@Stephenj37826 @robincnn with my 4x4 tent would it be better to use two slate 3's with 2 boards each?
Or use two slate 2's with 2 boards each?

I thought the 3' sinks would allow me to get the boards closer to the walls and more even coverage.
Am I right or does it not really matter all that much?
You are right and this is why for my 2x4 closet I went with the 260w kit but on a slate 3

Ok thanks man, so that crappy lil drawing I uploaded looks correct then? Just wanted to make sure before I went and wire it up tommorow. Thanks!

Check this out.
(Two boards on the bottom are connected together in series) and (the two boards on top are connected in series = + to -)
And call each set a chain ... now both chains are connected to the DC source in parallel ( each chain's + is connected to the DC + and each chains - is connected to the DC neg) so the chains are in parallel but the boards within each chain are in series.
I hope this clarifies it :-)

Quick question guys
Will this wiring picture from hlgs website work for 4x304 boards running off an hlg 4802100b so I have 2 strings of 1050ma , wire it the exact same way ? Also will each individual board be receiving 1050ma each?

No, that is 2, series strings, in parallel making each string about 220V and 2100ma. I believe you could wire 2 Parallel circuits in series.
