Their lawyers probably nixed that lol. Don't want plebes electrocuting themselves and blaming the datasheet for bad instruction....
here's how I feel sometimes trying to sort it out
Is there a PPfd calculation in there someplace? I'm not seeing a spec.

Honestly, I'm pretty clueless about drivers just now.
You should also be able to order some directly from Kingbrite in the near future. The price from them is supposed to be about $75 according to the email I got.
~900ppfd over six square feet by my estimations using his numbers.
does that mean edge to edge 900ppfd over 6 square feet?
me too
You thinkin' what I'm thinkin'?
No, that's just a rough estimation of the average ppfd within that space. The edges would be lower, though as to how much I cannot say.
blinded by the light, heh? lol ... well I guess that jibes somewhat with the fairly common ballpark figure of 600W of LED replacing 1000W HPS over a 4'x4'No, that's just a rough estimation of the average ppfd within that space. The edges would be lower, though as to how much I cannot say.
A 1kw hps would produce a ppdf figure of about ~3300 in six square feet. So yeah, the plant under the plant would be dead before too long
I'm replacing 800W of HID, in my case 860W CDM, with 800W of COB LED and I'm expecting roughly double the PPfd. A different take on the same performance boost.
It probably will watt for watt......., its a good build, at over 17 PAR watts a sq ft.....Its a fuckload of light for 6 feet! Trees
Trees is right; the trellis panels mentioned above are 6' Tall.It probably will watt for watt......., its a good build, at over 17 PAR watts a sq ft.....Its a fuckload of light for 6 feet! Trees
I've been wondering about this, I could really just run, for example, two Vero 29s (36.8v) [or CXA/B 3070/3590s] and still have the full adjustability? Or would I have to avoid 100%; would it push those two chips to 144v/2 = 72v and kill them?? I don't mind 'wasting' some of the drivers capacity in the mean time (if its safe), it would allow me to upgrade or use for a 4x or 8x project later on.
100% is ok, but over 100% I have read that current gets cut lower.
Great, this really sounds like a great way to 'build into' my design, and not have to do single drivers. Allows me an upgrade path. V29s, here we go...until some top bin CXB3590s become more 'available' and a bit cheaper maybe.
If you plan to run 4 Vero 29 on that driver wait for another response as to if it will work well or not.
