ill try to take some measurements in a 3x3 tent. i think it would give good coverage at 24"

for your 6 sq ft tent 2x1825 light engines at 110W each (2100 ma) would be great- like with an hlg240h-c2100b

nice! i figured as much

i hope to be ordering many more!

got any recs for dissipation on these? basically anything bigger than 1/4x 1" aluminum bar should handle it, right?

will depend as always what current you plan to run them at, but yes 1 inch bar should do it, ideally something like extruded finned rail would be best but depends what will be most cost effective

I use a FLIR thermal imager but there are fiducial marks on the board so you could solder a thermocouple to one of these, what do you usually use for temp measure?

I usually just go by manufacturers data or estimate temp by back calculating voltage/lumen droop

any recs on good decent type J or K thermocouples to solder to boards?
