    0.1ma 1.758625w 71.92265% :o thank you so much for the info! seems It would make sense to dim down to ~0.5ma (or till I hit ~900ppfd) @~66%

    "over 1000 either way"? that's even more than I thought! : ) thank you very much for you response sir : ) than it settled. I will also bee using Storm-X controller to create sunset, sunrises etc. maybe I will be able to achieve more efficiency by dimming it down even more if "383w per meter...

    Hello guys! I have ordered everything. The chips are on their way and the 2 meter long heatsinks are in the process of making in factory. just need decide on which of these 2 to go with : ) My main goal is to increase gr per watt. If 2gr per watt is possible with this light, would you...

    thank you for your input, I have done the math in the meantime and it seems that 500w per sq meter will give me 1300ppfd (just as the brightest day at 12:00) because I will use the B version driver I will be able to dim down all the way to 350ma and adjust for the sweet spot and maybe go full...

    hey Buddy, I don't know why, but I didn't get the notification on your comment. there was the first deleaf on day 17 flower and the second deleaf on day 28. didn't touch the plants besides that, but I think the deleaf of day 28 was overkill. overall I'm disappointed in this grow. I have to many...

    I gotta make a confession.

    who cares even if you did. It's just wiring a cob to a driver -_-

    I think I'll end up using regular plate heatsinks because they look cool and not require any other parts to attach. and they are not so expensive after all... I think it will look somethink like that 100 chips 10 bars 10 hlg240b @700 each bar 2 meters long and 20cm wide

    It seems white because I use what's called "custom white balance" for my canon DSLR. [if I would point my camera with this settings at something white it would appear green (just as method seven glasses)] Just some shitty panels from china. I have already posted the wavelenghts but I guess I...

    who said you have to buy these heatsinks from alibaba? if your country has those plate heatsinks than you can also find these small round heatsinks I just wouldnt believe it's enough for passive cooling. turns out it is. and they are even Watt rated for COB so you don't need to do any...

    man...amazing idea, I was about to drop a lot of $$ on the "traditional" heatsinks (2kw COB garden) but this makes the job so easier and cheaper. almost makes me wonder why anybody would prefer an aluminium plate over this. I could just mount these heatsinks between two L shaped metal strips...

    in the time I'm thinking of how to build the best panel for my situation i have started practice with my chinese leds to lower current, increase light spread and decrease heat. I wired them parallel because that's the only option I had with this drivers. ~400w veg panel all plants were...
