I’m interested in the final decision made on your builds. I built the gen 2 4x4 480 watt light. I’m looking to add onto this light for my next flower. Was thinking to add 6-8 more strips and add a hlg-240. Are the gen 3 strips worth the money? I can get the driver with the gen 2 strips for the price...

I’m looking to do something very similar, just unsure of the program code side of things.
Is there something do stir me to in order to learn that side.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Anyone that is using the light I’ve built have suggestions on the hanging height from the canopy when in flower?

What (K) strips are you running? I was planning to use 3500k and perhaps use 16 strips for better efficiency.

Any thoughts?

Thanks for the warm welcome and I appreciate in advance for all the advise I hope to receive here. Yeah arrow also includes the duty and taxes for us so we know the end total... Which strips to go with from arrow, Digi-Key or mousers? What’s the best out there available via those venders? I just wan...

The duties and taxes all depend on where the products are imported from. Don’t really have a budget, just looking to get the best bang for the buck and get a quality light. I feel that for Canadians to get a quality light it cost closer to $2 per watt. Looking for the expert advice on the correct pr...

Canada 🇨🇦 I want to build a light to flower a 4/4 tent. My brain is now mush with the amount of research I have put into it that I am now asking for help from you all. Would like to get everything via Digi-key or Mousers as they include all the taxes, exchange and import fees ( hate the unknown/hidd...
