BJB holders voltage spec is too low for series configuration

[sixstring2112]

100mA can be lethal..

"Can be " yes,for me its prob not gunna happen.i been hit twice by 200amps 240 volt.im still breathing and it was not lethal lol.coulda been but my time was not on the docket those days haha.@churchhaze where did you get that?
Its not about us licking the driver wires here,its the safety factor of running cob holders slightly over "rated" volts.most of us are fine,but im def seeing more new diy,ers looking at larger drivers.
Heres a idea i will never have time for so someone take it and make it.
Its a ideal style cob holder,all steel.but instead of push in type spring connections.you insert the wire into a similar slot that is filled with flux. and then from the topside you have a hole where you can insert a soldering iron and its already got enough solder in there so when you apply heat it welds/solders the wire directly to the cob prolly triple the volt ratings we currently see

Wet skin can be as low as 1k resistance. If you put 240V across that, you get 240mA, not 200A. 100mA is actually more likely to kill you than 200-1000mA as it has a tendency to put your heart in fibrillations.

Well then we should all stop messin with these led drivers and use car batteries

I'm just saying... even if you had wet skin, you'd need 200000V across you to push 200A through you.

It depends on many contitions.

When you lick 9V battery you should by dead...theoreticaly

Idk bout that haha

 

[sixstring2112]

Now this fucker is def cray cray,but it helps explain my pain a lil better to thosewho never felt the full force coming into the meterbox.

It won't put more than 10mA through your tongue.

Are either of you familiar with ohms law? (V = IR)

I'll answer you after you watch the video

You really ought to cut your losses here.

Lol any of us can google ohms law.bro im def not affaid to be wrong in a discussion on a weed site

Keep in mind, CLU-058 can be mounted with a couple M3 screws. No need for a holder.

 

[goofy81]

Do you have the screw dimensions by any chance?

 

[CobKits]

m3 screws are nominal 3mm diameter

 

[goofy81]

Sorry, I mean the hole distance of the actual cob without a holder

 

[CobKits]

center to center is a hair shy of 45 mm
