90W available.
135W, and 260W kits waiting on drivers/ heatsinks. will have a better idea next week.
600W kit. 1-2 may be added. more will take 6-8 weeks. We may have a kit based on slate 4 soon.[/QUOTE]

I am in line for a 260w kit or the parts to diy build, I hope anyway.
I sent a couple emails wanting to pre order. If that's possible.

difference between the 260 and the 250

It is same driver. 240H and boards go in series. only difference is that 250w heataink is not as good at cooling as the 260w kit

You won't be able to add a 3rd board on the 250W kit. Because boards are in series on that driver.

We have been thinking about a 350w kit with 320h 4 boards on slate 4.

Thank you! Both you and Stephen have been great. Looking forward to the lights and retiring the HPS.

Edit: I went back to read the response from stephen and he did in fact say same driver just named different. My apologies for not accurately referencing the response. bongsmilie

Cards get charged on pre orders right away. Don't have an exact availability date yet ans lot of people don't like to wait more than 2 weeks. Could be 2-3 weeks. We are working with growers lights to stock 260w kit.

You guys have done a great job with the QB's. I hope you're making good profit because you deserve it.

Reading through pages (didn't read every page) it seems like using a COB fixture would technically be better. However I have read some people prefer QB's over COBs. I guess it's a preference thing. But I'm wondering how would it work if I mixed it up with a COB fixture and a QB in my tent? Would that make sense?

Oh yes, a 350 kit in a square metre with 4 dwc plants, very efficient maximum yield per watt/plant.

I'm using a 320h-2800 on two boards in a 3x3. I have only run the qb's to 150 weach. It's a lot of light in that space.

I'm not sure I need 4 boards, The distribution is good. It isn't a very big space. I suppose if you wanted to up it to a 4x4 it would need 4 boards.

At the end of the build when everything is up and running I will post all the pictures from beginning to end and also go over some of the build! I was going to create a cover and a case and do everything all in closed but decided for my light and it's not going out to anybody else that I'm going to keep all the drivers and electronic separate outside of the grow that way my whole entire light is only 1/2 inch thick...

Thanks brother ... I'll definitely be biggin you when it comes to wiring my monos hah ... got the recommended RS150-24 by growmau5 with 24V output pwr supply and now confused as to how he wired the 15x deep reds in there and got 30w oit of them (thinking he used 2x LDDs? Then both drivers on one channel?)... anyway will figure it out later when all the parts are here hah ... best of luck with the build bro its going to be sexy
