    Lexan QB Heatsink or none

    Our 272 is robust but sticking it to plastic is probably not where I would go. For simplicity and fan removal, 3 mm flat plate will work a treat. The only fan you want is the main one you likely use in your area to just push air about. Most panel designs make assumptions about the rooms having...

    Replacing ballasts every 2-3 months ... why???

    I put some strips into my production area with old funky drivers, mounted to timber, driver failed within a day due to heat, mounted the next driver onto alu plate, then back onto timber, hasnt missed a beat since, still runs hot but dissipates through the alu plate. Maybe check the...

    Best led for veg specifically???

    For Veg, I dont see any issue with using 4000k, this is used by many on this forum and is well balance red to blue to avoid stretch which can occur if you move into 5000k and up. If you want stretch via control then 730nm give the shade avoidance effect so can be used to induce stretch and you...

    Best led for veg specifically???

    So my take on this could get wordy. Two points Phosphor coated leds do blend as a colour. If I build a board in equal parts 3000k and 4000k I get CCT of 3500k Monochromatic no so much, If I have 730 and 660nm on a board, spectrally I will have two SPD peaks of 730 and 660. Red and blue will...

    Custom eb strip led build write up (files available)

    rivets are ok if your holes on the board have safe zones, ie not no copper traces around the holes that will be cut into by the rivet. NEVER use super glues, these are cynoacroylates, these outgas and can create VOC's which will shorten your led life. best option is to drill and tap and screw...

    PPFD seems wrong

    I find the samsung data a little confusing. the datasheet says 3000k 80 CRI is min 168 lpw at a non listed drive current, 187 LPW at 450ma and 231 LPW at 1000ma, this cannot be correct and I assume it must be back to front, any ideas, on that basis its is hard to know what the umols/j would be...

    looking for Meijiu A8 650W reviews

    interesting how the china lights continue to dumb down, 660nm, picture looks like Osram but they dont state that, the high efficiency is white/red lights but is driven by red, but best performance is only best deep red, seems like they feel if they dont say they can drop in any old deep red, so...
