For people from Australia trying to source meanwell hlg or elg drivers. I found 2 sights while helping a fellow forum member out. Here is the list of providers from the meanwell site(these drivers are inspected and stamped to be able to run in Australia.)

Two sites I found that have a website and a good selection. Some of the others off that list you might be able to call or email for sourcing.

Here's the two I found

Does anyone know a supplier for the Bridgelux EB Gen 2 4000K in 560mm (BXEB-L0560Z-40E2000-C-B3), with delivery to Europe?

Digikey doesn't stock those anymore, because of "too few orders", which doesn't make a ton of sense to me, as they are stocking other color specs from Bridgelux and who in the world would order 200x?
Arrow and the like are asking Samsung-like prices for those and a ridiculous shipping fee.

I waited for the EB2 for Europe for a long time. I got so bored I was thinking of ordering some gen 1s just to get started.

Finally I heard about vestas, and felt they are the natural progression from Bridgelux. Since they are 90cri, they are naturally a little lower lumen, but actually their efficiency is just as good as EB2, and you get a lot more diodes for the price. If you run them both channels together at 3850k you get extra efficiency for running half softer.

I also noticed that digikey, arrow electronics and mouser electronics all have select language/country on there sites.. so they all have European/worldwide warehouses to ship from 😁
Wtf!! I ordered from digikey and ended up have to pay import charges since they shipped from U.S and A. To europe.

Anyone know where to get heatsink able to cool a vero 29 cob 50.7v voltage and running on 1750mA, so lets say able to cool a chip running 90 w. Shipped to sweden.

Also very happy for recomendations about where to order stuff and having it sent to SWEDEN at low costs. We have a lot of taxes and fees here. The best would be ordering from inside EU.

Or iil just go with active cooling 🤔
