Inventronics webpage is the worst of all the led gear suppliers its half impossible to navigate and different versions for us and the rest, dont ask people to go and find the datasheet of the driver to figure things out. They/I tell you yes but misstake , it dont work, and then were not friendly any more ;)

Just link the datasheet or page of the exact model youre after and the board specs and its easy to figure out. And you need to mention parallel or series connections and 120 or what volts AC.

Love the inventronics drivers though. I will add the data sheet or link

I like them aswell:) their constant power range is is excellent with so many version you can drive any voltage and never lose out power like the old CC drivers. But their web...

Meanwells web is excellent and their drivers just seems so much easier to understand from model nr. Pro-tip to meanwell users: google "meanwell modelnr report" using whatever model you need info on. You get their special report which has real output/voltage range for A-type dimmer models, ac draw etc: these nrs seem to always be a bit higher or wider than the spec: A dimmer suppose to bring you down to 50% it goes a bit further in reality and a bit higher aswell, current on B type dimmers is a hit higher, voltage adjustment range a bit wider etc. I like the extra info aswell as knowing that they are all a bit over spec, feels nice to know that they take their spec seriously :)

Please links to both, ill hit you up on private to show you how to figure it out next time, and maybe even help the next needing diyer ;)

I have to double check but I thought meanwell had a newer version similar to inventronics. I liked meanwell in the past just got a bit hot but inventronics seems cooler .

Also I would like to learn how to properly read a driver and match it up to the appropriate led fixture. One thing I've always want to get around to eventually and you seem very knowledgeable

Meanwell got a new fancy and very expensive constant power driver that goes all the way to 58V. Think its called the cgcv or something. Looks very nice and my guess its specifically for grow lights.

Just pass me the hlg spec sheet for their new qb and i can help you, pm me

Been trying to find the individual data for every quantum board such as qb648, qb548, and qb592. All I can find is efficiency reports of the fixture itself.

Then you need to contact HLG to make sure. My best guess is yes it will work but i try not to give firm advice on guesses. Id rec keeping the driver not too far away from boards though, the diablo is quite cloe to 57V in previous versions. More info in you pm

Edit: can you see this board in any light on their web? Figure out whoch driver theyre using, if it has same voltage spec as your driver option then should be good to go.
