I just put them on 12V 1A adapter parallel, one on each side, you can find on aliexpress or ebay the ones with speed control for around 5$ but no need since you want them on max power...2x 2 inch M4 screws up and down on each vent to give them room to breathe...those on the pics are 120mm, i...

Why not just put them on the side of the tent with a couple of longer screws to keep the sides at some distance? ;)

I have cree -00701, so i should be good with runing them 15min before and 15min after to keep it simple and still be in the safe zone concerning stretching?Does the stretch trigger immediately after you pass the 4000 micromole mark or do you have some headroom before it activates stretch?

For how long after lights out would you run 4 x FR @300ma in an 80x80cm?I'm guessing somewhere around 15min would do the trick

I like the first one with 12 cobs @1400, that's more than enough light for 4x4 and a decent efficiency

Still man, he was right and you were wrong, dollars and euros can't change that.Just my 2c

Actually no you are not and you owe that guy an apology, say it's some new strain you've been smoking and it does that sometimes Watch the videos you posted again, what does he say how much energy goes to photons and how much on heat compared with currents? To put it simple...you have 2 rigs...

The strips are awesome and easy to work with i completely agree...i calculated in my build A1 184 lm/w and AY 198 lm/w, not a small difference at .097mA...i can get also 3500k DB instead of strips and run them at .875...AY would beat them probably but i am not sure where they stack up against A1...

Speaking of 200+ lm/w has anyone even seen the AY bin?Seems impossible to find anything with that bin, does it exist

Safe zone probably 80-100w, 150-70-10 is rated good for 60-70w...all rough estimate You have link for them?

I don't think so but i would tell the wife it does, you might get her to get naked and go water the plants more often...win win

I have the same driver and i would use 6 of them, 2 in parallel...i think when i was doing the calc it was around <100mA per diode, less than 50% of what they can manage...the numbers were around 190 lm/w for 5000k 80cri s6, didn't calculate the other colors

Nope but it is much easier just to ask someone who already has them instead of going through 40 pages of specs just to find that one little bit of info, also if you have only started to looking at strips "8sx9p" doesn't mean a lot to you...that little quote is about all the info there is in the...

@Rider509 I currently have 4 cobs 3000k 90cri on hlg-240-1750, just gonna increase efficiency by adding 3000k 80cri strips to the circuit...gonna run everything soft and see what happens

For 22" is 8sx9p on F and 8sx6p on H...if they use same chips it basically comes down to putting items in cart for F and then for H series(same number of diodes, not strips) and see which one wife is complain less about lol
