How would I tell if they are the 301h's and how would I tell if the boards are true 480w .?
So 1 driver will only run 1 board ? I couldn't discard a driver and run both boards off 1 ??

You'd only max out at the drivers max which is 240w

Get a watt meter you plug your bd Into, $10 at box stores

Ok . How can I tell IF these boards have the 301h diaode' as stated by the seller , is there a way of IDing these boards . These were germed 24hrs ago . Tap root out but only fractionally on 4 . Will be ready to go into pots in the morning , BUT first day back at work so they gonna have to wait till I get home

You should keep them somewhat spread, try to space them each for a 4x2 if the are 240w each. For best coverage just buy a cheap lux meter in your grows shop and check for light being even overr the cannopy.

So are you saying from 1 point to the othe could have a 2 ft spacer ? Which would the create 4x4
The seller recons this

Yeah, basicly, and then you can get a lux meter to even things out. Anything is better than both in the middle.

That's a 36-volt driver. I haven't seen QB's in that voltage range really.

so what do you mean ?

Are you sure that's the correct driver for the boards? Most non-HLG QB's I've seen are 48v.

 

[Trickyticky]

Where does it say 36 volts ?
Honestly am brand new with qb's .
I know they been around for years but they have seamed to of taken off over the last couple of years , please fill me in on what it is your referring too .

So what's the best ? The 36 v or the 48 v ?
