So those far reds are 1.9-2.1 fv so you could fit quite a few on even a cheap 120-c700. Can you not run more than 700? And is my math right? You could do do like 20 of those 3 pcbs on a 120-c700?
once I get my bars up & guzrl under them that's the next project
i sure likey them pcb tri star solderless that Cutter has saves a huge hassle foookin with tiny diodes

@welight so their 1.9-2.1 on single chips forward voltage so the 3solderless version would be 5.7-6.3? Is that right? Using any of the drivers we use for Iarger get cobs like cxbs would be just too much to run the only 5-15 3 pcbs Wed need in most spaces. What's a suitable constant current driver for these?

@Fastslappy Or do you think that the 3 pcbs you posted earlier would be the best? I had no idea cutter offered THAT many different far red leds. There are like 20 different versions! It's crazy. It makes me wanna buy one of all of them and use ones that have the same amperage in series. Or do these all need to be run in parralel? It says use resistors if in series unlike cxbs.

I have a couple of options, the
3 up solderless are 3 individually addressable leds(IAD), so each led is powered at 1.9-2.1 or you could then wire(wiring loom) into series or parallel, we also have a 4 up 24mm(not solderless) but can also be IAD or series or parallel. Sorry about so many options, but a lot of these boards are used by the torchys out there who run from batteries, these can all be mounted with Deep reds, Far Reds or we can build custom spectrums for you, red/blue/violet etc. and of course I would be happy if your bought one of everything:lol:
Cheers

Yeah I posted a link to the 4 chip one you're referring to I think. So no resistors are needed for series? You'd just go positive in, hook a little "U" shaped wire from negative to pos/negative to pos, and a negative line out?also, being that small forward voltage, to run them at 700-1000 MA for the most output as I'd not be running them long AT ALL, what's a suitable driver?

Hey Mark, @cutter , welight
I know you can do kits of popular LEDs that we here use as the 3590 kits
any chance that you could put together a far red kit with these solderless pcb's ?
a kit as in a suitable driver/drivers that would run a 'X' amount of far reds that we could scale up or down ?
the far reds we use at the end of flower for a short period 15 minutes at the end of a day cycle .
we should move this conversation to the Far Red Thread https://www.rollitup.org/t/the-far-red-thread.867665/page-16
there are very knowledgeable Far Red enthusiasts on that thread !
