Hey Ttystikk, do you think the cobs have help contribute to more yield?

I'm trying to get my head around what cob chips equal to hps.

For example on the below link, what is the actual watts that unit would put out.

https://cobkits.com/product/clu058-1825-light-engine-single/

I'm not @ttystikk , but looking over that page it looks like everything is there for you "except" the driver. The driver will determine how many watts that pushes out. I'm pretty sure that's the lights @nevergoodenuf is making now............but I could be wrong..........

@Evil-Mobo I have switched to the CLU058 3618 @ 250 watts. Still keeps me around 140 lumen per watt. One 240-c2100 will give me 253 watts. But I am still running the Luna 300, also.

Hey now, maybe I wanna know too!
It was a courtesy to not clog up your thread with off topic stuff. But since you asked.

I am thinking of a single COB fixture in 5000K that I'd like to run passively with pin heat sink but was unsure as to the driver to use. Eyeballing the Vero 29 gen 7 50V if ever released lol. Wanted to see how this would work for clones/seed starting to mess with distance of light to plants etc. Instead of buying a two COB fixture or building one only to dim it down halfway was considering the single COB application for this particular "experiment" if you will.

I will simply add this. In my testing in my garden T5 lights with the 6500K GE bulbs have performed the best for me for veg and starting seeds. I am fully aware of the fact that the T5 is not the most efficient light source etc etc, but have yet to find a solid replacement. As you can see in @OneHitDone thread on growing lettuce and things of the sort, a lot of LED lights out there are causing mutations on the younger and more sensitive plants in this delicate stage of their life. But I know there has to be another alternative. So I am just searching for the right fit for me and my garden.
