Yeah, I guess epoxy is what I meant vs. adhesive...I'm using this with the COBS in the holders http://www.amazon.com/Antec-Diamond-Thermal-Compound-Formula/dp/B004AGXHDC Mostly because that's what was in stock at best buy and I couldn't wait for shipping.

why?

I used the 2 part arctic silver thermal adhesive and I *thought* I applied it pretty good.... for the fans I just connected all the black wires together and all the red wires together. Maybe there were imperfections in the heat sink that caused a bad connection, maybe it wasn't perfectly flat? I...

I should also mention that I think I'm way under running the fans, 6v @ 300ma split between three fans...that was probably pretty dumb

probably, i've since moved onto holders but I have two other fixtures mounted the same way...keeping an eye on those.

Not sure what happened. It got so hot it baked the surface layer, melted the solder on the - solder point, and after just touching it, it flaked off showing a burnt bottom and heat sink. I inspected by touching the heatsink and pad and it had the worst smell ever, I can't even describe it, so...

You should use that cake to inoculate a monotub, you can use coco and vermiculite as the substrate, throw in a little used coffee grounds and some aged horse manure if it's available..you'll go from counting grams to counting ounces

You're being lied to! You're being manipulated! Why are you OK with that?! They got on t.v. with a vial of baby powder and lied right to your fucking face! They ruined our economy and got THOUSANDS of americans killed! Everytime someone goes on with their "I suppor the troops" bullshit all...

It's a total travesty!! I would think that someone who lost a loved one because they were used as a pawn for power brokers would be as outraged as I am. I have lost friends and family and I don't mourn their death as some nobel sacrifice made for the good of others...I see it for what it is...

Rub some butter on it, it'll take away the sting. Want to have a WW2 day? I'm cool with that...want to pretend that politicians aren't throwing american kids into the military industrial meat grinder for political and financial gains? I'm not cool with that.

That's exactly what I'm saying. Glad to see someone has reading comprehension skills

Guess what dumb dumb. I'm a VFW, I know the cost of war. Sorry to tell you this but your son died for millionaires who wanted to control the price of oil. I know it makes it easier to say it was for freedom but we both know that's a lie. I'm not shitting on soldiers, it's weird that's how you...

I don't know what this means.

Revisionist history. People think we joined WW2 because it was the 'moral and just thing to do'. We got dragged into that war after pearl harbor. People act like we banded our forces and rushed off to europe and the pacific to 'save the jews and liberate the french!' Even still, I can look at...

All day I've seen the same nonsense being repeated on facebook..."they died so we can be free" or "remember our hero's" and I'm here to tell you that it's all bullshit. What's the difference between these people and the muslims who perpetuate the notion that if you blow yourself up, if you...

Nice build, just curious why the shrouds are spaced away from the fan. If you put them next to the fan wouldn't you force more air through the channels?

I felt like I should update this in the very off chance that someone might give a shit :) The fix was a simple one, Like most of you suggested I just added a little epsom ( 1/4 tsp per gallon ) and everything's back on track. The 36w of led's are slightly out performing the 100w worth of cfl's...

What a card. I can't tell if Dong Hyun Kim is legit or if Burkman is just washed up, either way he's one to watch. Arlovski vs. Brown was the fight of the night. So many times though I see fighters get someone in deep deep trouble and they don't finish. Do they really punch themselves out that...

Good point if you're using a single light for veg and flower. I didn't think about that. However, if you're just using the light for flower I still have the same opinion. After building my lights with cpu coolers I would have to agree that using something from heatsinkusa is more practical...
