Thanks to all the information posted on this forum I have completed my first build.

The light incorporates 16 SL-B8V3N80LAWW strips and 2 HLG-320H-C1400B drivers.
Running at around 500 watts.

Time to grow some hot peppers!

Thank you to those who replied to my questions here.
I'm quite happy with the build.

The Luminator 3000! That's awesome.
I love the cutting board idea.

How do these strips compare to the PLC photo boost strips? It looks like they are about half the cost of the PLC strips. What are the key differences?

I'm not sure but think that the photoboost strips have some red in them.
None were available when i did this build or I would have used them.

These strips have been working just fine though. Growth has been outstanding.
