EB Gen 3 1120mm Build driver question
Posted: Sun Mar 22, 2020 4:09 pm
I'm looking to build somr EB Gen 3 1120mm 3500k full cycle light fixtures. I am dead set on these being the strips for my build, length and spectrum, and I will have 20 of them to work with. My real problem is finding the correct driver and the right price.
My plan as of right now is to create 5 fixtures of 4 strips that I can adjust independently in height and intensity for growing a variety of veggies. I found the
Inventronics EUK-150S560DT and it seems to match up, based on my limited understanding of electronics. I am a machinist, not an electrician, so please bluntly correct me here.
Here goes nothing:
Configuration - 4 x Strips in parallel connected to each driver
(150W) 37.5w per board (dimming to 30w)
(5600mA) 1400mA per board which matches the max rating of the gen 3 strips (running at 4200mA for 1050mA per board)
(14-39Vdc) close to the middle of the recommended driver selection voltages for the strips
Am I making any mistakes here? Is there a better way to do this? Do I need a special tool to set these drivers since they are programmable? Thanks so much for your help?
