Ok then would I be better off with a 700ma driver or a 1050ma driver?

For The 1212's I'd Go With A 1400 mA. You can Run 4 1212 On A Hlg 185-1400 And You Will Rock 47.5 Watts A Cob Which Imho Is the Sweet Spot For The 1212's

wow, quite a bit of action on the other side of mountains huh cobby? crazy

That's a beautiful valley Orville is very nice

I was looking at the hlg 185h c700 or c1050 or c1400

 

[apollo4201982]

The more I read and ask questions the more I keep changing the plan lol

 

[apollo4201982]

I was looking at the hlg 185h c700 or c1050 or c1400

Wouldn't it be more like 62watts a cob? The driver information says 250 watts

I'm Claiming Stoner Moment.The 185 Is What I Use for 4 1212 the 240 Can Handel 5 1212's

That makes more sense, thanks bro

So when dividing the volts it comes up 3.97999 cobs for the 1400ma driver. Is that enough to run 4 cobs?

Yes If The Picture Loader Worked I Would Show Your Pictures Of Mine Ok I Didn't See The Dot. I'm Assuming Its 39.7. Yea Well If You Follow The Math The Hlg 240- 1750 Ma Should Run Them About 63 Watts. However The Voltage Overload Protection Kicks In And Limits The Current To 210 Watts Or 52,5 Watts Per Cob.

 

[apollo4201982]

Last stupid question....do I really need the reflectors?

 

[visajoe1]

It most definitely is. Im referring to the 200k people that got evacuated tho

Last stupid question....do I really need the reflectors?

First The Only Stupid Question Is The One Not Asked. Second I Prefer the Kahtod 1825 Silicon Lens However The Majority Of My Lamps Has Reflectors on Them. Some Ppl Don't Like Them However I Do. I Don't Think Your Veg Light Needs Them But I Would Put Them On My Flowering Lamp

I ment that there is room in the hlg 185h c1400a driver(143 volts) to drive 3.97999 cobs

 

[apollo4201982]

So if the cobs very in voltage used it should run 4 cobs

Oic Said The Blind Men. The Hlg 185-1400 Will Run 4 1212 AT 36.5 Volts. Yes Your Maxing Out The Driver But They Will Run

What's the best place to buy drivers? I'm looking on jameco now.

 

[CobKits]

CobKits is the best place to buy drivers, or maybe im biased cause of the thread.

While I agree you have a badass site with great prices you don't have the drivers I'm looking for.

i can generally get anything so email me and i can look into it, if not no worries, i stock them more for convenience than profit so feel free to shop around
