What do you think of powering 4x 3070s with the driver you're using?

What are your plans with the 6500K?

Still thinking if I'm going to add 2 6500k to 6 3500

Or even just 4 on a panel just for veg

Is there a stretching issue or something you are hoping to combat with the 6500k?
It's nice to see someone like you stepping up and actually putting all these different cobs into action.
Hopefully you share some real world REALSTYLES feedback on how the different spectrums actually perform in your tents

Running great and I sold 2 to my friend and he wants more soon lol. No problems what so ever plus I'm running them at 350ma instead of 700ma. I can't wait until winter so I can turn them all the way up. Where I live it get over 100F

It's implied they are running low current because of heat. Hence the winter/100F thing part...PLUS IT'S MEGA EFFICIENT!!!111one

Kingbrite ship to Europe. Or Mouser but they're way overpriced.

I honestly don't get the whole dimming thing aside from maybe dialing it back for young plants in veg. I know the heat issue, but why would you want to give your plants less light intensity rather than manage the additional heat load?

He probably doesn't want to run AC. I personally can't run AC in my room so dimming is nice to have in the summer months once the temps start rising.

But are you not greatly compromising your yield potential?

With the nutrient line you are running, do you know approx cost for nutes on a run like that?

Cyco Platinum Series http://cycoflower.com I use the Pro Advanced feeding Calculator http://cycoflower.com/usa/feedcharts-nutrientcalculators/#cyco-popup-2615 and it ran me about $1100 off of ebay http://stores.ebay.com/milehighwholesaleinc/_i.html?_fsub=6702996015 but I'll be able to do several runs from what I bought.
