    Ohms Law ??? Can 62vdc become 145vdc ???

    I have a lpc 150-2450(31~62vdc) if ran parallel string of 4 lines @ 612.5 ma. Do you get 245vdc?

    What to do with lpc150-2450 (31~62vdc)?

    Besides being cheap and 220, if I ran it parallel, 612ma 4 lines. Wouldn't my vdc increase to 243vdc??? Isn't that just following ohms law? And I know the simple answer, just blast a single cob. I thought I was ordering a 1400 not a 2450, to much blue dawg.
