Im just about to sodder up my lights, for the potentiometer how do I wire it? First tab is ground? Hot for middle and then return wire is the last one?

Also is the brown or blue wire powering my hlg driver the main power?

Quick question guys do you receive more power from running two Quantum boards on a 240H-C1050Ma driver in series then you would in parallel not sure which driver to go with 1400ma 2100ma help a noob two Quantum boards please.
 
@Stephenj37826 @robincnn with my 4x4 tent would it be better to use two slate 3's with 2 boards each?
Or use two slate 2's with 2 boards each?

I thought the 3' sinks would allow me to get the boards closer to the walls and more even coverage.
Am I right or does it not really matter all that much?

You are right and this is why for my 2x4 closet I went with the 260w kit but on a slate 3
 
Ok thanks man, so that crappy lil drawing I uploaded looks correct then? Just wanted to make sure before I went and wire it up tommorow. Thanks!

Check this out.
(Two boards on the bottom are connected together in series) and (the two boards on top are connected in series = + to -)
And call each set a chain ... now both chains are connected to the DC source in parallel ( each chain's + is connected to the DC + and each chains - is connected to the DC neg) so the chains are in parallel but the boards within each chain are in series.
I hope this clarifies it :-)

@Seedjunky
I think i may have made a mistake in the previous drawing. This looks better better to me too or maybe both are correct??? ... i hope someone else here can confirm this!
My apologies to the community for the mistake i have made if i had made one!

Quick question guys
Will this wiring picture from hlgs website work for 4x304 boards running off an hlg 4802100b so I have 2 strings of 1050ma , wire it the exact same way ? Also will each individual board be receiving 1050ma each?

No, that is 2, series strings, in parallel making each string about 220V and 2100ma. I believe you could wire 2 Parallel circuits in series.
