My COB cool tube works pretty well if you've got an odd size space to work with. Decent penetration (using citizen Citiled cluo38's) I usually drive these @1050ma using HLG drivers.
In this case 6 x cluo381206's driven by a meanwell HLG240HC1050B driver. Giving like 226.8w before factoring in...
240w (16 of the 560mm strips in series) on a meanwell xlg240 driver comes in at under £100 on digikey UK.
Those maths could get him to 1000w ish for his $500 (if prices are as good on digikey Where you are)
Although not all the way it's a good start that could be upgraded afterwards and stick...
The bridge is for my lad to feed the fish mate and yeah will be a few koi think I forgot to say. Got some railway sleepers being dropped on Monday. Should be lining it after that. Hopefully get it right while the weather is nice

Did you mean Google the film or OG bro lol. Had a Bev or 6 today after digging my pond. Even popcorn bud was on the shovel bless him
