I'll take your word for it man! I don't intend on playing around with deadly electricity.
I'm now looking for two drivers to run 4 strips in series each. I found Meanwell's HLG-80H-C700A that I think could run the 4.
But I am wondering, is it correct to only be looking at HLG drivers for these LEDs or are other drivers also going to work good? Getting a 70W one would be ideal, since the 4 strips require exactly that much.

No LED requires an exact power level. The whites you linked are listed as 6.5 - 56 watts and the white/red/blue are 2.2 - 25.7

I am not sure how to understand your sentence, sorry. Are you saying I need to get the driver that will exactly match the wattage of my LEDs or that it is not important? If it's not important, then two HLG-80H-700A(B) should be good, right? Otherwise I need to find one that delivers 70W

I'm going with a single HLG-480H-42AB for all the whites, and I wrote to led-tech to recommend me two drivers for the white/red/blue strips, so I can run them in series and a CC driver. Ordering today! :hump:
