Can I have 10 wires going into one wago? I've bought 50 wagos. I'll type lol even though I don't find it funny Ok, Have a look at this before I go any further I've just watched a video of a greengenes series/parallel build which someone linked me. It's really helpful but I want to know...

Cool. I understand. I think it's because I haven't wired them up yet that I don't understand how this will make things neater. In my mind I'd then have two individual 2 ft strips connected in series, then I'd be wiring the rest as I would anyway.... So I've saved not much in the way of wagos...

I've watched a few youtube videos and multiple builds, but I can't find any specific wiring diagrams for my particular build. What I'm trying to get my head around is the point at which it becomes 38V. I'll explain. You say I can double back and have 2 strips wide, and this is the bit which...

Well, I remember you saying if I get the 2ft strips to get the 42V driver anyway so I could run a series parallel connection and make things neater, so that's what I did. I have no clue about wiring these things up but I'll get pictures now. Gimme a minute

Ok I got my order in and scrapped the idea of running different gen of lights. I got some 90 CRI 4000K strips for a veg specific light and a driver for the 8 strips I had over. So, after a really busy minute, I'm ready to start building. I need to know one thing about wiring, in particular...

Datasheet is as follows 2ft strips 19.1v eb slim 19.1v eb 4ft strips 38.2V eb slim 38.3V eb

Question: Any reason I can't run the Bxeb Gen 3 regular and slim versions on the same driver & fitting?

Now I need a bit of help knowing which way round to fit the strips and where the wires go Should be a doddle.....

We're building...

On my way out to get camera lead... Wago blocks haven't arrived yet. Got some connector block tho. I can use this and just replace with Wagos at a later point can't I?

Thought the datasheet would be enough. Might just run the 8 then. Will a HLG-240H-42A be dimmable below 240W if the strips are 39V rated? What size wire should I get to run to the light itself? Just a standard 3 core? Cheers

Nice. That's what I'll do

Thanks man You mean a wire stripper? I've got one of these wire stripper And yes, from the datasheet they are the same. I was going to use 4 x 4ft strips to make a veg light with the 8 which will be left over from one side. Not a good idea?

Oh and before I forget, Can I use the Bxeb Gen 2 & Gen 3 in tandem? Same voltages and diode count etc

Yep, wagos. Check. I'll grab a load of those. Dimmers, good shout... any in particular? Need to configure the hanging bits.... What'd be the most secure way to hang them do you think? Would a hole through the angle then ratchets through it be good? Thanks man

Hey, sorry for not updating in a few days. Been really busy. Ready to start building now and just need my final bits and pieces. Don't wanna start and then realise I need something else so let me just run this past you all and see if I've got everything I need. Drivers and strips obviously...

Ok scratch that... I need more important advice. Can I split the lead from the 480w driver to make two 240w fixtures using the 2ft strips so they're about 50cm apart? Driver's 42V strips are 19V Thanks Btw sorry for these abrupt replies and not properly responding to the posts so far in the...

That'd be something else pulling 2gpw. Just getting the space to live up to it's potential would be more than worth it. That's why I'm getting LEDs in teh first place, I just think they fit the eviornment better, to the point where I think they could allow it to properly flourish. We'll see...

Ever done it?

Hey mate don't mind me. Nuttin wrong with goin off on your own tangent. It's all relative stuff so..
