Difference between 1400mA and 2100mA drivers?

IMG_5370.JPG Looking into a second led array and im a little confused about the difference between the hlg 320h c1400b and the hlg c2100b I currently have a 320 c1400c

Edit: from doing a little compassion i did notice the higher the mA, 2100mA runs fewer led cobs 2-4, while the 1050 can run 5-8 . So 1400mA 4-6.

Each of the constant current drivers are rated for a specified wattage. The driver with a higher rated current has to have a lower output voltage. Power=Voltage multiplied by current.

I have 1050mah. 120watt. 3channl. 50volt max driver so 3chips split 120 3ways. 40watt ech chips. At 1050. Now i have 1050 240hlg. To. An. 5 chips on it ther all same 40watt max out. I have 3 othet not in uses. Hlg 185. 1400. Hlg 240 1750hlg. An and invanTronics. 320 2800mah. Idk y i got it lol.

Is anybody have any should us chance for2017-07-12 11.11.14.png I ask because I did not have the budget for crazy I am in the US citizen World 12:16 Clu48. 160 wat max chip I could run three of them on this drive or after breaking point or I could run 3 Sun boards ther 34 36 volt bords so idk looking forward to hearing what anybody has to say

If any one nèeds a heatsink thst will or just can handle 105 watts. Thats what its rated for pass if he think but why it was designed to have air blowing through it so recommended that you have a isolating fan blowing on it at all times if you are going to honestly pump a hunter watss into your chips

Check the voltage limits in the driver datasheets to see how many cobs you can fit on a driver. Lower amperage runs a cob more efficiently but less wattage. Output can be increased with same wattage, an example being 300w (4 cobs at 75 watts each) will deliver a bit less light than 300w (6 cobs at 50 watts each).
