Hi.
I'm new to led light grow so my question will probably be a bit on a noob side but ... it is what it is :D :D

I have HLG-320H-C1400A and would like to pair with him 10 let's say https://www.digikey.si/products/en?KeyW ... 8U2N80LAWW . Question. How many Led strips can be put together in series safely?

Thank you

Well that driver outputs up to 229v, and the strips use ~23v at 1400ma...maybe a touch less, would have to measure in real life vs the data sheet.

229/23= 9.95 boards. Probably could squeeze all 10 on there and will drop some voltage as it warms slightly and fit. Just need to double check with a multimeter its getting the full current and the driver is not compensating. Basic watt meter should give you a basic idea.

9 boards no questions...probably get the full 10.
