LEDgardener

Ok I am going to go the Bridgelux EB Gen 2 route and build my frames out of 1x1 aluminum tubing. I think since being here in Canada, Digikey will be my best bet?

Here is where I am hoping you guys can help me out. I want to build 2 light I think to hang both with separate drivers and dimmable.
I would like to use this setup for both veg and flower so this is where I get confused on what would be best selection of strips to use, drivers, potentiometer, etc. I really don’t like Digikeys website.
Could you guys help with suggestions on what I should order? Again many thanks.

My budget is under 300.00 if possible.

Hey man, I'm trying to knock up my first DIY LED setup too.

I'm going to grow within a 3ft x 3ft footprint and so far I'm going with:

15 x BXEB-L0560Z-35E2000-C-B3‎ LED Strips
1 x Meanwell HLG-320H-20B LED Driver

The above components come to roughly $270 AUD, so that should be roughly $250 CAD.

You should have enough money left over to purchase:

1 x 20pack WAGO 222-415 terminal blocks
1 x Roll Thermal Adhesive Tape
1 x IP67 3 Pin Power connector for the Driver
1 x 100K Ohm Pot & resistor


How big is your grow area by the way?
