I have been experimenting with Samsung diodes for a while and mixing various light spectrum over the last couple years.

I decided to design and have manufactured a 200w two channel pcb with 192 diodes on each channel for a total of 384 diodes total.

The board works great.

How do you make it?

I have the boards made by my manufacturer in China Shenzhen Hansion. I designed the board did the gerber files, and sent the work off to China for production..
thanks for asking

Hey Avid!

Thanks so much for sharing. I'd love to see some more pics of the light; especially with it off, so we can have a good look at the board. That's super cool that you put in the effort to actually design and have these built for you. Really cool. ]

How long did it take, once you had your files complete, to have the light in your hands? How many did you end up having produced?

Ptoduction took two weeks shipping and delivery took five days from Shenzehn China.
The board uses 384 diodes 192 per channel one channel is 5000k and the second channel is 3000k.
The minimum number of diodes you can buy is a reel with 2500 diodes.
My design uses two reels for a total of 13 boards. I use them in flower and veg and offer them to others at cost like a CO-OP no profits.
A few friends have ordered a lot of 13 they will use themself or do the same co-op in Europe.
Because the boards use a c1050b driver they are very energy efficient.
Here is pic of a 400w fixture I built and use.

I'd love to get in touch with anybody you're in contact with in Europe regarding such a shared-costs production!

(I love the project, the design, the build, and the generosity behind it all. Kudos!)

Hey Vega... I mean hey Avidlerner!
As I already said, nice job! What are the dimensions?
I inquired a producer from alibaba too but I can't afford the moq of 50-100pcs (well I don't know what to do with the 40 pcb remaining lol). I thought I can share some locally to introduce ppl to this technology since they don't know anything except SE hps.

I like these projects

I will have to see what i can do. If you go to riu and I have a thread there where folks get together for the same purpose.

I am like others I wanted something different, so I designed it and wo0rked with folks to get it done. If you have interest let me know. I can get you some boards, or you can order a lot yourself. I still have a few boards left from the last CO-OP order. When the order for a lot of 13 is short I make up the difference in cash and place the order and hold he extra boards as people ask for them. Price is cheap $60 for a 200w board S&H for US is $20 for EU $22 Int First class. S&H no change multiple boards, the more the better.

If you DM me I can give you a link to my Blog page with Buy Now Paypal buttons for 1,2,or 4 boards US shipping.

How much was the cost plus shipping for all3 boards. what is length and width of each board. With new lm301h, would the same design work, Also would they make specific pho re and photo blue like Cree xpg3, and some high efficiency 730 and uv stuff. I realize the specialty boards might require a co op buy to buy whole rolls. Just wondering if you have been tinkering with these newer products, HOw long and wide are your two channel boards? Thanks, great info
