    Help setting up without a par meter

    Help setting up without a par meter

    It's in a 4x4 tent. So 1 board at 150w to equal the efficiency of 3 cobs. How about all 4 boards? They are on one driver parallel. And @Randomblame thats a fair bit isn't? Currently on 500w at 20inchs and leaves are serrating like a gooden. Yet this low on the w/sqft I thought it was just...

    How is everyone hiding their wires

    That would be good for all the mains leads but I'm more interested in the small wires between cobs and boards and such. Im thinking may just have to silver tape over them or electrical tape but was wanting a neater look

    Mounting driver outside tent

    Either cable grommets through the frame or into junction box and just make sure the cables are secured to the frame so no movement

    Mounting driver outside tent

    I was undecided for a while has all my drivers in the frame, I use solid core for the cobs to a joiner then was my driver and stranded stranded cable the other end, I just swapped it around so the driver has a plug direct and the other end has a joiner or insulated then stranded flex up to the...

    Iv been asking the same question. I think Stephen said to run them the same power as the cobs so I'm guessing same distance so I'm running 35w each cob/board

    Cob + board hybrids

    Iv re done mine again for now until I get more heatsinks for the boards and a bigger frame or just one big alli sheet to attach everything to. One thing I did notice with these 3500k Samsung boards is that on 20w per board they look much more white although this could be my camera as I couldn't...
