Yea, holy crap. When I saw the one you posted was like $2 I figured I would find them for like 5 and getting screwed! 2 bucks vs 18 + shipping.

Crap, I forgot to ask if you had used that eBay seller before. It says estimated ship times I would get it late Jan early Feb.

Sweet man, thanks for the reply. For some reason I thought the A's could not be dimmed while the B's could. I did not realize the A's have them built in. I've always seen people say make sure to buy the B of you want to dim. Are the built in ones any good? If using a 3rd party dimer gives more...

I'm getting ready to purchase the cobs/driver/parts and I have a question or two. The first being from the list of stuff have I overlooked anything critical/useful? The second question being I can't figure out what kind or where to buy a dimmer for the HLG240H-C1750B. I know the driver only...

Thanks for the reply! It will be a close one... but. I'm trying to "future" proof my build a little. Eventually I'd like to move to a 2x4 tent and I would be able to just buy another driver and more cobs.

Hi all! I'm trying to buy smart so I can easily upgrade parts later when I get more room. I'm starting out in a over sized spacebucket using 32 gallon trash cans. I want to run Bridgelux Vero 29's and be able to just add more cobs/drivers when I upgrade my space. So right now I only need to...

Ah, so much stuff to be aware of. As a noob it's a lot to soak up! I'll see if anyone else chimes in. Thanks again for answering me! I really do appreciate it!

Hmm. I've dug a little deeper and I'm wondering if I have this right. The Bridgelux datasheet shows the C-7x versions can use between 64.2-69.74.6V @ 1710mah and between 68.8-80V @ 3420mah. I assume those ranges are the absolute minimum to turn on and maximum to run safely. The Meanwell...

Thanks a lot for the information! That was one thing I was unsure of; the cob can handle 71V but at that amperage(1750) it was using 69.5V. The numbers are very close so I didn't know if there was a "fudge" factor and it would work. I guess it does not! Trying to find the right setup for my...

You're right about that! So one of theme requires about 69-70V and will use around 118-120W @ 1750mah. So 2x the cobs would be 136-140V and 236W @ 1750mah. So the HLG-240H-C1750 would be enough for 2x the cobs(I think). Do you think this would be ok?

Thanks for the reply! I had overlooked that fact about the driver. Looking around some more it seems that the 3500 c vero 29's are impossible to find. I'll likely go with BXRC-30E10K0-C-73 which has a voltage range from 66-74V and HLG-240H-C1750 which has a voltage range of 71 ~ 143V. Running...

Bump

Ha, good call. I'm new to all things led/cob related so I'm still learning everything. I was thinking in my head op was using the less powerful driver(140? 180? I forget the exact numbers) vs the one I listed(240), but I just now looked closer at his picture and he's using the 320. So I guess I...

Hey all, I'm wondering if I can power 1 Vero 29 gen 7's(BXRC-35E10K0-C-73) with a meanwell hlg-240h-c2100. I'm broke and will be starting out small but start with things I can easily add more of later. My end goal is 4x BXRC-35E10K0-C-73 in a smal grow tent. But right now I'm limited to a...

Sick setup man! Pretty much my ideal setup. I'm thinking of getting the C series Vero 29's and running them hard(I'm thinking 2 per hlg 240 2100). My big concern now is heat, I want to go passive but I'm not sure I can drive them that hard without active cooling.

Umm, I really haven't thought about it haha. I suppose the going rate for other "premium" seeds, $10-20?

Does anyone know where you can get single IHG seeds? Some of their strains have me drooling...

Very nice man! Looking good!

@Danielson999 @Evil-Mobo Thanks guys! This is exactly the type of input I was looking for. In all honesty I want(ed) to run the cobs hard in order to break the 20k lm mark. Now I'm going to have to rethink that! That's exactly what I'm planning on doing! :)

Good spot on the driver! I have been doing a bunch of research I intended to post HLG-240H-C2100B Yea, I agree but I'm planning on getting a 4x2 tent which I will buy additional cobs/drivers when I get it! It is a lot, it seems like it *CAN* be done but somewhat expensive and big.
