Help verify my EB strip build (BXEB-L0280Z-35E1000-C-B3)

Strip light questions and discussions go here (Samsung, Bridgelux, Photo Boost, Growcraft, etc.)

Everything checks out, except wiring 5 in series. Bridgelux eb Gen 2's maximum voltage rating is 60v (datasheet page 4 note 3) so the maximum series wiring I would go with would be 3.
Is the same true for the 4' ones? I have 3 strips in series on a 75-150V, 500 mA driver and they are still alive. Should I be worried?

3 strips is fine, I was going to do 5.

The datasheet applies the same note to all the strips, so same rules should apply regardless of size 👍
