Thanks again. You already did a lot for me. Now i have to study and do the math for my self. I'm gonna read again every post on parallel wiring and learn.

Cree XPE 660nm are not all that efficient especially when running at high current. Its hardly worth using them over the bridgelux CRI90 for the extra cost and inconvenience. Cree XPG3 is much better but alot more expensive. You could make 660nm Buddies work if you ran 2 strings in parallel at 1050m...

Wow thanks! I did not know about xpe..ok..now the situation is clear. I'm gonna contact avnet for the waiting times of the 90cri. When the high output will come out..they'll be my new veg room lights. Thanks again.

Searched yesterday for the high output (just a try but nothing) and for the 90cri slim 3000k (6 weeks waiting on Avnet, no avalaibility on Arrow and 180 pieces order from Digikey). I'm not surrending.

Hi, i need to build a 6 bridgelux strips 3500k 80cri fixtures, 119cm, for my 2*4 bloom box. I'm gonna add some 660. My question is, could a Hlg 320 1050a drive the strips in series? I don't care about the high voltage, i'm gonna take precautions. I just would to know if the strips will be ok in thi...

Hi! I'm about to build a gen3 slim set up..but..wait a minute..or a month..anybody knows where the gen3 high output will be commercialized? The datasheet is promising, i'm waiting for the prices. I searched all over the internet but nothing..and Bridgelux never responded a single email. Bridgelux h...

Some calculations; 1190mm BXEB Gen 3 Strips; 700 mA - 1700 mA rated @ 38.2 - 41.5 Vf (Forward Volts DC) 42 Vf * 6 strips = 252 Vdc 252 Vdc * 1.05 Amps (1050 mA) = 264.6 Watts HLG-320H-1050C-A 152 - 305 Vdc Range Required PPFD 700 PPFD * 0.8 Sq m (m2) = 560 PPF 6 strips * 6972 Lm (4980 Lm * 1.4 @ 10...

Hi!What do you think about this setup, i have the necessity to run 4 qb288 from 1400 to 1750 ma. I found this driver: https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/delta-electronics/USCO-320210GA/1145-USCO-320210GA-ND/10312991 Let's say 50v per board, 200 V...but i'm no electrician.. Is it a good choice...
