DIY with Quantum Boards

[Stephenj37826]

Hey y'all, how's the heat output of these boards?
Would 12,000 btus be enough cooling for a room with 4 QBs?
What about 8 QBs?

Plenty.... 3.412 btus per watt..... Bengaluru you want 4000 btu per 1000 watts of lighting.

So, the same as air cooled hids, then?
How hot do the LEDs themselves get, then?
I imagine that the LEDs themselves get hotter than t5s, which are relatively cool to the touch.

That's a bad deal, you should be able to find one for around 55-60$

I have 12k btu and even in a 100 degree garage it cools my 5x5 tent to 65-70 in a couple of minutes. I run 4xQB288 with a HLG-480H-2100B
