    DIY with Quantum Boards

    That really depends on what you are trying to do with them. I'm not really that familiar with the 324 V1, I just recall they had a pretty high V number, which I confirmed by searching this thread.

    DIY with Quantum Boards

    Those V1 324 boards are over 100V. That driver doesn't have enough voltage available to run both at 1400ma in series. If you parallel the boards, they'll split the 1400ma and both light up at least. That should actually come pretty close to the full power of that driver, while running each...

    Post your Bridgelux buds

    Here's a mid level side branch, on one of my pollen chucks. Fifty nights. This is under Gen1 BXEB, combination of 3500K/3000K. Been running that lamp since 2017. Long live the BXEB series.

    That lamp will pay for itself in one run.

    This spectacular specimen, is the second seed popped, and first confirmed female, from the F4 group I created from the Stardawg F3 preservation pack I was awarded. It's pretty remarkable, that the first two beans released what I believe, to be a show horse male, then a smokin hot fem, who is a...

    Kingbright 320w help.

    That's not normal. That driver will max at 6.7A at 48V according to the data sheet, so even at full rip, won't exceed the boards max. @Rocket Soul what's going on here?

    Once you get over that initial wave, it will get a lot easier. The beginning is the most frustrating. That is a fabulous instrument right there.

    Custom eb strip led build write up (files available)

    Looking at the backs of the strips, you can see which areas are safe. Some of the EBs had mounting holes for lenses, that would cause shorts if used for screw mounting. That being said.... (lengthy applause) :clap:

    Attitude seeds-first time buyer

    Have you considered ordering from any of the trusted US based options? By avoiding an overseas shipment, you can guarantee you'll get what you paid for, likely in less than 14 days. My last order took 8 days from clicking submit, to opening my packs. Attitude has a selection that is unmatched...

    How many times a day colloidal silver

    Now, of course sourcing the ingredients will be far more cost effective, but I can tell you for certain, that the 2 part kit that I got from Twenty20 Mendocino on eBay for $25, was 100% effective.

    Why isn't this the perfect light for budget grow?

    What I find ironic, is the marketing for general use LED "bulbs" uses exactly the opposite method of advertisment. Looking at the packaging of a standard screw in bulb, often times the actual power draw will be featured much larger than the comparison to incandescent. Uses only 14 Watts.

    Question about taking clones from week 5 budding plant.

    Some strains will re-veg faster than others. There will be frightening and bizarre mutated growth, sometimes for weeks on end. Do not be discouraged, they will eventually return to normal growth patterns.

    I did a bad thing...I don’t regret this thing I’ve done

    I feel like HLG would want the awareness. That company has never once demonstrated any instance of trying to conceal any potential issue with their products, that I am aware of. Quite the opposite from my experiences.

    Mosca Blue Hindu, and Skywalker OG BX

    I popped a 5 pack of each, all 10 sprouted. One of the Blue Hindus looked a little funky. I always score a few exacto cuts across my root riot tops, so I can peek at the seed when I get irrationally impatient. The wonky looking Hindu, turned out a set of twins, that had tied each other up into a...

    Qb96 5x5 tent

    This right here. Pound for pound(pun intended) the QB96 Elite is difficult to beat. I own, and use several. I run each 96 on its own XLG-200-H-AB. Extremely versatile, and really pack a punch. I've built with everything from COBs, to boards, to numerous brands/sizes of strips, in the end, the...

    Newbie questions about DIY or lighting kits for a 2'x4' tent

    Indeed. HLG-320H-42(A, B, or AB.) You've got the right idea. I don't know of a 39V driver, but you're thinking about it correctly. Use the almighty Octopart search engine, with actual part numbers, for all your compulsive component gathering needs! Mean well XLG series can also offer some...

    Me personally, I'm not opposed to REGs (I ran a whole pack of Lucky Lime) but I understand why, the FEMs are more popular. With preservation genetics, more experienced growers, or those with more space available (likely a mutual situation) regulars are even more enticing. Tricky spot Useful...
