    DiY LED - Cree CXA3070

    At one point I think one needs to dive in and stop wandering around the edge of the pool ;) The really bizarre thing is just how little quality content there is out there on growing veg......people in the MJ growing community just seem to want to share more.

    DiY LED - Cree CXA3070

    Thanks for that Supra. I do kind of like the large uplift in light intensity from sourcing blues from 5000k, though Royal Blue is probably best delivered via the Luxeon ES you suggest.

    DiY LED - Cree CXA3070

    Just realised on the small chance that someone cares about the above, it's not perfectly aligned etc on the columns: to explain: 2 lamps at 1400mA, total 2800mA Percentages tell you how much each lamp is receiving at any given hour. % of total is the % of the total light being dispersed Total is...

    DiY LED - Cree CXA3070

    Danke Schön alesh :) Tomatoes and Peppers are big into intensity, but regarding spectra, it's pretty consistent policy (blues for veg, reds for flower/fruit). Loving the idea of the dimmers to operate a ratio of light on the day light mimicry .....just getting a friend to write me up some code...

    DiY LED - Cree CXA3070

    Alesh, thanks for that. So it seems a combo of 3000 / 5000 would get a good range of colours for a "hassle free" environment at good PPF levels / Watt. Or would you ditch the 5000 and go with some specific Blue LEDs? I think the blue LEDs would need to be mounted around the plant rather...

    Hmmmm.....at 3.5mm difference, I think footprint is a rubbish reason.

    DiY LED - Cree CXA3070

    They output more light in a smaller package, so with good heat dissipation, could be used in a more "flexible" set-up to drive light wherever required. They also increase the options available on active CPU coolers as some of the more advanced options out there have quite limited footprints on...

    DiY LED - Cree CXA3070

    So .....please forgive my ignorance*, but a quick question. (the background to the question is below, for those that can be bothered or are bored!) Is there any reason, barring cost (therefore potential $ efficiency), for not using a "high-density" array, such as the CXA2590? I am thinking of...

    DiY LED - Cree CXA3070

    Just a short note of thanks to all y'all asking "stupid" questions and the slightly fewer of you that are responding with respect, integrity and intelligence. I know responding to a post almost 13 months ago is a trifle "faux pas", but when I read the line "I counted the pixels in MSpaint" I...
