been wondering the same thing. they show a bunch of new models as being available (but not in stock yet) so wondering if they are just purging inventory or something. glad i stocked up when I did although I hope there isn't some issue with them.
The q series 3000k is cheaper at arrow right now. 3000k 2' onlyANYONE see any deals lately ?
Seems the "steals" are gone now....i said this a while back but nobody believed me. Anyone seen any kind of good deal on strips in the last few months ?
Arrow is all full price everytime i look now....
So where is the modern strips at a decent price ? 193lm/w for under a buck cant be beat. pricewise*
got a link for the q series ?
Deals are always there, prices change sometimes multiple times a day. you must just have bad luck w timing. I've gotten the sale price on L04/L09 and V strips multiple times now over last 6 mons, most recently at end of January. Found some 30W Samsung Drivers for those V strips for $2 each. Also I got 10 ERP 40W drivers for $3 each the week before.ANYONE see any deals lately ?

And I still look a few times a week for delta drivers, think it’s a thing of the past at arrow.
no clue where i got that number from ....i just came up with 170....maybe i was talking about the h series. i know they are way better efficiancy.
yeah dunno what's up with those either. those were the best deal
EB gen 3 4ft are hard to beat for $/watt and efficiency. They are 10.60 Canadian on Digi-Key 186lm/w
yea i guess you are right....hard to beat that price for those diodes but at the beginning of the thread we were paying less then 2 bucks a strip for the lm561c's. Im getting over 200lm/w with those.
Probably not needed but will help your setup to last longer.
you see any cheap lo4/09 or v's , please let me know ....im in need of a bunch of strips.
I could never understand how people were getting 200lm/w with the shitty influx strips. I used the Samsung enginee calculator and could not get anything over 170lm/w and it was taking a looooot of strips and kind of made the wiring not worth it
No i was referring to the newer models at that price. H series is one im using. Influx is just the cheap go to for veg lights. (170lm/w is DAMN good for the price.)I could never understand how people were getting 200lm/w with the shitty influx strips. I used the Samsung enginee calculator and could not get anything over 170lm/w and it was taking a looooot of strips and kind of made the wiring not worth it

holy crap! thats expensive. the lm561c will hang with or match the that bridgelux in efficiency for 1/10 of the price literally.I could never understand how people were getting 200lm/w with the shitty influx strips.

I am not sure how. Anytime I've configured the Samsung's to be as efficient you need to buy enough strips and it cancels out the price diff.
ARROW two or 3 months ago! Thats what im saying. Look at the thread. the deals are trully too good to be true. yes for 28 bucks you would of snatched up enough to match or beat your efficiency.
