Does anyone know what °C/W/3" means?

looking at the 1 inch model on heatsink usa. It says

C/W/3": approximately 14.00

So does that mean it is able to cool off 14 watts per 3 inches? Or does it mean it's able to cool 14 degrees per 3 inches of watt power? I'm kind of confused. I figure it's the first one but I have no idea.

Thanks guys.

I didnt say anything rude...when I said "I heard leds suck ass", I meant exactly that...thats what ive heard from friends of mine who gave them a try and then immediatly went back to mh/hps...if you think that was rude, then I dont know what I can do for you, you guys seem pretty defensive, I have respect for everyone. unsubscribed :-|
Wtf please subscribe again, I'm here for the truth and I read your post and I understand what you meant.

I'm Led, let others go to whatever lights they want.

Ignore people who misconstrue what you have wrote.

Just upgrade my HLG 500W QB to a Series 3+ Full Spec Infinity 500W Quantum Board from Budget LED. Bought it during their Black Friday sale and it arrived today and it looks spiffy. Good timing too as I was just starting my newest grow as of yesterday.

What are all those blues lights?
Some are UV and some are blue veg lights, as this is Budget LED Infinity Boards. So all 4 of the lights on the board have an on/off switch for UV. Plus they each have a switch for a Veg Blue and/or Flower Red light option to add for each stage of your grow.

That’s what I did with those 4-5k Samsung strips. Running soft 17-20w each bar. Adding those reds/blues that are 3/5w each. Can get the whole thing up to 220w if needed. Just a cheap side project. No idea how well it’s going to perform lol. Adding some 3.5k small star cobs around the colors soon
Made a 2x4 Flower light to go with the 4/5k veg light.
All strips are Samsung M series 3.5k from a couple weeks ago when arrow had them for 89c. Lol
150lm/w I’ll take for the price. 24v-1350ma. 320w at 90%. Found Meanwell EDR drivers for Cheap $20-150w-that mount outside the tents.
taking a shot on the 660nm’s strip instead of Cree stars on veg. Next round coming soon to test these diy out! Trainwreck/Hdream.
safe new year everyone:joint::peace::joint:
