    Help me understand wattage vs lumens

    Thanks for the explanation, it was along the lines i was thinking but... Forgive my ignorance but i always thought lumens don't stack ie. If i had a 100w bulb with 1000 lumens in a room and i added another 100w (1000 lumen) bulb into the same room. I still have 1000 lumens as the light doesn't...

    Help me understand wattage vs lumens

    That's what i am here for, advice. Not sure on what the strip is rated for wattage tbh I does seem more sensible to run 4 strips on 1 driver than 8 lol.

    Hi. I have 8 strips of Samsung F-SERIES GEN3 4000k. I am currently running 4 strips on a HLG-150H-54B ( 150w, CC driver @ 2.8amps) in my veg tent 80x80cm (2.6ft x 2.6ft, 7ft2) Each are running at 0.7amps. I have a few of these drivers, i got them cheap. Had a quick look on the Samsung engine...

    Looking for LED strips for a DIY build

    Thanks for the answers So either the Samsungs or the QB96 seem to be the way to go then. I am in the UK so not sure if HLG deliver to here and they are a bit out of my budget tbh I already have a Veg light using Samsung F3 strips with a HLG-150H-54B The ledgardener builds are over 3 years...

    Looking for LED strips for a DIY build

    Hi guys. What are the go to led strips these days? Are the Samsung F3's still the best or i have seen a few EB Gen 3 builds on here lately. Or is there anything newer? Wanting to flower a 4x4 (1.2m x 1.2m) tent I have 4 x HLG-150H-54B (voltage output 27-54V, current output max 2.8A) drivers. I...

    distance between F-Strips

    Thx @Rocket Soul i was leaning towards the 4 strips, as i thought the space between 3 strips would be too wide, so option 2 it is. I made a typo, the driver supplies 2.8amps Not too bothered about the wasted power.

    MeanWell LED Drivers: 3 in 1 Dimming Function.

    Quick question guys. I want to dim 1 driver, so i have a 100k pot. Its only 90% efficient so i need to add a 10k resistor, to get 100% power. Does the resistor go on the + or - leg? not worried about dimming down, it will never run less than 10%

    Have i finally worked out drivers?

    Thx @7CardBud. Just trying to do a budget veg build to get used to led's I may be able to source a couple of the 54A cheap.
