HLG or H Influx

Hello friends! Hey i’m looking for try a QB board or strips but I don’t know yet what to get. I have a 2x2 tent and now running 4x 1212 Citizen 3000K 90Cri with HLG-185H-C1400B with great results, will harvest next week:



But really want a qb or strips, so the HLG: https://horticulturelightinggroup.com/collections/quantum-boards/products/qb288-v2-rspec-slate-2-single-combo Can run with a HLG-185H-54B??

Or second option, 4x 1 foot H Influx: https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/SL-B8V2N70LAWW/1510-2461-ND/8536578/?itemSeq=301615263 with a HLG-185H-24B?

Really worth the change from cobs?

In both options there’s a way to use my current driver? The calculations sadly are not for me, really it’s hard to understand.

Thanks in advance!

Worth the change? Hard to say, the cob light you have now is very good. If you a still in the 48" high tent, a strip light would let you grow the plants higher, within a few inches of the light.

Thats a good option, my tent is the same 48” height, so...

The strips will give your canopy an even coverage and do away with hot spots that cobs and qbs make. 4 strips and maybe add a qb11 red strip and its on driver.

Thanks! What driver you advice?

4 x strips and a 240w type A driver for more watts than labelled. C channel heatsinks

if its not broken why fix it
