Re: Help hacking a perfect sun COB / optic 6

If I had to guess, there's 12 led drivers, 2 fan power supplies? 1 driver for each of the 6 COBs and 1 driver for each of the diode banks... The voltage seems ok, 30 - 45v DC to run a 36v Cree chip.. But isnt 1200mA too much to run a single chip? Could there be 3 sets of 2 drivers in parallel? I've ...

Re: Help hacking a perfect sun COB / optic 6

Ok I couldn't help myself. Looks like they are all the same, it's hard to tell (for me) if there's separate drivers for the epistar diodes and COBs or if they drive each COB and block of diodes around it. But all drivers appear the same, 30 -45VDC output Constant current 1200mA I'm going to have to ...

Help hacking a perfect sun COB / optic 6

Does anybody know what chips I can drop into replace the old COBs?
I think they are cxa2520s run at 50w but I'm worried they are the very bottom bin.
If anyone knows off hand what I can change to get a bit of a better light I'd be extremely grateful.
