what would happen?

[insert username]

if I put only 2 cxb3590 36v onto a LCN200W140T , would they work, or would they blow up, or would I be okay and have them running super hard? at like 2800 mA?

You'd need at least 3 COBs on it, because minimum output voltage is 87v, two COBs would only be 72v.

What if he used the 72v 3590's?

Then 2 would work but it still wouldn't be 2800ma. That's a constant current driver, putting off 1400ma throughout the voltage range.
The Bridgelux V22 would probably be a better choice if you plan on pushing hard.

Yeah that would work.

oh lol thanks,

do ya know if the cxb3590 cob holder/ideal thingo, how do you attach a wire to that? can u like find an attachment to plug into the cob holder or u have to like solder them wires on there??

You just stick the wires into the clips. You'll need solid wire or solder melted on multistrand wire to make it hard enough to stick in there.

That's what she said.

That's what she said.

Wiring a COB is very much like sex, though considerably less enjoyable.

to run that driver the most efficient you would want 4 3590's.....each cob would be running at about 50.4 watts for a total of 201 watts at the wall give or take a watt and or volt....
