sick score bro. I'd throw some new cobbs on them, wire 2 per driver or something and get a few left over drivers for some other projects.

Played around with one of them. Increased the amps and it pulled 250w at at about 1.4amps. Approx.

Waiting for some extra funds and I'm going to get some new cobs.

In the mean time I'm veging (experimenting) with 4 of these lights @150w 0.6amps each. The clones are loving it. Getting lots of new growth. That's what the meter is telling me anyway.20180914_160011.jpg

Had to drill new screw holes as the new cob is much smaller. 3 more lights to set up. Haven't decided what power to run them at yet.
I also found out I'm shit at soldering.

I find that waiting until the iron is HOT HOT really helps. Tinning the wires and whatever you are joining prior to soldering the connection also makes for a great join. I use a weller and it's a great lil soldering station. Had a pos back in the day that was a headache to use, but anything weller makes or better ($40 price range and up? ) should be adequate.
