No idea on the fan with the led driver..
I originally planned to run the vesta's with double drivers, so I could just tune any spectrum between 2700-5000k. Finally I figured I will manage with 3 temperatures, 2700, 3850 (mix), and 5000k.
During my build I was planning to add 660nm diodes, but a user (livinglight) who tests lighting combos on his computer advised against it, saying that the 2700k 90cri is so balanced it does not need anything.
My first flowering test with 3850k is coming to a successful conclusion, and I have a cookies kush about 2 weeks into flower with the 2700k.
Initially I got the vestas because I heard about fabulous results in veg.
90cri is less efficient then 80cri though.
Here is the last TRP driver that has the old price: https://www.digikey.fi/product-detail/e ... ND/4332671
The rest of the models prices have jumped to 30-50e...

Look at the Effeciency part of the drivers datasheet. Some run more effecient on 220 than 110. Some run more effecient at 85%, some have the same Effeciency from 70-100%

The 75w TRP driver i mentioned is a little less efficient then the meanwell hlg line. It's about 88% while the hlg line is around 93%
