Any chance of a cheaper 3070 kit? The cheaper mechatronix radials instead of pin sinks with 3070s at 50w each. Hard to justify over $2/w for a DIY light. The mechatronix radials are 1/2 the price of these pin sinks and I'm someone with no need for fancy angled cooling.
A no frills every man kit.
4 x 3070s ($34 US each) $136
4 x radials ($15 or less each retail) $60
1 x lgsu200 (no need for a 5 cob driver) $58
4 x solder less holders $8
Misc $10
$274 US, using cutters prices where I could(all but the radial heatsinks)
Tap some holes and you can sell it for $300 per and I'd buy one. $1.50/w is more like it for "some assembly required"
Or a higher wattage 3590 kit.
3 x 3590($55 each for holder, reflect, etc) $165
3 x mechatronix megas($20 each retail) $60
1 x 200w lcn 1.8A $55
Misc $10
$290
$420 for the high end 3590 kit (164lm/w)
$300 for the every man 3070 kit(154 lm/w)
I'd also be interested if cutter started carrying citizen leds. The $12 retail clu048s that pump out 152lm/w @ 37w each(3500k, 80cri) more specifically.
