Samsung Q series - characteristics.

[PurpleGunRack]

The H influx do look interesting. A little disappointing efficacy given the LM301B diodes but I guess they're using cheaper bins?

''They'' (Samsung) use their own top bin diodes.

The efficacy is only supassed by the Q-series because of they run cooler, I think you might have been mislead by salesmen copying the specs on the LM301B diode to their PCB

Yeah I was comparing it to Q series and the specs for the diode itself

[PurpleGunRack]

Yeah, Q-series is top dog, but expensive and same PCB design as the F-series (bendy plastic PCBs with indents for mounting)

The H inFlux are nice aluminium PCBs with holes for mounting, and around 15% cheaper per diode compared to Q-series, and you get a lot more intensity and potential than you get with the Q-series.

That would mean better potential for delivering heat to the heatsinks? I wonder if aluminum channels can do the trick or if purposemade heatsinks need to be employed.

[unkle_psycho]

Better potential with or without heatsinks.

Level of heatsink needed is determined by how hard you run them, and how much you are ready to pay for cooling. (cooler is a little more efficient)
