Re: TCI Strips build [EU]

Weird, I'm also on linux (Chromium running on Arch) and it shows up just fine. Imgur isn't using flash but maybe you have javascript disabled? Does the link work for you? Anyway, I got the tape today and mounted everything on my frame. Wiring looks like a mess for now as I just wanted to try it out....

Re: TCI Strips build [EU]

I think there was a problem uploading Refresh the page again and it should work, it's a weird bug with the forum preview or imgur. That’s probably how I’d do it. Not to say that that’s the right way though :lol: Seems to work fine, nothing is on fire yet :roll: I'm waiting on the heat transfer tape...

TCI Strips build [EU]

I'd like someone to just double check my wiring, I think it should be alright but just wanted to make sure since I haven't done anything like this in a long time. I know running 5 drivers is probably not the most efficient but they were included with the LEDs and I figured I will run it like this to...

Re: (F series -canceled) Vesta build with side lighting

Nice build fellow scandinavian! I've been thinking of doing a 2x2m setup for tomato/chili indoors. How many strips do you think I would need? Navigating what drivers and strips to get is a bit confusing, always ends up not ordering because I don't know what to get :oops: Is DigiKey the best place to...

Re: Soldering iron

I've been looking at the TS100 Digital soldering iron, seems like it's a favourite of many people. But I've got an old Weller that is built like a tank and will probably last forever so I can't really justify buying a new one.

Re: Re-purposing server power supplies

Do you guys think this would work fine with a regular ATX PSU? I'd guess the 12V rails aren't that exact but I'm wondering if it's enough to work with the tolerance on LED-strips like the Samsung SI-B8T05128HUS
