So I have been thinking about adding some color to my cob set up since the day I finished building it. For a little background info I have a 10 cxb3590 3500k set up. Its a 3-4-3 formation in a 36in by 36in frame in a 4x4 tent. I am planning on doing 4 bars of monos. I have about 9.75in between the cob bars to work with.
2 bars of 15 monos split between 3 colors. 5 cree xpe red-orange, 5 cree xpe reds and 5 cree xpe photo reds per bar all running at .5A.
The other two bars are going to be flower initiators with 4 cree xpe per bar running at .5A
I was wondering if adding the 2 color bars is worth it and if any of these heats sink profiles would be enough for what I plan on doing. These are what I am considering for the color bars; http://www.heatsinkusa.com/2-079-wide-extruded-aluminum-heatsink/ , http://www.heatsinkusa.com/2-425-wide-extruded-aluminum-heatsink/ , http://www.heatsinkusa.com/1-813-wide-extruded-aluminum-heatsink/ any advice on if these will work and what one would be best/sufficient would be really helpful. all of these at 36in
Then for the flower initiator I was thinking about http://www.heatsinkusa.com/1-000-wide-extruded-aluminum-heatsink/ . I know you can use aluminum tubing for this but a 36in length of this is only like 5 bucks and I can easily drive to heatinkusa, like super close to me.
