G'damn , that even looks bright on my computer screen... SheeshThe build was very easy and accessible to anyone, don't be scared to give it a try. If i can do it, everybody can :

Ok thats good, have you done just 2 out of 4? I could just drill and tap them but I'm feeling lazy lolI have had a few where I was unable to get all four holes to line up for mounting. It does not seem to have caused any major problems as of yet. It is also one of the reasons I plan to try my next build just using the kaptan tape for mounting, it should take less and effort to mount with the kaptan tape, while at the same time it should increase the re-usability of the heat sinks.
Yep, for the first step of the build but at the end i will plug 4 Vero29 in total to this driver. These Artic 11 are for a future evolution of the panel, i want to add some CXA 3000K @ 700mA, only two at the beginning and later up to 4 of them.Awesome light
I see artic 11 in your equipment but in the light fixture I just see one large heatsink.
Are you powering 2 veros with HLG-185H-C1050B
I was not sure at the beginnning but @1050mA, the Vero's run only @ 38.2W, so it stays quite cold. The heatsink stays cool even after a few hours up. The 140mm fan is doing a great job for it.Is okay to use only 2 of the 4 mounting holes on a Vero 29? All 4 will be hard to line up with the fins of the heatsink.
Yes, you can. No special holders required.Hey all,
I have a little doubt, is it possible to mount multiple Vero29 in series ? Do i need some special holders to do that ? My COBs (only two) are mounted in parallel mode, it's probably a bad idea but i didn't knew that yesterday.
Can someone please post a picture of a build in series ?
Thank you in advance.
What's your driver? I don't think that you'll be able to run your LEDs in both modes on one driver.Thank you all for your answers. I just bought a energy meter (amp and Watt) to check the real wattage of my test panel. I will try it in parallel mode and then in series mode.
If it's not a problem to go with the parallel mode, i prefer leave it that way, it's more easy to change the layout and setup.
Cheers
Sorry, i'm not sure i fully understand your question, english isn't my mother language. My driver is a Mean Well HLG-185H-C1050B.What's your driver? I don't think that you'll be able to run your LEDs in both modes on one driver.
Hmm I'm also surprised your light is working now if it is truly in parallel. WIth that driver, you should only be able to do series since it has a constant current ouput. If you were to go parallel then a constant voltage driver with higher amperage would be needed. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong but that's how I understand it.Hi alesh,

If i try the "series" mode, i will plug everything in series. If i choose "parallel" mode (most likely not), i will plug everything in parallel. (hope that will answer your question)
That's how it's look like:Hmm I'm also surprised your light is working now if it is truly in parallel. WIth that driver, you should only be able to do series since it has a constant current ouput.

Power supply is not matching the load.Hi bizfactory,
That's how it's look like:
There are two pico molex cables connected to the output cables of the driver.
