Boards that can use 240-1750

Hey guys, I find myself wanting to re use the 2 HLG-240H-C1750B meanwell drivers I've got on my current build, for sosomething new...I recently built a new fixture and am now finding myself daydreaming of doing it again.
I'd like to use boards, strips I could handle too.

But these drivers I'm finding are hard to pair with a setup that would be maxing them out.

Do any of you have any recommendations on strips or boards that would get me the Max out of with a 1.750ma current?

Sorry, I did that backwards. We all blaze here. But yeah, you can get real creative that way. I have a spare HLG-120h-c1400 and am in the same boat with a strip build.

You mean by splitting the current In Half to 875MA? That would me it even harder to find anything with enough luminous flux to compare to the 8 cxb3590's pushing 11K ec totaling near 90K.

You could get 6 l09 h influx on each driver that way, they’d be super efficient, flux for each is gonna be around 8000+ in 3500k (8000x6x2=96000).

Even with the $32 ones that's $400 just on strips. There's gotta be some other way..
Even buying 4 Atreums with sinks at $70/4=280+hlg-600h-54a=4
$420. If I was gonna spend that much, i would go that route.
But there has to be some strip or board out there I can make work with these damned 240-1750's!!!

Meijiu 312 boards are 36V so matches fine with meanwells cc range. Actually they will prob run even lower at 1750, maybe 34V.

I'd really like something with a high voltage(50-70) but most importantly, something that maxes out around the 1750ma range if possible. That would be ideal.

there really isnt anything like that on alibubbers. it would mean a board running around 70V, i think that voltage is only 72V crees, and vero 29 C.

the way i figure the china boards in order to be competetive with real QBs: running them at nominal (60w/board for these) is a good way to make up for not being lm301b top bin diodes. 2x china boards at 60w each is similar in efficiency to a 120w qb, but cheaper and you can hang them lower and spread the light better.

Thing is. Typical Alibaba you have to buy 10 to get a decent price
Yeah but 10 of em over a 4x4 at around 600w total is wayy cheaper than QBs and just as efficient with a better light spread and the ability to run closer to the canopy for height restricted folks.
10 isn't that big an order when you think about it tbf
