A thing of beauty!Just focus on the center plant for a sec

Finally someone with a pic. I love reading people massage model numbers and voltages all day. Send me a link to buy that setup. Thus accelerating the bud porn.Quantum boards though, 7 days yikes

Do you happen to have any CXB3590 chips in 72V? I'm looking to help clean out some people's inventories...

not sure why i keep taking your bait but is there any chip vendor out there with an accurate efficiency chart for any chips? is there any manufacturer out there that actually takes the time to measure real test data of different manufacturers? im not aware of any... you probably still believe that cxb is 56% efficient at 1400 mA in any real-world condition when it has yet to be demonstrated at all. and thus "anything under 55% is unacceptable" based on your ability to know what is right for everyone.
I get it you have some sort of troll condition, you havent posted anything in 2 days that wasn't a direct attack at me. that's fine. youre entitled to your opinion. Youre also welcome to do your own tests and present them as you see fit, nobodys stopping you. you can spout BS about "how im wrong" or you could put up some actual data to refute it. Not that i expect a response to this comment. your troll tactic is to repeatedly ignore when you're called out for BS, and pick up some new irrelevant incorrect assumption and pick at it. its pretty tiresome, tbh.
lol, cant make this up sadly

Yeah but quantum boards though...
This thread got stupid a few pages back so yeah,weed though?

I want to build it in chunks, spend about $1000 at a time and keep adding to it

Having trouble finding them, it also seems like they are just going to keep getting better over the next year. Your plants seem to be loving it, that is like a 3 inch stalk, I think you will need a chainsaw to harvest them.

Fortunately or Unfortunately this:
Will continue to be the case for the for the forseeable future. Like computers and other tech, the $800 computer today cost $8000 just a few years ago. You will never catch that train if you dont get on caus it ain't gonna stop.
HPS is end all? Not hardly... I did the blurple thing like a dumbass then moved on. Running COBS at efficiency levels no better than DE is stupid and pointless. We are WAY past that but whatever. I built a light 2 years ago that was 45%+ efficient with COBS. Here we are 2 years later and people are eating up cobs at 49% efficiency and lower like its the 2nd coming of christ.
And notice no one buys from those 3 companies?
Ill be done though. Nice garden sixstring!Raging Stalk

80% (800) for cobs, 15% for drivers, 5% for miscellaneous.
Drive them low enough to not have to use expensive heat sinks.

All the leading edge guys are going with quantum boards for reasons of price, performance and efficiency.
If I was starting now that's all I'd buy.

Bleeding edge is those who are trying to making qbs using cobs, aka high density cobs!
things aren't always mutual exclusive and if you can match two great things to make an even better thing, bonus. Plants already do it as shown with the Emerson Effect, so if a simple plant can figure it out, we should be able to.

First vendor who can offer them in custom sizes (panel) so people can easily replace them in whatever chinese blurple they have is going to be pretty wealthy.
Start with the most common Mars whatever unit and stock those sizes.

I think high density LED is a bit of a blind alley for our application. Wide light distribution improves efficiency, reduces the need for heatsinks or other cooling expense and cuts cost. These trends explain why plants and growers alike are responding so well to quantum board style technology.

Think of a film, similar to something like mylar that you could roll over a surface and plug in to create light.
That's where we are headed. Efficiency is the key to that reality.

When it's available I'm sure we'll use it. Until then, quantum boards will do nicely.

Being worked on in the lab now
Nanotech guys were even working on a paint like application method. Pretty cool stuff.
