I saw that, I'm grabbing two of those kits. I'll take this opportunity to give Dan and Timber a plug..
Dan has been extremely helpful and supportive; I have a lengthy PM going with him. He answers questions with responsiveness and courtesy, pretty much doing the things necessary to grow the business. I'm a year into this and am so ready to ditch the Chinese panels. Very happy I found Timber. Quality, expertise, price, thoughtful designs which take efficiency and performance into consideration, all topped with great service. Major props to Timber.

I'm thinking of going frameless and hanging the modules individually using common rope/rachet hangers. I got the idea seeing this module from another heatsink company:
I'm thinking of running two strips of duct banding from the pre-installed bolts that Timber includes to meet at top for an anchor point:
I'd run each module's power cord up with the hanger rope, and locate the driver outside the tent. Any input on a better way to hang individually appreciated!

I thought about that myself....but that would be a mess of wires and trying to make a perfect pattern to hang from the ceiling would suck. Also it was only about $50 for me to make my frame for 4 4cxb kits so!?! Too easy to go with what's best.
Yeah cables could get crazy, I have a ton of velcro cable wraps, if too bad I'll go angle frame.

My thoughts exactly

When I get mine I plan to hang with thin steel line and some small eyelet hooks I found that should screw right into the heat sink and keep driver out of tent
Got the idea from Dan and think it should work great bc the top of my grow area is a wooden pallet
Like between the pins? How many and what size?

I haven't seen them in person just pictures on the website but there are four holes predrilled that most people use to attach to a frame

The 4 holes that are pre-drilled for mounting on the top are M3-.5 and are perfect for 6mm long screws. You can make these eyelet instead of cap screws and achieve a hanging effect. Or mount them to L-Angle or 80/20. Lots of options depending upon your budget and amount of free time.
Thanks Dan I'll take a look at the screws.

The light is kept about 12 to 18 inches from the canopy.
Yet another reason to ditch "high power" Chinese panels. Nice thanks

This light replaced a Chinese, actually, 2 Chinese panels.
This light is...better.
