Gen 2 Water Cooled Test Bar
See above in thread for more info and my other thread too.
Hey Yoda,
Yer subbed anyway, fur anybody else who's interested in water cooled grow lights too, see the previous posts here to learn about it, it ain't all preach'n and pray'n. I'm trying to move folks into the new reality, if ya figure they won't let ya grow, then I'm gonna be Hell on wheels on their arses. Go medical myself with a 5 gram a day (25 Plant) perscription, cause them old wounds and injuries is a act'n up again bigly. It's all about morals, ethics and doing the right thing, not personal greed, but I and my network of close personal friends will go to work. In the future, older adults will get max prescriptions fur free, easy, that's where I'm going if the government is no grow! I might not make personal money, but lot's of other good folks will fur sure, if yer under thirty, you'll be a rare bird who can't go to shoppers.
Now fur all the adults, I bought some materials fur a 3' long Gen2 water cooled test light bar. So here come some useful pictures and info if anybody is planing a water cooled test bar or even lamp, I might be able to help, but there should be enough info here and posted earlier if yer hands on at all or fix yer own house stuff. The BOM is as follows: 3" X 1.?" X 3' (look at the fuck'n pic) Structural aluminum C channel, You could use 2" X 1" architectural C channel too, lots of choices here. I choose this type cause it's all he had in the rack at the time and the 3' long piece cost $10 CDN + the usual, 3.33/ft fur the channel. You can order this in, in 20 ft lengths (standard) and most places will sell ya what ya need and keep the rest in the rack. Plan a big project to use around 20 ft lengths. This would work out to say a 3 bar lamp, with 6 foot log bars 3 feet wide or so (adjustable in this regard). So this kinda light using this channel would be about $70. CDN, 2" architectural C channel would be much cheaper and lighter and if yer using quality COBs would work just fine IMHO. This stuff will do a better thermal job, but might heat up the grow too, good or bad, who knows, heavy though and ya gotta lift the fucker!
The 3' long piece of 1" square tubing is structural too, I believe, and this particular profile has thick walls and rounded corners, which might be better than square, who knows at this point! Again it's what me metals Buddy (machine shop, trailers, etc) had in the rack when I dropped in fur a couple of minutes and watched him juggle tasks on the fly, reminded me of somebody. Anyway the square tubing cost $5 CDN + tax fur 3' sooo... fur the cypher'n challenged and severely stoned, it cost about $1.70 CDN/ft, if yer not stunted, ya can figure yer own costs from here. Don't be so fuck'n lazy and get off yer arse, go find out what shit costs, I can't keep spoon feed'n ya, smoke less dope!
So everything important for the test lamp, cost $15.00 even, but that might be because of my charming personality, though I doubt it, cause he was in business! I'm really wasting my time here, I should be writing humor fur Bill Maher or Colbert, what the fuck is wrong with ya people, paralyzed with fear. I know yer lurk'n and can see the views and I feel kinda like someone is a watch'n so I got me guns close by, jus incase...
Ok, onto the the test lamp, but for one more thing, notice how I'm leading from the front here, ethical shit, safety info, helping, sharing complete info, pics, descriptions, costs etc. Make it easy fur others to duplicate yer feat, cooperate to win cause yer human, goes fur politics too.
Next post fur the pictures, I gotta string ya heathen along somehow ta lead ya to the Lord! Make better folks outta ya in spite of yerself, like yer mommy I guess. Got no time fur snowflakes and will drill ya into the fuck'n ground too!
