Wrong Wattage HLG DIY Light

Hey folks!

I cannot seem to pull the right wattage from my diy HLG light.
Its made up of 4 QB288 V2 (non re-spec) boards.

Running in parallel at 2 per driver.
The drivers are both the Mean Well HLG-240H-C2100A

At that current (2100mA) I should see about 140watts per board, which would look something like 560 watts.
I only get 250 Watts. I think it's possible my watt-o-meter might be junk, but the reviews were good so I'm not sure.

The only pic I have of it, it's currently not with me but here it is (attached) before cable management

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

You need to run 2 panels per driver in SERIES.

And you will only be able to pull 400w total.
Should have got a hlg 240 48a, to run parallel at full wattage.

Just checked the hlg 240 2100 report and you should be able to
Push 2.4 amps, which will drive your panels to 118w each.

Thank you I will try this, didn't know that it made a difference to run in series

I must have told you the wrong drivers, I wired in series and am pulling 530 watts. Super stoked thank you so much!

I know it's 2100mAh I'll check tonight
