does anyone have any 3500k, dont seem to be stocked anywhere in the high flux bins?Everyone is headed to 3000. No indication yet on whether 80 or 90 is better, but reports of 3000 -vs- 3500 are either neutral or favoring 3000.
Well, datasheets can help you find the potential PPF (4000K will have the highest) but it won't tell you how the plant will react to the spectrum. The Mcree study suggests the orange/red band is 150-200% more effective in provoking photosynthesis than blue/yellow so a spectrum with more red should be superior, and yet due to phosphor loss there ends up being less light.Thanks. I'll take a look at the data sheets
Digikey may have some. They have a small selection but there's so many versions I don't blame them. My ETA for bulk purchase was 8-12 weeks when I ordered.does anyone have any 3500k, dont seem to be stocked anywhere in the high flux bins?
yes dont wanna chose the wrong stockDigikey may have some. They have a small selection but there's so many versions I don't blame them. My ETA for bulk purchase was 8-12 weeks when I ordered.
There are 30 different versions of the Vero 29, not including the decor/specialty types. So with all 4 size Veros, 120 versions plus the specialty spectrums, probably close to 200 choices.
The 3 is a color bin indicating how accurate the K value is. You can see the color steps in charts further down the datasheet. Can be useful for consistency in consumer lighting but not something that will have much effect if any on plants. Just get whatever is cheapest or available.I understand the last two digists to be that it's the latest Gen7 and binned to '3'. However, I don't know if the scale is a higher number being a better bin or what.
That's very good news! Thanks for pointing it out. I hope the current reflector holder from Ledil will work with them.Side note: I just hopped on Bridgelux's website. Looks like they just released the VERO SE line? Appears to be the Vero with built in push in wire retainers. (No need to buy their JST style connector) I kinda like that setup.
Thanks for the info Rahz, I'm still curious how my chips are a '2', when digikey only sells 3/4.... and bridgelux only states 3/4 is an option. However, if this is based on the color ellipse steps I think you're mentioning, then the lower the number, the better? So 2 step is better than 3 step, etc.The 3 is a color bin indicating how accurate the K value is. You can see the color steps in charts further down the datasheet.

2 step should be the most accurate. Digikey does catalog the 2 step bins if you look for them, none listed in stock though. 2700-4000 come in 2 or 3 step and the higher K come in 4 step only. Where did you get those?Thanks for the info Rahz, I'm still curious how my chips are a '2', when digikey only sells 3/4.... and bridgelux only states 3/4 is an option.

I noticed there are only two 3m holes. As far as the clamp, it looks like the current design will leave the entry holes available but definitely will block the release mechanism... not something I would feel the need to wait around to be revisedLooks like the Ledil Clamp will sit on it but becomes a holder on a holder and will likely block the wire release pins, I assume Ledil will release another holder to suit

thats cool but doesnt look like there is any provision for reflectorsSide note: I just hopped on Bridgelux's website. Looks like they just released the VERO SE line? Appears to be the Vero with built in push in wire retainers. (No need to buy their JST style connector) I kinda like that setup.
i wouldnt trust those numbers, both the vero29C and the V22-C have impossibly high low current numbers. the Vero29C didnt test out as expected, i wouldnt expect the V22C to eitherThese were all from DigiKey. $13-16/piece. I bought 4x3K and 2x4K chips for my first decent light build. If the simulator specs hold true, these are almost as good as a ~70v Vero29, but 50% the cost(it beats out the 50v Vero29 by ~10lm/w when underdriven). .
Run them as low as possible but = 50w/sqf or 900+ PPFD.Hey guys,
I would really like to join the group of people from EU which want buy in bulk due to mqq, I would like to buy about 10 vero v7s 3000k and 5 vero 5000k. Please what would be best possible way to drive them for high efficiency.
Which would be the best option for me C version ?
I got interested in this since I found supra, that was in 2014, back when he used cxas. Im really happy how these the evolution in led is moving forward .
Thx for the advice
If your not going to group buy, buy from your country or youll get hit with big duty fees.Hey Trippyness and everybody else,
I wanted to buy veros from china but now when it comes to bin, Im unsure which is the best (the c version) also which is the most efficient (36v or 72v ? and have availible good priced drivers in EU?
KB previously recommended that I should use
I would really appreciate the advice and help and finally It would be possible forr me to fully join an contribute to community
- 3x hlg/185h/c1050 ( I would preffer the b version if it is that one where you can attach the potenciometer) for running 15 vero v7 cobs - 5cobs each driver running at 40ww ( I have no idea which bin the KB have)
- I dont know if its a good driver for my setup, I dont want to overdrive the drivers or harm the cobs by doing that .
Please Malocan, Rcoket Soul, optzulu, CobKits, I know its been a few days when you talekd about group buy.I would gladly enjoy the group and buy 15 pieces /10x 3000k 5x 5000k if possible.
- Alesh please where did you get your drivers?
