    New to LED looking for assistance designing a light

    I've had it in all day and it literally puts out NO heat! My grow room has been at 62 all day! Never raised a bit. Basement has gotten a little colder since it's nice out today and the furnace isn't running as much. It dropped from 71 to 68. I am in awe of this thing. Heat sink aren't even warm...

    I've done one plant for the last few years. It only takes about 5 weeks to fill the screen or less. I'm not wasting near as much energy as I was with the 400w mh. With the old set up I was pulling close to a pound on one plant. Go back and look at my other journals. I tried multiple plants in...

    I'm a believer now! I can feel it! Now the air pulls in and is pushed across the fins of the heatsinks. Nice steady flow coming out the ends of the heat sinks. I honestly don't even think I needed fans. Those 5.66 sinks are plenty.

    I actually gained height. It's slimmer than the cool tube and I got rid of all that hose! I'm able to lift this higher as a result. Kinda scary having 30lbs of metal hanging above a plant. I'm gonna leave this a few days before I move my plant in there. Just to test out the ropes. I have a...

    Great googamoonga this thing is bright!!!! Oh and pulling air in is way better. Nice even flow coming out the sides of the heat sinks. Dimmin works good. Lol I think I coulda stuck a 75k in there! Way brighter than my 400mh at 50%. Now to hang it.

    Cobs mounted. Ugh. Time consuming process of squeeging Arctic silver 5. I taped each one off and used a razor blade to squeegy it. Made 3.5 grams do all 8 LEDs.

    If i turn them then it pulls air INTO the heatsink. I had them the other way originally. I thought the idea was to pull the heat AWAY from the heatsinks.

    Just to be sure.....I'm wiring these cobs in series right? Not sure why I just thought about this. I wired my fans parallel which I think is ok. They only draw .09a.
