Yep, a bunch of times. They are the real deal, great selection and customer service. Never had any problems with(I am estimating here) my 10 orders. If they have something you want get it with no worries
Peace

I'd buy from them

Ok so I have meanwell 320H-1400b, 240H-1750 and another one that I can't locate at the moment that is a constant voltage meanwell if you want to wire in parallel
Peace

I don't know what I did to deserve all of the kindness that I receive from the people in this thread... I am humbled by it all...

I have 2 of the 1750s,but I can't get either of them to work... Both are fresh out the box... And a C2100B... I'm just not savvy about the wiring I guess...

 

[Frank Nitty]

I'm running a 260w board with an 80w driver... WTF!?!?It's working though, so I can't complain too much,feel me???

Some white light blurpie I got from Amazon a while back... Roleadro is who made it... I'd run these if I had the money to get the right driver for this and the 240w rspec board... This covid 19 has messed everything up for us lower class citizens and on top of that we're all on lockdown unless you're in the healthcare business.. View attachment 4768974

Like that window screen frame??? I can put stuff together, but I can't get it to work... Go figure...

I’ve built some panels, I’m sure I can help!

[/QUOTErhe wiring I can definitely help with. What kind and how many of th boards are there? My blind ass can't see in the pic...lol I
Usually the reason they don't fire is a voltage mismatch, not enough voltage in the driver to power the number of boards you are trying to light. Have you tried lighting just one board?

I love the window screen That is one of the best part about these boards versatility. I wish I would have thought of it before buying cutting and tapping all the aluminum angle...lol

Sorry, somehow my message was still showing up in yours

Going to be seriously efficient...lol

 

[Bpeace]

Ok I see the problem( got my magnifying glass...lol). There isn't enough voltage in that driver to power 4 qb 132's. They can power only 3. So you can use 1 driver for three boards and 2 drivers for 6 boards. I know all this because I made the exact same fixture. It's a beast in a 2x4! I still have it together. I had to back it down to about
350 watts in the 2x4.
HTH

If the 54A lights up the 2 boards, then you would need to change from parallel wiring, to series wiring to use the 1750 or the 2100 driver.

Thanks TWest I forgot to mention that and also 1750ma is the max current for the qb132. So, let me splain, no there is too much. Let me sum up (anyone get the movie ref?) So you want to take one of the boards off (probably change the configuration) wire them in series and use 1 1750ma driver and you will be rockin

 

[Bpeace]

And I last thing you need to put that 2100ma driver on the 260 W kit. I have 2 in a 4 x 4 that are doind really well. I am getting about 540W from the wall.

 

[Frank Nitty]

Getting ready to do that now...

Man,if I can figure out how to do it,im gonna kick myself in the ass for dismantling my other tent!!!

LED gardener on YouTube has a bunch of really good videos about wiring all the boards....fyi. And guess you're gonna have to put that tent back up....lol

I'm confused. I thought the 80w 54A was driving the rspec boards, bc I thought the 132s were 36v.

The 132's are 36v 75W boards. I think he was using it on the Rspec because he was wired in parallel and it just worked. What it sounded like to me

Yep TWest65,you were there when I did it...
