for the lpc-60-1750 and the qb120, is a standard lamp cord sufficient enough to wago or is there a better option for the AC side of things?
Just waiting for the connector, board, and driver to set it up

I'm guessing that a couple of hours after the sale starts all the stock will be gone. Are you expecting to have a higher stock level that won't sell out in a few hours, in the next few weeks?
That's not a criticism btw....it just shows that demand is higher than supply which can be a bit frustrating for some of us, but good for you guys

Question y'all!
In the midst of the restock, I am still trying to figure out where to get the meanwell drivers. Are you guys getting them from digikey? Or does @robincnn and HLG provide them in house?? I am trying to build 2 QB304s in a 4x2 tent to replace my 135w kit for flowering. I know which components to get for the 2 304s, but am stuck on where to get the hlg-320h-c1400b? Any help would be great! Thanks!!

After having problems with some of these middlemen, I now use Mouser exclusively. You pay a little bit more, but I've never had a problem. With Arrow and Element 14 I've had multiple problems with them lying about their stock levels. I've even emailed before ordering and gotten: sure sure we have best stock.......... Placed order, Boom! email saying your order will ship in 4-6 weeks..... Then 7-14 days to get a refund!!! That happened twice with Arrow and once with Element 14. F that! never again! Considering how much money these middlemen make, there is no excuse for not having realtime inventory.
And at least Digikey will give you an accurate stock level via email.

Have you checked Sager? That's where I got mine. Seem to be a little cheaper than the competition, and the shipping was both reasonably priced and quick to hit my doorstep.

Sager was also very quick to me as well.

5 days 12/12 under 3 - 550s.
Vegged 4 weeks.
Maybe I should have vegged a little bit less. The ladies stretched something serious.

yes popular stuff sells out quick. plenty of 304 3000k, way more slate 2's than the number of boards.I'm guessing that a couple of hours after the sale starts all the stock will be gone. Are you expecting to have a higher stock level that won't sell out in a few hours, in the next few weeks?

growerslights is helping stock some QB Kits, there is another distributor that will be helping sell Boards only in sep. Next batch of boards in 2-3 weeks.
List of drivers with hyperlinks for findchips.com. Online components has cheep flat rate shipping. arrow drivers pricey but ship over night,

Sager has good prices for drivers too.

Yee! Thanks for ALL your help, team. Sager is completely out of stock as of right now (in case anyone was looking into buying from Sager at this time). I'll be going with Mouser once I order the components today. Too exciting.

I'm sure Mouser will be a good choice. I will say that when I look at the HLG-320H-C1400B on Sager's website, it says they have two in stock. Maybe that's not updated though?
