    New cob light setup Citizen or vero 29S? looking for best bang for your buck chip

    Will the new chip be available as a pre-built light engine? I'm looking at buying a second COB, but I'm not confident in building myself.

    Awesome, I'll definitely add a 12v power supply. Thanks about the wire nuts also, I'll drop you a message once I've ordered. Is the discount code still "RIU"?

    I should be able to handle the AC cord. Good suggestion on the Wago connector. So I would add a '2 pole' Wago to my shopping list. Could that HLG-120H-48A driver also handle the CLU058-1825 engine? https://cobkits.com/product/clu058-1825-light-engine-single/

    Good to know, thanks for clearing this up. After hearing more about thermal adhesive, I'm now having second thoughts about it. I want to get this right the first time, rather than an ongoing project that I improve later. Also good to know! The self tapping screws sound easy. I need to decide...

    Hehe yeah, I'm sure you're right about it being easy - once you know how. But I don't own the tools, and have no experience in metalworking. Correct me if I'm wrong, I thought thermal adhesive was semi-permanent? Thought I remembered reading about someone using a knife to pry the COB off the...

    Can Vero 18's be securely attached to a heat sink using only thermal adhesive? And if so, which is the best thermal adhesive for this purpose? I'm planning a Vero 18 light, and like to avoid drilling & tapping if possible.
