240s a bit weak for a 3x3, but if you mount two boards on a sheet of aluminium (spaced nicely apart) and use an xlg 150 you can run them 75w each , obviously x 2.
This is also an option. but the added coat of am aluminum sheet I feel is better spent on the 2-5 extra strips. Because 10 of them is the same price as 4 HLG QB132s
The ones I linked to are there most economical model and what most members here would point you to if you asked what color temp to go for. The linked strip is 48V 2' length in 3000K CCT 90CRI.

$10 a strip for 112 LEDs on a 2' PCB? What's comparable at arrow for that price?would like to add to cutter atm their shipping is not the best so just a warning on the shipping if your in the states its just more cost effective to get strips from arrow but those cutters work well just don't break the solder joint on the cutters. this is in my opinion at least because when I've ordered from arrow I've been super happy with them idk might be because I get my strips in less than 3 days. you can go any way you want its just better to run more strips in general but those cutters for that much money a a strip I just wouldn't do it.
bxebs, lol you do know everything is going to be more expensive because of how big trump fucked up. 9 bucks a strip doe
I wish I still had my 4 a pop strips lol rip economy I guess
no I just orderd cutter sol skins and I did not have a good run in with them compared to my bxeb build. but that's the same thing with powertech doe his shits been ordered way over 2 months still hasn't gotten his b's.
There's not 112 LEDs on the bxebs though. And they only put out 2400 lumens and the cutters put out 4500 at 500mA and 9000 at 1amp. So... Bxebs are a dollar less and put out 1/4 the light. Cutters strip blows them away, brother.
idk man my bxebs got 112 leds idk what u on about
I didn't look at the data sheet, just from the pic and how far their spaced I didn't think they did. But that just further establishes my point. Same amount of diodes for 1/4 the output. Cutters are a better value by far. If shipping is worrisome, just contact Mark @welight and ask him for a realistic time frame for delivery @Radagast the Brownthumbed
thing is customs and how much cutter charges you for shipping yea if u can get ahold of mark that's a big if sent him 2 emails already asking for a replacement strip nothing. id rather pay half the money for more coverage also when their normal priced their about 5 bucks a pop so you can double up the strips. good luck getting your stuff shipped tho especially now.
When you say 'doe", youre meaning "though", right? I just wanted to be sure it's not an acronym I'm not savvy too. Lol
you are right sir
Those colors make everything easier to keep things in order and coding with colors ensures future maintenance, if ever needed, is a breeze. Its not necessary by any means, but can be very helpful.
Just meant to be funny why would someone drop that money on leds and not know how to use them ?
