Hello There, I'm new to growing and I have bought kingbrite 250w 3000k 660nm quantum board with a HLG 240H 48AB driver .
I wanted to know if i could add another board?
could i add anything to help me with coverage?
Also I have heard you can adjust the driver? Would the driver need adjusting or will it be all set from the factory?

It's pulling 230ish watts from the wall at the moment. If anyone can maybe help I would be very grateful. I have just found this forum and it looks like it will provide answers I'm looking for . Thanks

The driver is already nearly maxed out. You can add another board in parallel but that will mean they'll split the current and get 115w each.
To improve coverage with midpower diodes, just add more diodes. (And drivers to power them)


This video explains dimming, A/B drivers combine the 2 methods. Watching this video series will help understand how it works, which is required for DIY solutions.
