    The Chinese Quantum Board Knock Off Builds

    Lol that’s what I’m saying. I’m waiting to hear back from them. Like maddmango quoted, it seems like it’s for a single fotop and a 320w driver. We’ll see what meijiu says. Maybe the Corona Virus is really hurting business.

    Hot Dogs! Maybe it’s just me but I’ve never seen them this cheap with a Meanwell driver. Could be just the board but usually they state that in the ad...

    Astral grow is a bunch of good dudes. Any Canadians looking to get Bava products should definitely support them.

    Thanks man, they’re seeming pretty happy at 18” currently. Outer boards are running at 90w per board and the centre are at 80w per board.

    Depends on what the light is being used for? Veg, Flower, Veg/Flower? Every spectrum has its prime, just depends on whether or not the grower utilizes them at the right times.

    Eric Clapton = Rockstar x Cookies n Cream

    As late as this is I figured I would start a journal for my current grow, especially after building a QB light fixture with the help of some of the fellow RIU members. @Rocket Soul the genetics are as stated in the title. A buddy’s Rockstar mother hooked up with another buddy’s male cookies n...

    There’s an HLG DIY sponsored thread, this ones just for the half pricers. As much as people can talk down on Chinese products, just remember the iPhone is built in Shenzhen as well as our LED boards. Don’t doubt the country, doubt the company.

    The Chinese Quantum Board Knock Off Builds

    Thanks Rocket, you and the others on RIU definitely helped me sort some shit out. At first it’s for sure a little intimidating but once you get a game plan together and start building the light, fear takes a back seat and excitement grabs the wheel. Finishing the build and putting it up comes...

    Honestly, can you hook up a car battery? If so then strips, boards, cobs are no different. Yes there a couple of factors that need to be sorted out as in drivers, currents, voltages ,wiring diagrams and shit but that’s what RIU is for! After you know what you need, it’s easy peasy man. Also...

    The Chinese Quantum Board Knock Off Builds

    Does anyone know of any better alternatives to the rope pulleys that everyone uses? I have 4 1/8” supporting my fixture but I would like to downsize to two of the but still retain the easy adjustability. I’ve seen 1/4” versions of rope pulleys but have also heard that they’ve been know to fail...

    Keep me in mind lol. I just built a 6 board set up for my 4x4 but I’m already planning on adding 3 more boards for even better spread.

    The Chinese Quantum Board Knock Off Builds

    Yeah I’m seeing the same trend as well, next run I’m going to be adding 3 more boards for a total of 9. Same 240w driver but powering 3 boards instead of 2. I’d keep the drivers at about 200w with a .2w diode usage. Leaves me enough space to add other spectrums in as well. The strips are nice...
