Why? It adds additional cost and additional complexity, and will give you less light per watt. Multiple people are advising you against it. Don't make a mistake just because you got attached to your original plan.

So you're still planning on running one driver per COB?

What the fuck. The river of shit never stops flowing.

Yet many of the dudes who buy their QB knockoffs insist that they wouldn't cut corners, and that anyone who buys HLG's boards is getting ripped off. Go figure.

Then keep on rocking the blurple.

How do you know they aren't Samsung LM561C strips?

Yeah, I get the comparison between a single QB288 and four COBs, and your concerns about hanging height and wall losses - no argument there. I'm just hypothesizing that four QB120s or QB132s - in the same space, and at the same power - could at least match the uniformity of four COBs, without...

I'm genuinely not trying to start an argument (I'd lose anyway!), but I'm not grasping why - if COBs are superior - there shouldn't be an appreciable difference at the same intensity? My understanding of your assertion is that one COB per square foot will afford better uniformity than one board...

So you're expecting 625 grams?

Not at the higher ambient temps most LED growers end up running.

I'd love to see a real world side-by-side.

I've tried to get into IG, but I must confess the GUI confuses the fuck out of me.

Looking forward to seeing what you do with your next round, brother. You're still RiU's best bud-porn photographer, by a mile. Of course it helps that your buds are so damn sexy to begin with!

Terminal block.

I think the COB vs QB argument changes a little when you look at the QB120 and QB132. Using CobKits' pre-built light engines as an example of a COB setup that's as easy to put together as QBs are, the cost to outfit a fixture with one COB per square foot would be a little more than that of the...

I guess I can't say with certainty what really is more prevalent, but based on comments I see online, it seems to me that dry trimming is more popular. Some folks claim it results in a better end product, but I'm very happy with my wet trimmed bud, and the hassle of dry trimming isn't worth any...

Another wet-trimmer, I see. We seem to be in the minority!

But he thinks he has the knowledge, which is what makes this so comical.

You ever top?

^^^^This, 1,000 times over. Temps and humidity matter more than the lights you use. Apart from water, I don't think any other factor matters as much as environment.
