Hot Damn,
These things are bright. Picked up a few of these off digi-key, I was able to use a driver I had already cranked way down. Right now they are currently getting approx 120 ma each diode so according to samsung calc I should be getting around 196 lm/w. Currently using 4 of the 560mm strips as some vertical side support. Strips are 5000k. Each strip has 40 diodes in a 8 series 5 parallel config. Same specs as LM561c as 200ma is max per diode. They are each attached to 1" aluminum U channel and stay fairly cool to the touch. Each strip is attached to each corner pole.
Main light is 4 x vero 29 c 3000k 80 cri, plus 6 x vero 10 2000k. Total power can hit 550w, currently running at 400w in a 100cm x 100cm tent. Plants are growing like a beast compared to when I was using the alibaba fake s6's. These diodes are tiny and pack quite the punch, I think they are perfect for side and supplemental lighting. Planning on running all three spectrums for the entire grow. BTW plants are Master Kush, 707 Truthband, Critical Kush, and OG-18.
