    DIY with Quantum Boards

    See if you can figure out hour many hours your originals have been illuminating. I think they last for eons without degrading too much.

    The bossy person assumes that "you are wound up in the whole led craze" because you are using 600w MH/HPS in your grow journal? PMSL

    4x4 LED Grow, First Grow

    The 135 kit will easily run at near 160 watts if you crank up the "IoADJ" with a small phillips screwdriver. Leave the "VoADJ" alone, it will be set at 54v. I have 2 135`s in a 2x4, currently in veg at 135w each, but will crank them up when the lumps get sticky.

    4x4 LED Grow, First Grow

    Good on ya for getting a decent light. You may as well keep that huckery thing there until you get another decent light. For a 4x4, "four" QB288 boards would be optimal wattage. Looks like you have 1 board, a 135 kit

    Did HLG Just Kill Timber’s Quantum Board Business?

    Does Or Gro choose to not understand what this actually means? "I wanted to address the recent changes to the product lineup at Timber Grow Lights. We recently updated our product offering exclusively to COB based lighting. This decision is based on both commercial as well as hobbyist...

    DIY with Quantum Boards

    My 2 135`s drawing 135w each from the wall are currently 23C higher than tent temp after 7 hours on. Measured near center between the fins using cheap ir thermometer. No direct air flow over lights. I do have some 120mm PC case ball bearing USB fans if summer ever arrives. Snowing nearby yesterday.

    What makes you think the HLG550 is lower quality. Is it the the precision machined slab of aluminium for optimal heat transfer.

    If you become even more disgusted and remove the QB288`s, attack them with a hammer etc, could you please film it & upload to youtube.

    Did HLG Just Kill Timber’s Quantum Board Business?

    "highly valuable" is not a term I would use either. Someone on previous page suggested that I do not have a clue. They will be oblivious to the many years I toiled in an engineering workshop a few decades ago. HLG550 and 300 = robust quality construction, not cheap to manufacture 24SAM & 48SAM...

    I messed up haha, no more ChilLed:/. Bummed

    "The spectrum of ChilLed seemed amazing.." Yes it is. Whatever you are inhaling is obviously way too strong for you if you walk away and buy something ordinary. Best you send it all to me and I will dispose of it safely. My tin has been empty for months and will be empty until xmas!!!
