I have a question about a build just conformation on compatibility. I want to get 6 LT-FB24B STRIPS DRIVEN BY HGL-600-48A which can run 600w with 12.5 amp each strip ran at 2.0833 amp. Will this work
Samsung strip build question
- Thread starter Dachem2010
- Start date
Should work fine might need some heatsink or sheet metal for the heat.
Edit: those are the 4' strips right?

Ya it's the 4 foot strips I want to run them softer cut im using passive cooling just aluminum u channel with L channel aluminum around the edges has anyone ran these at 3+amp I only veg indoors and put them outside Spring this year they went out at about a foot 8 mains but next year I want them to min 2 feet with 12 mains I would rather grow fewer but monsters I want about the same lumens as outdoors to help prevent light burn as I don't have the option to put them out for few hours n back in

What are THE BEST strips on the market? And who is coming in second?

Depends on what ur looking for the LM301B has the highest efficiency but idk if they are In Strips yet but the LM561C are. samsung they have the density of diodes next are bridgelux and bridgelux are pretty comparable to efficiency to lm561c some people get slightly higher efficiency with the bridge Lux they think that they are super under-rated so they are ran really soft at the recommended amperage there is also solstrip x3's I just wish they were longer

I run 4 of the FB24B's as boosters during flower. They are mounted on 2"x.125" aluminum strip(45"). The strips are designed to operate @ 100w at the test current-they will run at 50+ degC so they will be hot but they are designed to run that way. My Vero arrays use passive cooling so I already have good airflow for cooling so the strips are warm but not burning hot. The driver you listed will be perfect for 6 of the F strips.

Heat dissipation results from U-channel vs 1" Heatsinks.
U-channel
Heat dissipation from 1" heatsink.

Yes, 9 F562B strips powered by HLG 240C 24B. Cost difference is about $20 more for the heatsinks than the U-channel.

I read nichia was the best somewhere, but idk what the price vs sammy looks like. Cree has new led releases as well.
