If you think that is a good argument here is another for you the luminus cxm22 is the same output as the citizen 1818 its a little more efficient and its only$19 per cob.I think they have a little more red in them at the same 3000k. I have both the 1818 and cxm22 in flower both are 3000k 80 cri...
It all depends on if you are going to run co2 or not. If you want to run co2 its best to seal the room and just vent the exhaust of the ac out of the room. You dont want fresh air in a room with co2 your controlling everything and exhausting co2 enriched air.
If you are not going to run co2...
First just because the temps are 65 doesnt meant you dont need an a/c each 1000w will raise the temp on average 20 degrees 4k btu of ac is needed per hood unless you are running them open then you will need 6k btu per hood.
Cobs and quantum boards are nice and yes a little pricey upfront but do...
I say they are double the cost when I am comparing them to citizen 1818
The 048-1825 best efficiency is 160W and can handle 5.75A the 048-1818 best efficiency is 150W and can handle 4.14A
The citizen 1825 in a 3x4 area 6 cobs 1.4A has a ppfd of 830 they are $40 a cob plus heatsink driver...
yes 48 cobs total the driver I would recommend is the elg 240 54 d2 drivers each driver would be 250 watts and you would have 2 cobs per driver. You can use the 058 but they are 2x the cost for the cob and heat sinks. The citizen 1818 is most efficient at 150w
The D2 also have built in dimming...
The L1 and L2 are power the green is ground its 240v you dont need to use 6 gauge wire to connect the power. If you are you are using a 20a breaker you dont need anything bigger than 12 gauge wire
#6 wire is for 50-70A http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/wire-gauges-d_419.html
What is the budget like for the built? I know you say your trying to cut costs but its going to be $6500-7500 to replace the gavitas with leds are you ready for that kind of upgrade? You will be building the fixtures to save the $100-150 each for preassembled fixtures.
I have a similar size...
You would put the 2 hot wires that are carrying the load you want to measure and clip the amp reader around them. One reason I suggested that one was because it is the clip style. All that is left is to give the unit power.
That is correct you have 2 options
option 1 get a killawatt from the UK or Australia with the conversion plugs but you will be limited to 15A
option 2 get https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01D8G9GPW/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A1T3LOAKNUUM9N you dont hav the 15A limit its 100A
Why exhaust the room if you are using an ac to cool it? You are just exhausting the cold air out. If you have a carbon filter and fan scrubbing the room and have an intake for 5 min every hour to refresh the co2 unless you want to get a tank and regulator and then just run a sealed room.
