that desperation to have conversations on his other forum
Just get it independently tested already and lay to rest all these claims of efficiency
I will independently provide Par-Mapping on the new XB prototype (that went out for sale in real production twice??, IDK man!
Does this look anything like this ?
Or does this look anything like this?
Amare ran a solid yr of testing before releasing the Pre-Production models (LM561, 65k's instead of the 301b, 65k's so fixtures could be produced & used ASAP w/o compromise, there were NO bugs to iron out). I ran the Proto for a whole year prior to release of something Pretty Darn different.
HLG did the same with the Elite. Which is probably what she'll end up with in 6 months from now after ironing out all the quirks & sourcing the top-bin EpiStars or another new diode she's testing next week, thermal mngmt needs assistance, the Drivers are 120 or 220v as of now. No Dimmer but heard they can be hooked up directly to a TRIAC Dimmer. So for like $30 on Amazon one could run several, a whole room or individual boards.
@Big Perm noticed that.
These boards get hot & nerd a fan blowing over them.
She did provide a very timely build, fast R + D by finding & correcting any potential flaws in the HLG desighn along with testing a bunch of new components & options.
I am in disagreement & slightly dissapointed with the producing & selling of these XB boards prematurely. Not gonna lie now, yesterday or tomorrow. My thoughts are just that.
The Gen2 will be the BeesKnees I'm sure & these are pretty awesome, deffinetly better then most other rgb options out there.
I may just put these up against the Pro-4's which come in around 1.9 umol/j & are the original Equetorial Spectrum. Wish i had the new Canna-Spec models with Veros (not that new, 1.5 yr at least). But i feel unless she beats out the Trinity with the 84x's then i have to stick to my word of only getting the Bar-8 if wins this comp.
Although i may put an efficiency Handi-Cap, splitting the difference into play, so that may gove the XB's the chance to go against the Editted: Bar-8
She needs her Gen2's to compete with that i think.
