I watched Gromau5 read this thread live on his Instagram stream last night. Pretty hilarious stream. OMG really? That's awesome, I feel so honored that the Supreme LED'er saw a post on the ledgardener forums. Hope he had good things to say. Actually, nvm. Dude could straight insult me to my face an...

Anyone as excited about these as I am? Def gonna purchase a few when they drop, might need a few heatsinks though.

At first glance of your final two designs I thought 1.5A was pretty high to be running through a 2' strip temp. wise, but knowing there are 72 diodes per I don't think it would be a problem. Not sure though as I'm not familiar with the f-series strips (yet lol). Can't wait to see your finished produ...

Thx for the info! I am interested to know what's the max current to run the board without heatsink. If they are cheap enough to be run at low currents they could be an alternative to strips, why not? Many diodes @ low currents = Same result as with strips, just easier mounting without heatsinks. I ...

Never knew they made wagos that big, cool. Perhaps some terminal got nudged and no longer connected, really makes no sense why it would work inside a tent and not out... Unless the different kelvin strips run at a different voltage, it should not really matter in parallel. What is the total size of ...

Whoa, 33 strip build? Things gonna be a beast, I think you're gonna need a lot of 5 port wago's very soon haha... Also, LEDG had a vid somewhere that he said when jumping them from wago to wago use at least a 14 gauge solid core at least. All connectors should be able to handle 20amps, but thats a t...

@ Jolly Green Giant, yeah ik what you mean alibaba is def a tough place to navigate :lol: As far as them looking like photon phantoms, yeah similar but apparently there is a dude in Spain selling them under the name Heaven grow lights on ig. Perhaps Meiju is his mfg and I stumbled across it. They do...

@ Grower, dimensions: 2x 288pc 200W Bava board 3000K was 18" x 13" 240pc 110W (dimmable) Meiju 3000K board was 16" x 10" x 3" 128pc 65W Meiju 3000K board: 11.5" x 7.25" 288pc Meiju 3500K 110W board 12" x 7.25" all measurements including heatsink Don't have a laser thermometer but the Meiju 288pc 48V...

Hello, I'm new to the forums but been lurking for a while having caught the LED bug. I can say everything I know I've learned from either youtube (growmau5, LED gardener, greengenes, gml) or forums, so just a diy and not expert on anything lol. Really just here to learn and share about my favorite h...

I was told by the guys at Photon Phantom designs that small changes in voltage equal big changes in current, and may lead to thermal runaway thus burning the diodes out quicker. I initially inquired them because they say not to run two of their different boards in parallel because of that issue. If ...
