LED light panel

Kassidy · #1 11-30-2007, 09:16 AM

Ok i have secured about 500 super bright LEDs, i work for an electrical engineering company so i have access to all the appropriate supply's and components. I was wondering if anybody has tried to build one of these, if they had a schematic that they used. Has anybody used one of those LEDs panels for growing?? Well i will post more when i start making it, im gonna have to machine some type of enclosure for them too.

Woooohoooo hold on I will find a link, there's a beaut on here. What wavelengths are the LED's?

This is it, it has some great links in it. Let me know how you get along

When I come into some money next year I am going to experiemnt myself

i like this one better. just make sure to make a cool design with the different colored lights. rows of blue and red are boring. be creative. Small Trial Led Garden

thanks for the links! Im not sure of about the specs of the LEDs(i just told my boss to get me the brightest ones he could get preferably red, blue, orange, and white) i will get all of the info when i go to the office. im gonna do some more research before i start making anything, I will post more about it tomorrow, when i have the info.

Hey Kassidy, check out HomeGrownLights.com. 14 watt, 6 x 4.75 panel, 272 lights, not overclocked, 3 red per one blue. Kit ready to plug in if you are buying 11 or more is $30.00. Covers 1 sq. ft. Coverage 25 watts Led = 100 watts of hid. Indica 44 posted a link to an independant test site in my Grow room Setup thread on like page 16 so you don't have to read the whole thread. Results are posted. Best I have seen. VV

so i have decided to wait on this project, i was talking to the head engineer at my work today, and he was telling me how right now LEDs are advancing more and more everyday. Not only that but the are able to make a huge range of colors, a wide range of heat, a wide range of how bright they can be, ect.... not only that but are hundred of types of LEDs. i think most of us here have been looking at those superbright little round bullet LEDs, but i was looking in an application design mag today and found out that those probably arent the best to use, there are this little square LEDs that you can fit more into a smaller space then if you used the bullet LEDS. also i was reading about how engineers are finding new color ranges by lining up certin color LEDs with other color LEDs. So there is still much research to do. I am very intrested in do this though.
