    But you know 93 million mile ,or150 million kilometer (one astronomical unit ) is also wrong,because its the distance between the center of the sun to the center of the earth.(: :peace::peace::peace:

    Samsung Q-series strips

    Funny thing is the thickness of the pcb . in the 1 and 2 feet its a 1.6mm ,and in the 4 feet its 1mm same as h strips,all copper pcb,i guess same like the f strips 1mm pcb

    i think they are more comparable with h strips,but yes ,f strips win :bigjoint::bigjoint::bigjoint::bigjoint:

    Samsung Q-series strips

    don't get me wrong,i agree about having many strips is a pain in the ass,but i do grow some great weed with great yields on a ~192lm/w 4*8 (f strip) rig ,i grow 50-55cm plants 16 per 4*4 (half way scrog) ,so it depend on your method of growing. i dont agree that hi efficiency dont grow good...

    Samsung Q-series strips

    thanks for this @tomate i think that if you go for a high efficiency rig they are viable option,since the are cheaper than f strips

    Samsung Q-series strips

    hi at 19.7 watts and40c the q strips are 198lm/w (3500k) at 19.7 watts and 40c the f strips are 195.9lm/w(3500k) its a very small difference ,so it depend on the price Does someone carry them already ?digikey?

    F Series driver recommendation

    @Prawn Connery http://www.wago.us/products/pluggable-connector-systems/connectors-for-special-applications/connectors-for-lighting-and-electrical-equipment/lumi-nuts™/ i used them before ,they work good,better to tin the stranded wire with them.

    F Series driver recommendation

    @Randomblame ,@1212ham i just did a test with 4 feet f stripe and elg-150-c1050 The driver should be 1.0713A and current tolerance +- 1.6% ,i did not measure the current ,so take it as it is. the stripes went to ~74- 75c room temp is 27-28c ,no air movement,no sink.i used a fluk ir thermometer...

    F Series driver recommendation

    because its double the diodes and more than double the sink/pcb .the single row is 18mm wide and the double row is 39.8mm,so they designed it with extra 3.8mm of the copper pcb for better heat dissipation . :peace::peace::peace:

    F Series driver recommendation

    There are terminals with cover as well,i would still use the wagos ,its so easy especially if you light 4 strips and use the wago 5 ports,and perfectly insulated,not to mention there are no screws . I had several near fire with terminal screws on hps magnetic ballast's ,the natural wire went...

    F Series driver recommendation

    it's not fragile like large diameter solid copper,its quite flexible .Get a 300v rated solid core (some are full copper, some are coper tin mix both work fine. You can have the 14awg stranded from the driver to the light (for flexibility ) ending at an electric box that contain the 2 waggo...

    F Series driver recommendation

    i would go with option no.3 (wago) and try to have all the wires from the wago to the strips the same length (in order to avoid voltage drop diferenc from strip to strip ). in this method if one strip went out the others will not be effected (except for current rise ).if you daizy chain the...

    F Series driver recommendation

    as you can see in the report 600h-48a ,A type will go to 14.1amps instead of 12.5amp in the specs .B driver will go to 12.5amps. in the cc.cv A meanwells the voltage is also adjustable and in your case (600h-48a) it will go to 50.4 volts,so you have the potential of 50.4V*14.1A=710.64 watts...

    F Series driver recommendation

    hi sir connery meanwell A type drivers (with build in pot) will go over rated current (we love them for this). go to meanwell site ,to your selected driver,and see the "report" section. wach the current adj. range for the real max current on your chosen driver(the 240h-c2100 for exemple go to...
