Difference between 1812 and 1212

Naija · Apr 18, 2017

i know the difference is 1812 means 18 Die count in series and 12 in parallel, and 1212 means 12 in series and 12 in parallel; but what difference do they make in the light quality?

And any one has any info about the spectral content (% of total PAR) for various COBs?

zero difference in light quality, they use the same spectra

1812 is a 50V chip and ever so slightly more efficient at a given wattage

its a strange chip. 1818 is better in the 50V range. 1212 is better in the budget range

CobKits thanks a lot.

I've been to your website several times and sent an email, I am still in the process of finding the suitable lights for my 10X10 grow area and was wondering if you are open to the idea of customizing the lights, I would have bought the parts and did them but I am sure it won't be easy for a first timer...

not hard at all just plan it out first watch some vids hard part is making sure you got the right match for driver and cob but cobby will keep you straight on that.
