facility? +

You can use different voltage cords in separate zones if your facility has multiple electrical systems, but never mix voltages within the same daisy-chain or connect different voltage cords to the same fixtures. Each daisy-chain must use a consistent voltage throughout, and fixtures must be powered exclusively by the voltage they're rated for.

How do I calculate how many cords I need for a large installation? +

Divide your total fixture count by the maximum daisy-chain number for your voltage, rounding up. For a detailed guide on mapping out larger spaces, you can read our article on how many LED grow lights you need. For example, 50 fixtures at 240V: 50 ÷ 17 = 2.94, so you'd need 3 power cords. It's often best to distribute fixtures evenly—in this case, run three chains of approximately 17, 17, and 16 fixtures to balance the electrical load.
