    Matching Drivers and COBs

    You should also be able to order some directly from Kingbrite in the near future. The price from them is supposed to be about $75 according to the email I got. ~900ppfd over six square feet by my estimations using his numbers.

    DiY LEDs - How to Power Them

    It's a rubber stopper, you can just pinch and pull it out. Took me a minute to figure out as well :P

    1kW on Light Mover vs 2 Stationary 600W

    Well, that's not to say a good light mover couldn't be made. However most of the movers I've seen aren't the highest quality. Since you're in a tent, there isn't going to be a good way to secure the rails anyhow IMO. Either way, a single 1kw bulb is going to emit less photons than a pair of...

    ***The 7th Official Party Cup Grow Competition Thread***

    Damn it's looking tasty in here. Absolutely scrumptious. I wish I had paid more attention to my cups this round. I love the colors. Hoping I can limp them along long enough to get some viable beans :P

    My wife.....

    Technically yes, realistically no.. They don't have much in the way of photon output. Tell your wife it's an expensive way to add light to the grow room. Show her cobs :P A expensive, but practical way to use led lights.

    DIY led grow

    To my eye the 4k/660 nugs look a bit denser than the outdoor nugs. But that may just be a trick of the camera. Looks tasty :weed:

    Cost-Breakdown of COB-Based Fixtures

    Buying a light based on price per photon(watt/parwatt/ect) is like looking at 5 different makes of cars and buying one based on price per horse power alone. Sure you could do that, but do you really want a go-cart with a 7-liter V8, open cab, and steel bucket seats? Some do, but that is not...

    @vibrantgreengenes , @ZoBudd - No activity in over a week, DQ'ed IMO. I'll leave that to the host. @The Dawg - You still with us broskie? Hopefully you didn't forget about your cup :P With that, I'm out. They're super tiny because I have been starving them. Plus the male popped open and made a...

    A question for DIY LED!!! please!

    It'll most likely grow a plant. Same as any other cheap Chinese light. There are lots of pictures of people using cheap blurple panels on other forums, they just got shunned here. There is no 'right' spectrum, different balances produce slightly different photomorphogenic response. Right now...
