    Does anyone have a decent COB build for around $150?

    How many strips would you recommend and what kind of driver/other stuff would I have to buy? Can you make a recommendation on any of the other stuff as well? I have no idea how much of what I would need. I can Lego it togeather with YouTube's help I'm sure

    Does anyone have a decent COB build for around $150?

    I'm fine with diy, I just need help picking my parts, and then I can probably figure out how to get an together from YouTube videos :cool: I have no idea what I'm doing with these lights, but I've built quite a few computers before, so I'm familiar with thermal paste and heatsinks and being...

    Does anyone have a decent COB build for around $150?

    They're not COBs though, do they generate much heat? What kind of cooling do they need? Are they as efficient as cobs and have as good of a spectrum? What drew me to the cobs were how efficient they're supposed to be. Seems like they're the hot thing right now, due to them being the best...

    It's a normal led, not a cob. It's got small diodes, model HY-G08-60x5W-W . 60x5w diodes

    Looks like digi-key is sold out idk how much I trust these other sites I'm finding... don't understand what is included either, do these strips just need a power source And something you can mount them on, aluminum angle? What kind of connector do they have?

    Does anyone have a decent COB build for around $150?

    I'm not doing another edit. I found the roleadro 400w cob (just search amazon for that, I can't link) by searching for cobs, prime-able, cheap, and good reviews. Full spectrum anf 4.2/5 stars with 71 reviews, seemed like it had the most good ratings and was surprisingly cheap

    Does anyone have a decent COB build for around $150?

    I have a 300w normal led roleadro right now. I'm wanting to get a second light, I was considering the roleadro 400w cob, cause cobs seem like they're the place to be. The lights only $100, but I haven't bought it yet. If it's just the chips that are bad but the other bits are good, would buying...

    Oh haha that was my one guess, but I didn't know he sent out packages to fans! I figured who goes to the post office enough to make it sound like such a frequent casual event, it must not be that. :eyesmoke:

    Does anyone have a decent COB build for around $150?

    Was wondering how easy it would be to upgrade the roleadro if I bought it and wanted to later on. I'll check out cobkits, that's gotta be where the name came from

    Does anyone have a decent COB build for around $150?

    I'm pretty sure the other night I watched a growmau5 video where he built a frame and I think all the pieces already had holes in them and stuff so he didn't need a drill. Those parts would probably be more expensive, though. I can probably come up with a reason to borrow a drill... I was...

    Not sure what a PO run is, but hope it goes well! I'll be around when you're done :bigjoint: Thanks for the incoming ideas!

    Does anyone have a decent COB build for around $150?

    Alright, I'll buy a cheap cordless drill if needed and it won't come out of the $200 budget :) Got an idea in mind? I was actually directed to this forum to ask this question and was told you would probably help me out! You've got a good reputation! Heard your name quite a few times now...

    EB strips? Would you mind giving me a link or pointing me a bit closer to what I'm looking For? Platt comes up a lot when googling. EB strips are <$200 And good lights? I've heard the name Cobkits all around quite a bit. Is this a person? He is putting up some sort of chips somewhere for $10...

    Does anyone have a decent COB build for around $150?

    I'm sure I could figure it out, but I don't have the tools or parts and that would have to come out of the $200 max budget I'm looking to spend

    What's so bad about Roleadro? It looks like the cheapest tastyled is the T1-V196 which is $185. It's got one emitter one it, but I guess this should be enough for half my 2x4x5 tent right? It's weird their landing page shows a light with 2 emitters on it, but I can't seem to find any 2 emitter...

    Does anyone have a decent COB build for around $150?

    I've got a 2x4x5 tent, and I have a $70 300w roleadro led in there already. This is my first grow and my Caramelicious autoflower is still stretching. I really like it and my only issue is it doesn't cover the whole tent. I knew it wouldn't before I bought it. Now it's time to get a second...
