CobKits, been a year since I lurked here. I'm only a part timer 1/2 year due to heat. Great to see you plugging along, your site is much improved. Guess I'll be sending you some more cash. Well Done.

nice

Works on my Note 4

Sometimes you must be spoonfed fish before you become a fisherman. So the debate continues of the same old questions, it is a good thing every old question reanswered is passing knowledge down the pipe.

Sorry my mistake. That what I get for driving at night and getting my copilot to text. The amperage being put out by driver is 1 amp. it is split among three 1212s. Just read amperage on single COB it was .3335. So 35V COB at .333MA is putting out 11.6 Watts? Good thing just Veging in there. I...

Using your lever terminals I get 1 amp off the hot lead going into terminal. Current of 1 amp feeds 3 cobs. They are in a 1.7 sqft cabinet. Using RIU calculator 3 @ 1 amp provides enough power. Is that per Cob or total?

Dumb question of the day. Me Sorry. In a parallel setup using a H185. It is giving 35 v across all Cobs. My Amp reading at terminal intake is 1 amp. Does that mean each Cob is getting 333Ma or is each getting the full 1amp? I apologize for my ignorance.

With all the info and helpful members it's hard to understand why you wouldn't DIY.

So in parallel a COB burns out and Current goes up to the rest? For example want to run a group at 1 amp fuse each one at 2 amps?

Thanks CobKits another satisfied customer. Cabinet up and running AK48 mothers sunbathing now. Some crazy reason cant get an Amp reading tried positive side, negative side every which way meter must be toast. Got no idea how hard actually running but dialed it down to a bump above minimum on...

That's the water buffalo/fatgirl hybrid

Jacks 20 20 20 for veg and 10 30 20 for flower. I use RO water so it gets a dose of Cal Mag Plus. Everything gets half dose Superthrive until flowering.

Agree that reading is essential for these builds. Although questions asked in this thread serve as an open custom service conversation. It helps when others can read previous answers. Maybe a FAQ tacked as first post would help.

I got you. this stuff I got from Steves is a one part silver infused adhesive. Used it on three watt stars no sweat made assembly a snap. Guess Gorilla glue is out. :) I saw a vid on Youtube from Green whatever for attaching COBs direct but didn't like the Kapton tape thing.

I am set for BJBs including grease Mr. Cob sells. I have a tube of the one part adhesive I bought from Steve's still in the toolbox. Got to love LED forum 5 minutes and two polar opposite answers.

Sometimes reading to much leads to confusion and second guessing for Newbs. I got a 1.6 sq.ft. cabinet with Mylar lined walls. Going to run three 1212s on a 10 inch profile passive sink using a Meanwell 185 @ 1.05A. Going to grow continuous popsickles. According to calculator i'll get around...

Where can I find out more about this Hempy method. Im a perpetual grow lollipop guy in a small cabinet. Been using Fiji water 1 Liter water bottles they are awesome for Cab grows.

Thanks for reply. It is clear now. Been scratching my head for a week. I'm not the brightest LED on the string. LOL. Budget wise parallel wins hands down.

Ive never built one in parallel. I could do it but thought that puts the LEDs at risk if one burns out. Im old school started with 3 watt Osrams and a hundred solder joints per light. Hes the expert and Im no engineer. Appears tech has blown by me. My last DIY light lasted 4 years. OK back on...
