DIY - LED Grow Light

[BengBong]

So you are going to use just one LED of each type? All of these LEDs consume 1A or a little bit more and if you have 10 of them that means that your PSU should be able to deliver a little bit more than it is rated for (10A). I suggest you use two of these PSUs. First one could power 9 LEDs and the other one the remaining LED and additional 8 LEDs. I suggest you use additional 6 x 660nm, 1 x 420nm and 1 x 460nm LEDs.

Okay, so spectrum in that ratio? Okay i will buy another psu, and then some 660nm chips.

Will this power supply work then?

For 18 10W LEDs this PSU should be OK.
