Ok Jolly Green thanks, the 3 strips setup was what i had in mind, but i'm a bit confused.
Correct me if i'm wrong
HLG-40h-20 is a constant current driver 20v 40w 2000ma, so you meant a series wiring, right?
The eb 1 foot strip has max drive current 700ma with a voltage of about 20v and about 14w.
So 3 strips wiring in series need a 700ma(or less) and 60v driver.
With HLG-40h-20 i'm running each strip at 2000ma not 666ma as you said and only 20v output.
Am i doing something wrong?
hlg-40h-"Volts (20)" CV+CC driver.. you split the current at a constant voltage in parallel.
hlg-40h-"ma(500-700 I don't think they exist because I couldn't find one to link in this post why I used apc-25-500) is a CC driver. it adds the volts together while keeping a constant ma thru the whole series wiring.
you flopped them . the cv+cc still confuses me sometimes... how it's cv until it is over powering what ever it's supplying then it switches...
if you see really high amperage and low volt range it's CV+CC = parallel
if you see a really wide and bigger volt range but a normal amperage current we use its CC = series normally... you can wire parallel with a CC driver.. just the math gets more fun
Ah ok i did not understand it was a cc+cv driver because i've read cc driver on mouser... and of course my lack of knowledge on this subject
Many thanks again!
If anyone is trying to decide on the right case to use for such a build, I recommend the Antec P280. I used a P100 for my grow case after a week of researching the optimal configuration and price, but if I were to do it again I'd use the P280 for its extra height.
