How many f series and h series strips can I wire in series?

Strip light questions and discussions go here (Samsung, Bridgelux, Photo Boost, Growcraft, etc.)

So based on my last post it has come to my attention that for the eb gen2 strips there is a max amount of strips you can run in series (max voltage for each board is 60v). I built 2 other lights, one is 5 strips of the samsung lth282 in series run by 500ma cc driver. The other is 3 strips of the f series 2' strips. The outside strips are the double row, this inside strip is a single row. That light is being run at 1400ma cc driver. I've looked at the data sheets for each strip series and cant find anything about max strip voltage, similar to what's on the EB gen2 data sheet. Am I slowly ruining my other lights? Thanks in advance!

Its usually 300V, due to the connector, which is not allways obvious in the datasheet. I looked aswell. I think you can get around it by soldering connections for your self. But the real question why do you want to go up to 300V of dc when these builds are completely feasible at under 48V which means litterally no chance to kill yourself? 300V is no shit...
