    Samsung F Strip Build

    I'm still waiting on my hlg-480h-48a driver from TRC, so I'm trying to get everything together in the meantime. My frame is going to be 48x24 and I'm going to most likely use 10 of the SL-B8U7N90L1WW strips. I'm wondering would I need heatsinks running them at around 45-48 watts each or would a...

    Samsung F Strip Build

    So, I got my strips in from Arrow a couple days ago and some material for my frame from Lowe's yesterday. About to order some miscellaneous things from Amazon and my heatsinks, but I'm a bit confused with the driver. My plan was to go with the MW HLG-480H-48A. While looking on Arrow, I noticed...

    Does anyone in the US make extended height tents besides Gorilla?

    Hydro Crunch and Viagrow have 6.5 and 7 footers respectively, but unless you're able to build out your own space, I don't think you'll find anything taller in the US besides Gorilla Grow tents

    Does anyone in the US make extended height tents besides Gorilla?

    Gorilla grow tents have height extensions available with their tents that can go up to almost 9 feet

    Great Lakes Genetics ?

    I had a similar thing with my 1st order when I got a pack of Shaman Dank Genetics' Triangle Wizard. Been trying for a minute to find some info on them. Gonna run them shortly regardless, but my OCD has been in overdrive from not being able to find any info on them.

    A Friend looking for good LED Lighting options?

    If you're able to diy, you could order 20 or so SL-B8V7N90L1WW 3000k or SL-B8U7N90L1WW 3500k Samsung strips from Arrow.com and 2 Meanwell HLG-600H-48A or B drivers along with some aluminum channel for a frame and have your 1200+/- for 700 or 800 including the extra bits to finish it out.

    A Friend looking for good LED Lighting options?

    If he's willing to go DIY and build his own rig, he can get these. They had been almost 30 apiece. I just ordered 20 of them. https://www.arrow.com/en/products/sl-b8u7n90l1ww/samsung-electronics

    Samsung F Strip Build

    I appreciate all the help guys! I'm going to try out the Samsung calculator. It'll take me a while since I have no clue what half of that means on there, but hopefully that'll give me all the info I need.

    Samsung F Strip Build

    I was hoping that 480 watts split between 10 would allow me to just mount like that. Would running them at about 48 watts apiece give good results or would that be too soft? I think they can run about 60-65 each. I've seen a few threads saying with alot of these strips, you can get superior...

    Samsung F Strip Build

    Five minutes before I posted my questions. Even with the 2 dollar per strip import tax, at 7 apiece, you can't beat that.

    Samsung F Strip Build

    I just ordered 20 of the 3500k at 5 apiece. Can I run 10 of these in my 2.5 x 5 room on a MW hlg-480h-48a driver in parallel with no problems? If so, would I need to heatsink them since they would be running a little soft? Or should I run more of them on a 600?

    Samsung F Strip Build

    Thanks for the heads up! I'm going to be all over the 3500k for 5.06 when I get off work in the morning. Looks like they added around 1500 to their inventory. Wondering how about 20 of those running soft in my 2.5 x 5 space would do.

    Samsung F Strip Build

    Yeah, those are the ones. I figured I'd get 20 or so to have plenty of backups, but I'm open to suggestions if anyone has any alternatives that are comparable. I've heard some good things about some of the Bridgelux strips, but I wouldn't know where to begin. I'm pretty far behind on most things...

    Samsung F Strip Build

    I was talking about the SL-B8V7N90L1WW. They were 4.92 yesterday and now they're showing at 29.42 when I pull them up.

    Samsung F Strip Build

    Well, I think I really screwed up by waiting to place an order with Arrow. I was going to grab up 20 or so of the 2 ft Samsung strips at less than 5 each, but after a couple comments I saw on here, decided to think about the more expensive 4 ft single and double row strips that are out of stock...

    Samsung F Strip Build

    The 480 was the one I was really looking hard at based on alot of the positive feedback on here. My biggest issue was understanding how to figure out how many strips to run. Seeing the different numbers like 1380 milliamps and 52.1 volts for those strips and 48 volts and 480 watts for the driver...

    Samsung F Strip Build

    As I said, I'm not very inclined with most things electrical, but if my attempts with googling were successful, I came up with roughly 60 or so watts per L09 strip. This would allow me to run 7 or 8 of those off one MW 480 or even 600 driver? If I lucked out and got that somewhat right, would...

    Samsung F Strip Build

    After seeing this post, I figured i'd ask you guys a couple things. I'm not very knowledgeable of electrical components, but I'm pretty mechanically inclined. I had considered an HLG or Timber setup for my 2.5'l x 5'w x 6.5'h tent, but this made me reconsider. I am thinking of building my own...

    Shaman Dank Genetics?

    My GLG shipment included some freebies from Shaman Dank Genetics called Triangle Wizard. It's a cross of LVTK and Bodhi's Pinball Wizard. Thinking about dropping a couple soon to see what's up, but wondering if anyone knows anything about the breeder? Can't find anything anywhere on them.

    Bad Dog Genetics

    Just got my GLG delivery and got the testers from BD. Pretty stoked to see how they turn out. GSC forum cut x A13 F4. Honestly, I've had neither, so I have no clue what I should expect. Gonna have some Skunky D from Schwaggy going, too. May try to pollinate a branch of each one if I get a male...
