I cant find that driver. How are you dimming them? Is it on the driver?

Those cobs pull some power at 69.4v. 80w your driving them at around 600ma approx
160w your driving them at 1.2amps approx
225w your drovong them at 1.8amps

It seems as though your dimmer has increments 600ma apart and because both cobs combined are 138.8v its a pretty big jump in wattage each step. Thats my guess.

I couldn't get a HLG like I wanted. This is the driver I have.

I got Mark to throw in a 1-10v dimmer. But, I think it's cooked.

Cancer is fkd.

Found out a few days ago a close family member has the Big C. Maybe 12 months to live.

I know Coco does some charity and im sure others may do as well. Not after charity but im after good info please.

Ive just started to flower a CBD Crew Shark (its a 7 and 7 from memory). Whats the easiest way to help elevate pain and settle the chemo treatment? They are on pretty strong Morphine dose im told. Her age is around 70. Good lungs and vital organs.
Any good links welcome but would prefer recipes, dosages etc etc.

I know im asking a broad question. Thanks in advance.

im hardly an expert but my guess is the dimmer. probably worth talking to cutter about it or heading to one of the LED threads and asking.

i assume your planning on running it right up around 190-200w? in the future i would buy a driver that can handle a bit more than your asking of it then dimming it down. that way your not working it at its maximum and also if you do decide to push a little harder you can. those COB's have a maximum rating of 3.4 amp which means even running them at half power you could easily be going for 230-240w without them even breaking a sweat.

in anycase i would take anything i said with a grain of salt and go ask someone who has a better idea of this stuff because im only just working all this stuff out myself

I used to ring them up and pay with C.C over the phone, I haven’t bought seeds from Europe in close to 2 years so things could be different now.

They stopped cc a few months ago when herbies did so I just set it up for bank transfer..might still be able to do it over the phone
Bonus with bank transfer is 5 free beans but most of the time only one or two have the rep to grow them out

it was a while back now but when the visa and mastercard first cracked down attitude couldnt do credit card orders so they started up a sister site "the choice seedbank" to get around some red tape. its still up and the FAQ page says they take credit card orders but whether or not the card companies put a stop to it or not i dont know. havnt ordered from them in years

Go check out Rick Simpson’s website pheonixtears.ca or YouTube search his name but in my opinion you want the high THC Indica oil. Dosage is the hard part they have to build tolerance before they can handle a medical dose one of the guys that I gave some to had too much (half a tic tac size drop) and it literally leveled him for 3 hours his wife rang me at 10 at night and thought he was going to die so they have to work their way up over a 2 week or so period if possible but if it’s really bad they need to dose up as heavy as they can handle ASAP.
Let me know after you’ve checked a few things out and I can help out with the process but it’s pretty straight forward can’t help with any oil at the moment unfortunately

Had to cancel my visa card. People tried to charge 800 dollars for a cruise. They got into RTA and got peoples visa details.

I'm running them with what Mark suggested I use. As that was my first time building a light.

And yes. I've been running them at about 150-180w.

-Edit-

The dimmer is dodgy. Once I take it out of the loop. The lights shine brightly. When it goes back into the loop. The lights either flicker, or they're running at a low-ish 80w.
