lights by lights you mean?
diodes
or
fans
or
drivers
or
fixture its all placed in
or or what? id replace it but whats so bad about it since diodes are blown. they sell these ones i found https://www.ebay.com/itm/1W-3W-High-Power-LED-component-Bridgelux-chip-PCB-for-Grow-Aquarium-Light-SMD-UV-/141679345010 but, its just one of these non-soldered to the board type sthta wasnt cooked in an expensive oven. that costs thousands sooo that means buy my overpriced light cause i own this soldering oven.
i mean ive seen ihs delidded and replaced grease on before. if i replced the grease on my diodes would they work? whats crap about them is what im saying your saying that but i dont know what you mean.

No. What were saying is your lights garbage, diodes are blown. Time for an upgrade.
can you show me the difference beteween smd and slug, this isnt telling me anything about my light. not even waht it is besides you calling 2 words without explaining what they mean and then calling mine junk while others great
so get another whole entire light beceacuse mine is blowing leds, drivers blinking but i dont know why or if its even abnormal or not.
yea im gonna git anuther one. so i can get the same reply next time.
anyone got any ideas?

Luxeon1 is a slug diode which is what you've got.
SMDs are like the LM301Bs used on most boards today. Like in this pic.

Chalk up your loss and invest the money to fix this junk light for something better like a board I posted in the last pic.

oh yea ive seen that before. never knew much about them. can they be hung as far away? what are those per watt in diode? what would you suggest to replace the light that i was using, 2.5x2ft flower plant space, anything that uses that, with good and not as good diodes, to replace it with? what spectrum do you use for flowering or vegging? is there a good combo, cause this light had a few different spectrums put in it. and idont know, what to say, not consistent. just to know what options i might, got.

ive looked around enough before that. i'd say the answer to that question is, it's such an odd size space that, its build your own. ahh

You only need 150-200watts man. Any 2 board set up.
Or just go with a spider farmer sf2000 or Mars tsw2000.

I don't know this seller, but it's a great price.
