    The Chinese Quantum Board Knock Off Builds

    If your water is heavy in calcium it could leave deposits. Can’t you direct the mist somehow? There should be enough air circulation if your tent so that the mist can’t even reach the light.

    1 week into flower. Unfortunately one of my plants ended up being a dude. Weak ass shit, from the pre flower it looked elongated but once it got a couple of days into flower it showed it’s dirty balls. The joys of non fem’s.

    The Chinese Quantum Board Knock Off Builds

    Well to provide an update to my light build, after a week of use, my tent temps are steady at 83f. My 6 inch exhaust fan is at about 60% with RH maintaining 50%. The outer boards are running at 180w and the centre boards are at 140w. Slowly upping levels until reach 550-600w total. Found a...

    Sorry, I shouldn’t joke. Some people might actually see that and throw out their DIY plans out because they can’t find high-spec aluminum.

    Oooo I’d be careful, HLG uses high spec aluminum.

    I’d always recommend KB from my experiences but Meijiu is reliable as well. The company with the cheapest prices I’ve seen on Ali is Yuanhui Led Limited. In terms of a 100 watt panel what exactly do you mean?

    The Chinese Quantum Board Knock Off Builds

    Those high lights do look nice, too rich for my blood but it’s nice to know my 48ab drivers will power a pair of the boards. I wish it was the end of March so I could see what the KB setup can do! Anyone have a grow on the go using China boards with the added Cree 660’s?

    It’s definitely hard to pull the trigger on which configuration to go on. I was looking at the qb272 as well but decided against it due to the fact that a tiny mechanical switch can easily break if used aggressively or simply too many times. Which at that point would leave you in a situation...

    Just heard on the news that the Chinese government has extended the lunar holiday well into February to try to contain the outbreak. This is most likely the reason for shipping delays off Ali. There’s nobody working to process the shipments.

    Wuhan is actually in Hubei province and all these LED companies are in Quangdong province (Shenzhen city) with Hunan province in between the two. Mainland China has closed it Hong Kong borders to the mainland, I think this is the shipping issue. All packages from Ali are shipped out of Hong Kong...

    Good to hear that they honoured the refund policy. To be honest, putting myself in there shoes, I’d be worried about order cancelations due to the fear mongering supplied by the good old media outlets. You may see some discounted prices on Ali in the future if this outbreak keeps up. They will...

    Yeah to be honest, you’re concerns are valid. With the infection numbers rising in China, who knows how long this will affect their daily operations for. I got my stuff shipped literally just before the outbreak.

    Yup, you have to select request refund. Tell her you need the packages sooner than the supplied shipping date. If she resists contact Alibaba directly. Did you pay with a credit card? If going through Ali is becoming a pain, call the credit card company and state that you wish to cancel the...

    You can always request to cancel your order. It’s not a huge deal. Then you can go with HLG or the company rocket suggested. There’s many options available. As long as it doesn’t say shipment started then you’re good to go.

    If you want to keep it simple, I would buy two of the qb288 kits that have the 301b/h with the cree 660 730 and Uv. If it’s your veg/flower tent I’d probably go 3500k since you’ll have the added cree 660’s to compensate for the lower red amounts in the 3500k Samsung’s.

    Grab two 240w kits, either separate heat sinks or two boards on one. You could buy a 550 copy but you will have hot spots. Your choice. Spectrum choice is personal preference and purpose.
