seriously your very condescending most the time and it's frequently obvious your just regurgitating stuff i feel you don't actually understand or know first hand. Just slow your roll

Jimmy has done a lot for the community and the lights he's uses i feel he's very honest for shooting it straight imo

I'll ask him how his communication is with optic instead because as of currently there's still members with a non functioning optic not gaining communication with the company.
Was optic your company? Is that why you're so defensive?

That eBay special clearly beats anything out now. I'd say it's too powerful for its foot print personally but it does crush anything in its price range.

No my obligations were up after this last run with optics and now its on to the next step. I will always stick up for optic because of what they did for this market and they are legit. Just getting a little dated now.
@BM9AGS You should run 3 or 4 different fixtures from different companies and see for yourself the differences in build quality and performance.
9 out 10 times you will find the coverage area you thought you had never existed due to short spacing/small cases.

Sorry, fronting for a company that goes offline for weeks isn't exactly a trust building exercise.....

Everyone seems to have an agenda these days.....

isn't this the dream though...I'm hoping who ever bought it will be able to hit the market with a real commercial panel!something in stock and bought in bulk! I got my fingers crossed but only time will tell

edit:i don't mean supporting a company that's not here at the moment but actually having a real company do something with the damn technology

Hi everyone! Im from Canada, and I have a lot of trouble finding Canada based shops that sell quality LED panels.
Do my fellow Canadians have suggestions??
Many thanks!

Before you ask me, international shipping is COMPLETELY OUT OF T HE QUESTION. Its not a variable here.

The CXA are the earlier series of diodes and the CXB is the revision....Version 2 if you will...about 5%-6% more efficient at the same current and the CXB's even run a slightly lower voltage, while being more efficient....

CXB is best of the best at the moment...or one of

Thank you so much! I appreciate the help. That's what this forum should be like. I know a ton about growing but building a LED is new to me.

Your welcome.

and..if you poke thru this thread
http://rollitup.org/t/cob-efficiency-spreadsheets.865238/

You can find some of the exact numbers for the the different types of bins and the Kelvin Temp 3k, 4k, 5k, etc....

Here is the Cree Product Characterization Tools page....
There is both the PCT which you can use to calculate any CREE LED under different parameters and a Cree Driver Recommendation Tool. :peace:

I left this forum once because of an over abundance of arrogant, self important, know it alls, who would rather berate a newb than answer a question, which when you get right down to it, is the whole purpose of a forum.
But the world is full of people like that, as they feel powerless unless they can lord over someone else.
I won't be leaving voluntarily this time!

So if you can't reply in a polite manner, or are too busy or "important" to answer a question properly, shut the hell up and let someone who cares about the subject answer. You can go to facebook and be an ass all you want, it was designed for people who have nothing better to do.......... But I'm here to learn something, not listen to know-it-alls bicker! So if you fit that description, shut the hell up and let those of us who actually want to participate in an intelligent discussion do so, because this thread is going to hell fast!

but what happens when you start to feel that people are at high risk for hurting themselves do to lack of self awareness?
Just saying a lot of ignorant questions are asked frequently if you can't read simple tutorials with pictures or watch a youtube video let alone find one maybe going this route isn't for you
