CXA 3590 soon it will be CXB's which I already have in possession just gotta put the shit together.
No ones scared. It would be nice if you'd keep it cool for a while. I might be miss judging you, but your keep running around the forum like your the king gardener or something. Seen some of your insults and their quite embarrassing.
Maybe for you but not for me this is only a blog and you don't know me in the REAL WOLRD lol I'm friends with big people on here and I'm not saying any names. If you can't handle how I am just hit the ignore button and lose out on what I have to say. I'm saving peeps money and a lot of it as well. So deal with me being me. Btw the dog has grown so much and looks great, I remember when he was a pup when you posted his first pic up. I love dogs but some people are stupid and I act the way I do because I can back it. Today is my sons 24th B-day so I really don't worry about the net and how people feel about me that don't know me REAL talk
That is correct. Many hps-users only know hps and are not able to open their minds to other ways to generate Pars. It is almost funny: in my country I am on a forum for about a week and I have stated my result of with white leds (0,95 g/w), they don't believe it, they just don't. There are are only a few people who try it with Chinese leds (the pink gaylight) and it does not work. You see the plants on the picture and you know the plants miss very much good light. And some of those people are still buying the Chinese crap from salesmen saying: this led is 300 watts but generates light for 800 watts.
No par readings, no info, nothing. Just really amazing those people.
Depends on what your goal is. You want to save electricity? Produce less heat? Deliver higher light density? ...?
What you need to think of before you start, is how much efficiency do you want? The efficiency of hps is about 36%. Leds efficiency can be about 50% or 60% but you need to run the leds on low amps and you have to use more leds to get the same amount of watts.
almost 15 years experience, 20,000 - 50,000 watts at any given facility over the years. Now finally trying cobs, and so far so good, they are unreal. Best ive done with HPS is 1.9 a light, which is about .80 GPW (1070 ACTUAL watts for a 1000 watt hps with ballast), first go with chinese leds was .45 gpw, but now using cree cobs and have about 50 cobs in a test lab. I like your posts RS, keep up the good work.
Nice. I've got 15 years under my belt but never got over 10k.
So u would need 342 of those cobs? And 342 drivers?
Commercial would do better to follow a different design I think..
What Pos and Green said... look for large and efficiënt drivers, meanwell or so. The harder you run a cob, the more cooling it needs, the cooling can be active or passive. Good cooling makes a cob run more efficiënt.
My white cobs have done a much better job producing light and weed than my old HPS setups have.
Wrong wrong wrong. Dude you're still a baby at growing I can use 372 watts to veg in a 4x8 tent
