Cool. I have the S7 too. I'll install the app and compare it to the readings I get on my actual light meter.They have been getting adjusted to the intensity after moving them out of my t5 tent, and I actually just flipped em a few days ago. Some plants in there are getting up to 45000 now, but a couple aren't ready for that much light yet. So I have the lights at different heights depending on how they respond. The free app I have been using is called"Lux Light Meter". I just have been using it to get a rough estimate since I don't know how accurate it is, but it seems to work pretty well with my Galaxy S7 phone.
Nice. I would like to hear about it.Cool. I have the S7 too. I'll install the app and compare it to the readings I get on my actual light meter.
Hmmm... I know someone who bought Mars and he said it produced low-quality airy bud and he wished he'd never wasted his money, you cannot produce quality meds from cheap lights, Mars is renowned for BS!!!I like the QB96's but I've also been impressed with the performance and footprint of the new Mars TS2000L so if you are looking for plug and play and cheap price no frills but good performance then the Mars is worth considering too. You can see it in action in my DIY shallow water culture grow.
I'm also trying to upgrade my 2x2. Amazon is out of stock on the 135 watt and the qb 96.I had this same issue I’m coming from a 250 hps in a 2x2 i wanted less heat and better light so I went with
1- Meanwell 185 driver
2- Qb 96 with Heatsink
coming from a 250 hps I felt the 135 watt would be under sized but 185 watts of led is closer to the 250 hps

I was looking at that fissioning at however they spell it and wondering if they were goodhttps://www.amazon.com/FISSIONING-Spectrum-Quantum-Samsung-Meanwell/dp/B08231BNSP/ref=pd_aw_t4im_d_30?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B07K7K544M&pd_rd_r=5c3cc7c7-88e2-4822-83f7-73487a049b36&pd_rd_w=E1VVY&pd_rd_wg=xoCqE&pf_rd_p=b109daad-3389-43e2-bff0-1727d5f29d4f&pf_rd_r=2PAYV3BGPQZRXP5BWQ0Z&psc=1&refRID=26MGHR3PZFZ5RZKT00FS&th=1
Consider this board maybe? I fucking love my 4
They kick assI was looking at that fissioning at however they spell it and wondering if they were good
How many watts? That driver is dinmable?They kick ass
Yes it's dimmable. It's an A version driver so the Voltage can be adjusted a bit as well to raise the wattage. I have 4 boards though, 2 fixtures of 2 boards in series on remotely mounted 240H-C2100's instead. But I imagine it can go a bit over the 120Watts it's advertised for. It doesn't even need a heatsink though cause the boards so huge. 15" X 9".How many watts? That driver is dinmable?
Wow the light spread is the most super even.Yes it's dimmable. It's an A version driver so the Voltage can be adjusted a bit as well to raise the wattage.

Yup the first board and company to take in to account the importance of spread at THE BOARD LEVEL rather than just in your build. If you see people's builds, a lot of the time they space their strips closer together at the edges because of the overlap you get from all the center ones that aren't there at the ends. So with the diodes layed out this way, it's pretty fuckin even... Check the PAR maps out on the second pic on the amazon page. At 24" I've never seen a single board come anywhere close to their #s in terms of evenness.Wow the light spread is the most super even.
I'm sold....just bought it on amazon! It's a bad mf!Yup the first board and company to take in to account the importance of spread at THE BOARD LEVEL rather than just in your build.

Oh hell ya man! Can't wait for ya to get it! It'll be cool to see some pics once it's in your hands!I'm sold....just bought it on amazon! It's a bad mf!
Man its gonna be such a huge step up from what you've got now. Can't wait til you get it in there.It is suppose to be here Wednesday right in the middle of 2nd week into flip. Goodby burple.View attachment 4509423
Good numbers all the way across. Been wondering why they didnt make it like that. Before this I was trying to get better spread with 2 lights. Thanks for telling about this. Finally happy with a lights stats!Yup the first board and company to take in to account the importance of spread at THE BOARD LEVEL rather than just in your build.
