DIY LED LH351H LH351C

Just thought I'd post my latest lighting project. It's a mix of LH351H and LH351C diodes. Driven by an oversized 1050 mA meanwell driver dimmed way down. I want to add a few far red diodes in the future to get some of the emerson effect going but this was what I had on hand. The diode spacing and blend of ratio of red and white is crappy, but I just wanted to get it done.

I liquid soldered the diodes on to star PCBs that I ordered off ali Express, diodes and drivers are from digikey. Thermal epoxied them onto aluminium strips. Had a buddy of mine fab up a sheet metal box then wired it all up. Major PITA to build this thing and it's overkill for this small tent, full blast it consumes 210 watts and dimmed down to 35 watts is plenty of light to veg 6 bonsai moms.

I can provide a more detailed step by step if anyone is interested. Way easier to buy ready made strips or cobs though.
