I have an active heat sink that I would like to use for a single cob fixture for a small grow chamber. I don't want to run the COB higher than 65 watts. What COB and driver combo would I need for this? I don't understand how to determine what wattage I will be getting. I'd like to stay on the cheap and get between 50 and 65 watts out of it.

Would a LPC-60-1050 drive a single‎ CLU048-1812C4-353M2K1 at at that wattage?

That cob has a forward voltage spec'd at 52v. The LPC has a constant current range from 9-48v. Probably not enough to run that one.

Thanks! Do you have any recommendations for making a single cob fixture?
