eb gen2 strips in series, 200v too much for the series of strips?
whats the voltage rating of the board and wire connector?
thank you

Take a look at the specs here:

Specifically look at figure 5, which tells you what voltage the strips need at what current. At 700mA, the strips run at 39volts. 5 strips in series will require (5x39=)195V. 210 is just fine, the strips will be happy photon canons.
Usually the wire connectors on the strips are rated for a max of 300V. The boards themselves have no maximum voltage since its excessive current that will make them pop. Excessive voltage passes through them harmlessly.
