^ Haha! Me so prawny - me love you long time! :hump:

I've downloaded the software and will hopefully get the IES files tonight. Then it's just a matter of teaching myself how to use it - lol. I'm a bit hampered because the software is Windoze only and I have to run it on my virtual Mac. I also can't use the latest version. But I'm happy to share the IES files with anyone who wants to have a go.

The software can be downloaded here: https://www.dial.de/en/dialux-desktop/download/

Just topped the bjezus out of these guys prior to hoping onto the coals of Vesuvius late next week. 27C at 64%RH, these girls should recover nicely for next week.

Looks like 100% humidity in the leaf zone...are you testing urea nutrition via trouser snake foliar spraying?

Yeah, it's just a shame that the flow-on effect has driven up prices of strips and just about everything else made in China that is sold by Digikey and others. I suspect these tariffs may hit the electronics industry pretty hard.

At least we (in Australia and other countries) don't have to pay tariffs when we buy from China. But Australia has a trade surplus with China (we sell more iron ore, gas, coal and other commodities than we import Chinese goods), so there's no way we'll be starting a trade war with them!

I do like the fact the US is standing up to China, though. The old Don, eh? Whodathunkit?

Yeah, strips are for sure more expensive already. An H-influx L06 strip(88 LM301b) costs ~29€ incl. VAT from digikey and a locally assembled LED-tech strip(98 LM301b) only 15,90€. With arrowdotcom its almost the same situation...
2 years ago I got 20 single row 2ft f-strips and 8 Bridgelux V18 for 250$ shipped(with 10% discount from arrow), 11$ per strip, 3,75$ each COB. Those times are gone..

Broken clock right 2x per day...no strategy, just chaos...you’re lookin at the beginning of a worldwide recession...

What is really needed is a tech transfer agreement...tpp woulda isolated china, economically...but the dumbass couldn’t do the smart thing...this guy is nothin but stupidity, dishonesty, and hate...and unfortunately we’ll have to learn the hard way...
