Hey Guys, I'm looking at building a diy 304 board setup from Meijiu, for my 4x4 tent, I will be using 4x panels with 2x meanwell 240's but I'm not sure if I would be best off using 4 individual heatsinks or 2 dual heatsinks, for me 2x panels of 2 boards just seem easier and less to manage but at the end of the day, if one layout would be better than the other in terms of performance, I would prefer to got that way. I just drew up a quick diagram of what I'm trying to explain, common sense tells me the 4 individual boards would be better in terms of spreading the light evenly and maintaining an ever PAR but I am a bit of a novice when it comes to lighting so would appreciate some clarification

Individual boards and heatsinks would work best, unless you get the slate 2 triple heatsinks as they are longer. With the double heatsink x2 you would get a pretty big hotspot in the middle.
