The center lamp is a Vero 29 which I have under driven using 900 milliamps. This results in a 37 Watt...

    ARE WE STILL BUILDING COB ENGINES?

    Hello, long time no chat! D1 checking in to see if the Cree cxa/cxb on a arctic 11 heatsink still hit the spot. Drivers used previously were all meanwell 24~40ish volt at 1500ma. This was a 35 to 48 watt spot for about a 1.5 sq. I am now running two Gorilla tents, 2x4,4x4 with a Mars SP300 in...

    Slapped 8 cxb 2540 3000k 90cri cobs to a 3\8" wthick 16"x16" aluminum plate with a million my wattstapped holes all over it. This was a chunk of metal I acquired from a homeless person who was pushing a grocery cart full of metal to the metal scrapping yard, down the street. I have bought...

    LM301H vs LM301H-EVO

    ...LED manufacturers may say they have a horticultural chipset however it is largely developed for the non-cannabis horticultural market. Same as CXB and other COBs - general lighting is and will always be the focus due to market size. Interesting to note - when we were working with Citizen on...

    Jesus christ... has anyone reliably solved the issues of weak growth in early veg under LED? What's the answer????

    ...light in veg. repotted, put in the tent on 22th oct., slightly stressed allready, had been for too long in the vegbox and got too close to the cxb cobs, been in tiny starter pots also. they basically couldnt stand much more then this. this is from 19th nov., 29 days later. quite some...

    Lighting Decisions are haaaard.

    I've seen the pro 9 shit cree has been coming out with, been wondering if it'll be any good for growing, they're actually cheaper than normal cxb 3590 last time I checked. I went with cmu2287 my last cob purchase, right before the pro 9 versions came out. These 95+ cri cobs work great.

    Lighting Decisions are haaaard.

    ...but using the same calculator for all problems, so error should cancel out and give us a relatively good idea of what we're looking at. One CXB3590 PRO9 @4000k @CRI90 will emit something in the neighborhood of 13,375lm at full power. In my design, I’m looking at 60deg. lenses. I'll reduce the...

    DiY LEDs - How to Power Them

    2 parallel strings, each with 3 fseries strips in series would fit pretty well. 30ish watts per strip. https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/samsung-semiconductor-inc/SI-B8U521560WW/6624006

    what is the most efficient DIY LED build today?

    Chilled puts those crees in a lightsphere and the real numbers are quite a bite lower. All those numbers are from the spreadsheets that where based on datasheets. Which werent completely correct. The test reports are on on Chilleds webpage. And Cobkits here on the forum ran a lot of tests in his...

    DiY LEDs - How to Power Them

    I have a question for the experts here. i have some meanwell hlg 185-c1400b drivers from my old 4 cob cxb 3590 lights that i am not using now. what would be the best flowering leds that can use these drivers? I prefer better spread than light intensity since i do vertical scrog. I have not...

    what is the most efficient DIY LED build today?

    It seems like the best commercial lights you can get nowdays perform the same as the DIY stuff we built @ 2015-2016 Cree CXB 3590 at 700ma was producing 64% efficiency or 2.95 umol/j with cooler Kelvin temps (good for veg) and high bin you could get even higher efficiency
