Breaking Brix: Buck's DIYs

Good price $21 too, I put 5 in my cart, I gotta get some pico harnesses also, I use the harnesses to connect my chips.

Those harnesses are only good for. Like 50v.. I ordered some as well, but i cant use them as im pushing way to much voltage.. If your going to use a constant voltage driver they would be ok, but not in series.. I just soldered them.. They are designed to be used as a single cob application...

I may also grab a few and try them out, I am still 19 chips short of 32 any way. Wasn't sure what a good choice would be but judging by that peak it's right what I'm looking for.

I love the 2700/90's.. Ive seen more vertical growth in the past 10 days under them, than the 2-3 weeks prior without them.. U can definitely see the difference..

They've been running fine. A tech at digikey told me the are good for my amperage, and the insulation will handle 179v.
 
Jumping on buckshot. I want to build some Veros as well. I will start out though by building an 8 sunboard 600 watt light for a 4x4 with Cree xpe reds to hit that 660nm where whites are a little lacking. Looking forward to the show!

Lol. Ya that's what I thought.
The LP from Alaska called me and said someone told him...and get this " he needs 1500ppfd and the room should be 89 degrees with LED COB"
I was like whaaaaaa?

Yeah 1500 is a waste of efficiency. But I would happily run 84 degrees with 1200ppfd and 1100 ppm Co2

That's a little high, and be hard on efficiency with that many chips. My temps got up in high 80's last week, plants seemed to like it, but I dialed it down to 600ppfd.

I had to google the sun boards, I thought they were like the new chill led and quantum boards. Do they have the new bin, S6. Those probably are about the most efficient light out. They throw some serious light out from the vids been watching. I have some on preorder from chill, my dads wanting to try them out.
