I'm going to add an inline 5 amp fuse since the driver is rated at 4.8 amps. I also want to put a toggle switch on each cob to allow individual testing/maintenance without interruption of light, making them hot swappable

cob kit said a 5 slot wago can run 4 cobs per driver
i have 16 cobs so i only need 4 wagos right?
why are you suggesting 8?

sorry I'm confused. I'm an extreme noob to this stuff

also, do i need to buy wires or will it be included? @CobKits

You need one wago for positive and one for negative or you'll just short the driver at the block. So 2 per driver per 4 cobs

I have a 4x4 tent that is 6 ft tall. I have a 1000w HPS in there and yield about 2 lbs.

Which LED light will give me the same yield and quality?

Also, is 6ft high enough or should I upgrade my tent to a 8ft?

My budget is $1,000.

Should I go DIY or buy a commercial one?
