And here is what I did with my Mars 2 700 bullsh#t W.
And it's a Mars bar now running 4 X CXB 3070 AD 3000K on the Mars drivers @750ma, utilized the heatsinks and plate, wiring, plug, brass hanger points.
This light runs so cool it's incredible a mere 2c more than room temp at the back of the cob.
Used a couple of the drivers on my Gemini CXB3590 72v 3500k CD bin on cutters new passive pin heatsinks.
This one runs not so cool, they ran at 50c heatsink temp in a room temp of 24.5c, however given this is the same as running 36v version @1500ma I'm not unhappy.
I'm thinking of putting a couple of 120mm fans over the Gemini and that will bring the temp of the heatsink back to what I'd like to achieve.
And one of the failed Mars 2 400 lights converts with CXB3070 BB 3500K 125w from wall
is in the attached file.
Realstyles gave growmau inspiration and I in turn had inspiration.
That is a 1600 Mars that's going to be 2 more Mars bars and a few more Gemini lights.
So Mars lights are good for conversions of all sorts as for growing, they will do the job if you throw enough of them at the task at hand. I to fell for the hype they sold but we learn and move on.
