Im sure you know this but what is interesting to me is that you can't force more voltage through LEDs than the current will support. So I actually have my driver's set to max voltage (37.8V) and max current (supposed to be 16.7A).i think you mean what most around here would call a "constant voltage" driver (even though in reality it is CV/CC)
yes they always beat the datasheet you gotta look at the test report to see the true upper range. and again it depends on your cob voltage. is that 630W input or output?test report says that HLG600 can put out 18.78A at up to 39.6V which is over 730W. if youre running at the typ. 36V the 630W sounds like max.
youd have to run 36ishV cobs with slightly higher voltage like 3070s to max out a 36V constant voltage driver
CLU046-1212s are min 31.8V, type 34.6V, max 37.5V.
Running 30 of them in parallel the driver outputs 33.5V (despite being set at max). 18.8A (0.62A per COB). 630W total. At the wall I'm getting 659W.
