Hi Stu
I havent had time to be on here often, for end of day spread is important. I developed 730nm Buddies for this reason. https://growlightsaustralia.com/product/buddies/

One set of 730nm Buddies running for 10 minutes after lights out will do the job for you. If you are outside Australia then buy a driver locally. XLG25-24 is suitable to run 1-3 strings of Buddies but one is enough if its just for EOD

@TEKNIK

thank you but i have already purchased some epiled 3watt on star board and will be trying them when i get them wired up and will be using this https://uk.banggood.com/DC7V-35V-to-DC1 ... rehouse=CN as a constant current controller am thinking of using 5 to start with just as a test to see how it works will run them at 9.5v in a series configuration at about 500 mA (max 800 mA) can go up to 10 if needed but first need a heat sink before i try them in the chamber
