60 watts is the maximum and efficiency probably isn't going to be very good. The test current provides 30 watts.

Probably 700ma, but you could overdrive them at 1.05 amps without being extreme about it.

Would 20 be too many for a 4x4 tent

[email protected] would be around 30 watts per square foot.
[email protected] is +-46 watts per square foot

Both would work.

I have those on my amare panel. 6 of them they're running about 30 watts each. . They're ok. They're the first cobs released by cree. So not as good as newer ones. I plan on upgrading them to cxb 3070 real soon.

If you can find them at clearance prices they are OK
