I have 4 Vero 29 gen 6 hooked up to a hlg 240 1750 was able to dim with three LEDs hooked up but when I hooked up four it stopped dimming did it switch the driver to constant voltage?
Hlg type a won't dim?

Sounds Like It Beins The Vero29 Gen 6 is 36.8 V x 4 =147.2 And The Fv For The 240-1750 Is 143 With The 0ver Load Protection At 150 V. My Question Is Why 4 On A 240? Hell the Gen6's Sweet Spot Is 80 Watts@2100mA. I Run 4 Gen6's On A Hlg320-2100B

Wanted to try it out see how many i can fit so guess back to 3 it is. I have 3 240 1750 not being used and 18 gen 6 vero not being used figured id use them up but looks like im going to have to get another 1750. Also have a sp-320-36 i can use. what is the over voltage doing to make it so dim? voltage limiting?

My Experience Comes From Hooking Up 4 Citi's 1212(34.5) To A 240-1750. When I Was At Full Power My Readings Were 1.76 Volts With 215 Watts Not Even Close To What They Should Have Been. I Talked To Rahz And cobkits And we came To The Conclusion the I Was Tickling the Over Voltage Protection Thus Limiting My Voltage. With the Gen 6 Vero Fv At 36.8 I'm Surmising That You Blew By The Protection Which Affected Your Dimming Capabilities.

That is what i thought cause the more it heats up the voltage is increasing and making the lights brighter. Ive spent enough on drivers blah.Wonder how two clu3618 will do on the 240 1750 parallel on the sstx heat sinks?

i have four cxm-32 four clu3618 24 cxm22 and 18 vero29
one hlg 600 48
two hlg 320 48
three 240 1750
one sp 320 36
one hlg 120 1400
i was thinking 1 hlg 600 for 12 cxm22
the two hlg 320 for 12 cxm22
sp 320 for 6 vero 29
three 240 1750 for 12 vero29 which i guess now is four drivers
the cxm 32 ans clu56 3816 are floating right now.
was thinking 480-2100 for 4 cxm32
two 320 2800 for clu56 3618
one hlg 600 48
two hlg 320 48
three 240 1750
one sp 320 36

Going to be split in between two 5*10 or 5*8 rooms. I'm going to try and get cxm32 chips to make another 12 cob fixture. Then I'm done for a lil while lol.

Not 100% on the 480 2100 for 4 cxm32 being the best driver for these

Was thinking of running 8-10 on a SP 1000 48. Think I'm going parallel from here going forward

But those 480h-c drivers are prime. Cdi apparently will have them in about 4-6 weeks
