Yes, that driver puts out 1.05A (1050mA ) and can run 4 or 5 vero 18 in series. Each led will draw ~30w because the forward voltage is 29.5v and current is 1.05A.
Yes, a great driver for running multiple V18s in series!Yes, that driver puts out 1.05A (1050mA ) and can run 4 or 5 vero 18 in series. Each led will draw ~30w because the forward voltage is 29.5v and current is 1.05A.
the 185 driver is 93% when using 110 volt input.The COBs won't mind either way, but the HLG-185H-C and HLG-120H-C drivers are 93-94% efficient so it will save you a few watts, reducing heat directly.
The driver you linked should work for the Vero18, but it has a low efficiency (84%).
yeah those are the ones i am using to build my commercial fixtures.I can verify that, I tested the HLG-185H-C1050A at 190.3 Vf to be 93.2% efficient, although there could be some error there because I was relying on a cheap Watt meter on the AC side. But HLG is definitely and example of a driver done right.
As far as performance, not much of a difference DonP. There are tiny variations between the two products but nothing significant that I can see from comparing the data sheets.What about the LPC-35-1050?

What is the difference between this and the APC model?

you have to pay customs. it usually is a bit more than the price you alkready paid for the items.. For example lets say that my order is 100 euros, i may pay 120-150 at the customs.... it is not cool at all...How is Mouser and DigiKey with shipping to Yourope?
O damn, that is ridiculous!you have to pay customs. it usually is a bit more than the price you alkready paid for the items.. For example lets say that my order is 100 euros, i may pay 120-150 at the customs.... it is not cool at all...
@stardustsailor - yep, for me too! i'm looking for 8x pieces of Veros29, instead of CXA3070AB's.@stardustsailor could you help this fellow traveler out with a European
source for COBs that don't have to pass through customs?
The language is turned to italian but you still pay the customs as the supplier is at US. THe just have the language of many countries, I think so.... Did you see that the have a European warehouse?
Try calling them and telling them about your situation. Who knows, maybe they will cut the customs, if any, if you tell them that you will be investing into their 'cause' in the future.The language is turned to italian but you still pay the customs as the supplier is at US.
