I do all the time... I drive my Samsungs at max suggested voltage. They are strips though...
I have seen COBs desolder themselves when their active cooling took a shit.

You don't even know what that means, you think LEDs all run at a set voltage or some shit. Stop pretending you know what you're talking about because you are clueless. Your LEDs are premade and you don't know anything about "running them hot" .

I understand what I’m saying, you petty fool. 2 of my Tastys rant at 2150mA (Cree CXB3590 CD Bin, 3500k, 80 CRI; I think 3600mA was max the chip could handle, recommended, and it was like 35-36v), my other was 1670mA (Vero29C Gen 7, 3500k/90 CRI), and my Timber is 1400mA (same). I would have to calculate the voltage of each or look the emitters up. All with selectable current. You are literally projecting onto me because your ego sensibilities have been offended. Stop bogging this guy’s thread down like the whiny bitch you have been for two days now.

If budget wasn't an issue, I would just have bought whatever. Since I'm limited on funds, that's what I think makes it so interesting. When you take highly skilled folks, they know about photons and par and all of that shit. The average guy has X amount of bucks and wants to grow some weed. I'm kind of that guy, except by this point I have a couple grand investment.
The $400 limit is because I'm getting engaged; I can't spend more on lights till november but I have plants that still have another 4-6 weeks and I want to make sure they finish right.

I have his Blue orca haze and red rooster going. You'd love the red rooster. https://www.facebook.com/groups/Swamiseed/
Thanks everyone for your help - I wound up buying 2 lights on amazon since it was quickest and I'm essentially a dipshit. This is what I bought, thank you all for your help.

Read what I wrote dudes. I'm adding those 2 to the 2k watt I have (don't say it doesn't work, I've grown 4 plants under it already...)

I suppose it is a "2k watt led" or "2k watt equivalent led"
Am i right?

That's the perks of being smart enough to put your shit on amazon I guess. There's a lot of us who don't want to buy from a wix website, or deal with customs lol oh and 9.99 to get it here in 24 hours... Shit if you could get me something better here as quickly, I would just buy it from you on the spot. I don't want to deal with the culture of LED lighting though (the sites you buy lights from don't appeal to the average consumer), that shit isn't for me.2$ a watt for a single cree cob

That would have been better and cheaper.
But the point is: it is up to you what to do with your money.
Hps setups are still available and overall better than the "2k equivalent led"

That's a great option, but I don't want to wait 2 weeks. Also the shipping would probably be a lot more; but I will revisit this in November.
HPS is a great option too, I could replace all my lighting with just $300 more investment. That's also an option for november.

Eventually someone with half a brain will just package this shit together and put it on amazon where it belongs...What's that got to do with anything.
H influx strips are 25$ each. X8
Hlg-240h-48a are 50$ x2
Local metal shop for some u channel and angle. Maybe $50
Theres your light with change.
