Would using a 2x2 frame in a 3x3 space be detrimental to light spread? I think half-inch spacing will probably work fine and would allow me to upgrade to 15 strips on the same frame in the future if necessary. ~176 W -> ~300W 2x2 to 3x3

Posted this in the correct subthread which I hadn't seen before. Link to other post: https://rollitup.org/t/led-strip-light-spacing.1008660/#post-15373303

Also, while I'm asking, I am using 1/8 inch aluminum L channel, since my pieces are 2ft in length, one of my sides will come out to 24 1/4 inches. Is it really worth cutting to 23.75 inches to get a perfectly square frame?

I'd say max 3x3 min 2x2

I am not completely sure, I am going to be using a 2ftx2ft frame for the lighting. With a .5 inch spacing, I could fit 15 strips. Only using 9 for now, but I could place them where I could upgrade to 15 in the future.

I am creating a bridgelux eb gen 2 strip build, and I was wondering what the optimal spacing in between the strips should be. I would have 2ft strips and run them at 1 AMP each. Could I put them side by side or would that make the light too intense?

Well, found the problem with that driver, voltage input is 277 - 480v, other than that, it seems solid.... Found another one of their products https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/thomas-research-products/LED75W-025-C3000-D/LED75W-025-C3000-D-ND/4332671 This seems like it would work fine...

Looking at this thread https://www.rollitup.org/t/bridgelux-eb-gen-2-thermals.957453/ it seems as if it might be better for me to use 16 strips and run them at 700 ma each. Doing this would require no heatsinking and I would run at higher efficiency. I have heard some people say you can do...

I created this led light strip build, and I was wondering if heatsinking would be sufficient. Also, I found this very cheap driver on Digikey and am wondering why it isn't suggested more often? Build Specs: 8x BXEB-L0560Z-35E2000-C-B3...
