Citi cob built

After weeks of reading and being admittedly a pain in the ass, I got my lights figured out. Seeing that I use a 4x4 tent, I'm going to build 2 lights with 6 cobs each. They will be 3 3500k 80cri and 3 2700k 80cri, in an alternating order. For a driver I've chosen the HLG-320H-C1400.

I'm wondering about the chips tho. I see gen5 and gen6 versions and I'm wondering if the difference is at all noticeable and wether or not gen5 and gen6 can be mixed on this driver.

Any input is much appreciated.

yes you can mix on a C1400 driver

a quick test of gen5 vs gen6

bout a 5% bump

Would you say 5% is significant enough to go with gen6 in a brand new build?

5% yield x 6 cycles/year sounds substantial

I suppose if I look at it that way, then absolutely.
