The total draw is the same 5400W. 5x860W allstart on magnetic- more like 1080W each, between my single phase 240V and the magnetic boat anchors driving them.

Each of my COB modules pulls 225W; 54W to each of 4 COBs and the last 8 or 9 watts for the driver. 824PPfD over a 2'x3' space... times 24 modules. That's good for 56% "plus" efficiency, which rips the doors clean off anything with a light bulb in it by half again or

6x24=144sq ft, can't wait to see what happens next!


We can do this for $400 today. It's only a matter of time.

400.00 is a little high to crush the T-5 market. I mean T-5's are probably the most bought veg light world wide. And their fucking bulbs always go out its a fucking mess.

I think plenty of people will pay $400 for a light that works better than any other, ever- and NEVER needs replacing.

I mean, how do I explain the fact that my plants EXPLODED when they got COB LED after having grown up under T5?

I do hear that, but when I have nice node distance on the main stem and getting the screen filled in, stretch of the node distance is not what I want, I just want the plant to grow more so I have more to fill in the screen.
Now the ticket is one can get to many buds sites on a plant, hence many little buds to trim and deal with, or one can prune and choose what bud sites to grow and how many, the benefit is the buds on the plant will develop and grow bigger and better.

I just hope the best for all who do like to grow. It is a very rewarding hobby for me, plus I need to keep my med jars full.

After a week the growth is lush and they're filling in. Most have grown a leaf set every day.

I'm not seeing much sign of early budset like I was warned about, but they're healthy and there's no doubt they love the light!

Wow that price makeses person think twice about wholesaling there own from China.

Johnson grow lights I believe, wanted 1700 for 8 cobs and they leave no cob in the middle.

What's your suppliers name? If the line is already backed up months by you then don't worry about it.

It'd just be nice to check a couple out before we decide whether or not to go the alibaba DIY root.

That's one model, it doesn't need a COB in the middle. His Maximizer is the one I'd suggest to replace a thouie. It runs 8 CXB3590 at 75W each, total 600W.

Today i did the math with another long time patron of Pott's- FORTY TWO years at the same location. :clap:

So it's official; if according to Douglas Adams the answer to Life, the Universe and Everything is 42, we know know the question. :hump:
