    DIY build with PC fans?

    I just put them on 12V 1A adapter parallel, one on each side, you can find on aliexpress or ebay the ones with speed control for around 5$ but no need since you want them on max power...2x 2 inch M4 screws up and down on each vent to give them room to breathe...those on the pics are 120mm, i...

    DIY build with PC fans?

    Why not just put them on the side of the tent with a couple of longer screws to keep the sides at some distance? ;)

    The far red thread

    I have cree -00701, so i should be good with runing them 15min before and 15min after to keep it simple and still be in the safe zone concerning stretching?Does the stretch trigger immediately after you pass the 4000 micromole mark or do you have some headroom before it activates stretch?

    The far red thread

    For how long after lights out would you run 4 x FR @300ma in an 80x80cm?I'm guessing somewhere around 15min would do the trick

    Rapid LED. Am I right or wrong? COB pros, chime in please.

    I like the first one with 12 cobs @1400, that's more than enough light for 4x4 and a decent efficiency

    Still man, he was right and you were wrong, dollars and euros can't change that.Just my 2c

    Actually no you are not and you owe that guy an apology, say it's some new strain you've been smoking and it does that sometimes Watch the videos you posted again, what does he say how much energy goes to photons and how much on heat compared with currents? To put it simple...you have 2 rigs...

    F-Series Gen 3 DIY

    The strips are awesome and easy to work with i completely agree...i calculated in my build A1 184 lm/w and AY 198 lm/w, not a small difference at .097mA...i can get also 3500k DB instead of strips and run them at .875...AY would beat them probably but i am not sure where they stack up against A1...

    F-Series Gen 3 DIY

    Speaking of 200+ lm/w has anyone even seen the AY bin?Seems impossible to find anything with that bin, does it exist

    Passive heatsik

    Safe zone probably 80-100w, 150-70-10 is rated good for 60-70w...all rough estimate You have link for them?

    Will working around COBs give me a farmer's tan

    I don't think so but i would tell the wife it does, you might get her to get naked and go water the plants more often...win win

    Rider's first foray into LED strip lighting - Samsung H Series GEN3

    I have the same driver and i would use 6 of them, 2 in parallel...i think when i was doing the calc it was around <100mA per diode, less than 50% of what they can manage...the numbers were around 190 lm/w for 5000k 80cri s6, didn't calculate the other colors

    Rider's first foray into LED strip lighting - Samsung H Series GEN3

    Nope but it is much easier just to ask someone who already has them instead of going through 40 pages of specs just to find that one little bit of info, also if you have only started to looking at strips "8sx9p" doesn't mean a lot to you...that little quote is about all the info there is in the...

    Rider's first foray into LED strip lighting - Samsung H Series GEN3

    @Rider509 I currently have 4 cobs 3000k 90cri on hlg-240-1750, just gonna increase efficiency by adding 3000k 80cri strips to the circuit...gonna run everything soft and see what happens

    Rider's first foray into LED strip lighting - Samsung H Series GEN3

    For 22" is 8sx9p on F and 8sx6p on H...if they use same chips it basically comes down to putting items in cart for F and then for H series(same number of diodes, not strips) and see which one wife is complain less about lol

    Rider's first foray into LED strip lighting - Samsung H Series GEN3

    Gonna have to go with digikey, free shipping and i'm in EU so that counts a lot more cause of v.a.t. and don't need that many anyways They use the same bin?

    Rider's first foray into LED strip lighting - Samsung H Series GEN3

    Figured it out, F series has 3 more parallel rows so 24 chips more per 22" strip

    Rider's first foray into LED strip lighting - Samsung H Series GEN3

    I wanna know for those specific boards, they'll go together with cobs on my driver so and 3 24v strips will fill the extra 72v and 875mA that is left just fine So i can chose from: 12x 1'H series, 3 sets of 4 strips(fits my space perfectly) 6x 2'H series, 2 sets of 3 strips 6x 2'F series single...

    185 lm/w versus 197 lm/w Where did you see 960 and 2240mA? @BuddyColas How much diodes in 22"?

    I am looking at the data and the H series looks better...what am i missing?
