    DIY COB reflectors

    Yea Doer, I suppose you are right, I was thinking small scale. @bicit - I have built 2 shades using those drawings, I scaled them up (cad or paint, I can't remember know) and got them printed at 1:1 scale by a printing shop in town. I found them originally on a tropical reef forum a few...

    @Doer // I get the safety margin. Apart from the way I set about, how would you suggest calculating the total surface area for the heatsink I posted above? I totally forgot the baseplate. (i'm gonna call that my safety margin :P )
