    DiY LED - Cree CXA3070

    Dear mates, I finally did it. 3 vero 29 lights and one dimmable driver. I know that the connection is not optimal and it is better to run them continuosly but I was not able to find the cheap way to do so... The parameters of the driver are: U = 42V I = 5.6A So each LED gets almoust 2A which...

    DiY LED - Cree CXA3070

    i am on the way so can not find the characteristics of both. you have 2 ways to connect such things as leds (and other things needs pwer) - parallel and series. Series will multiply voltage, parallel will multiply amperage. lets say you want to run 10 cobs series while each takes 40v and you...

    DiY LED - Cree CXA3070

    Hi there :) flowering needs more of red so you need 3000k ones. you have to calculate the number of COBs based on your room as more does not always means better. my example is a universal light. i am planning to use one 4000k and 2*3000k. 4000k for vega and 3000k for flowering. one 3590 will...

    Thank you very much, mate, The efficiency is my next level then :) Now I will start my first expiricence and it will show the rest. right now I am using UFO china led (150W on the paper - ~90W in real) which brings me 33g per pet. Hope my results will be better with COBs.

    DiY LED - Cree CXA3070

    Thank you Supra :) and the efficiency is more for electricity consumption? because the delta in cost difference is ~$70 so i will have to burn led for 30 circules to depreciate the delta vs the cost of the electricity burned with higher consumptiom on vero 29. anything else rather than...

    DiY LED - Cree CXA3070

    Dear Co-wokers, can you please have alook into my calculations. The delta in the cost of the solution is $78. The electricity is not that expensive in my country. THe target is to get the light ~ 20K lumens. Any comments will be appreciated. Vero 29 Cree CXA3070

    saw it. your garden is my dream. I am leaving in apartments so can not affort such dimentions :) 1-2 plans maximum. By the way my Big Bang Auto from GHS had skunk in the genetics so the odor was reallyh strong. Even the carbon filter was not able to sort it out :)

    Hi Man! thank you for your hints. I am planning to DIY the led light based on the Bridgelux Vero 29 diodes. But this is in the design phase. I must say that I have got 35 grams of pure hard "heads". But this is a low amount, I agree. Looks like the roots have been overwatered from the early...

    DiY LED - Cree CXA3070

    Dear Supra, can you please comment point 2? for me it mainly a grey area why, following my logic, led consumes the same as hps? looks like lumens are the same with the same wattage of both. what is oost in my logic?

    Fresh photos of my garden. The issue has been decreased slightly since the pot has been flushed with water (low PPM). Looks like it is not possible to fix the issue totally and the harvest is near. can you please advise on when I have to start with Ripen?
