Re: Atreum strips preview

Re: Need help with a diy strip light.

Ok they told me the screws on the side allow to put a L shaped aluminum on them and thats how I would be able to mount them on the 80/20. Im not sure if its the middle hole at the top or the two on the bottom. Either way all I need is the driver part.
So which driver option should I go with Jolly?

Re: Need help with a diy strip light.

Hey jolly, you helped me with my first build thanks. Yes I contacted them and they sent me a photo of the back Saber.jpg It does not look compatible with an 80/20 extrusion.

Re: DIY HLG V2 build (Im a noob).

I bought the angle aluminium from a local shop.. pretty much same price as online metals or other online suppliers... yes running roughly 120 w each ( on the -c2100 ) it was a little hot for the slate 1's... if you have slate 2's ( the big fin black/clear ones) your fine.. they max out around 150 i...

I've loved it ever since..( minus the substrate.. old one was too bulky for me.) my build and upgrade buried on page 8...
