Finally got one up and running without supplementation - so it will be hanging in the veg 5x5, 2 of them should be more than enough, to veg It doesn't really looks like 3500K to be honest - more like 4000K compared to 3000K QB's I have.

I used JB weld to attach heat sinks to the L channel, MX-2 with self tappers to attach strips to the heat sink.

One interesting thing that I noticed with this driver is that if you crank up both pots open it will draw 300 Watts. As of right now after 2 hrs heat sinks are barely warm with ambient of 70 degrees, so may be later on I'll crank it up all away up to 48 volts? ;)

My cable management sucks, but hey, as long as it works...

I noticed that this build is quite similar to what I wanted to build. Just finished building the second bar of 4 and maybe will get more if I like the output.
How is your grow running now? Will you bloom with that lamp too or just veg?
