Thanks both for your input. I think it's better to have more drivers than 1 big one. I don't like Murphy and his law. :) I have to read more about these Quantum Boards. Is this is the newest in LED lighting? Do they have a better light spectrum or are they more efficient? Do you think that 16 COB's ...
