There is no reason that the C2100 won't run those 2 boards if they are wired properly. Wired in series they should be at about 115-125 watts per board. Is that the 80 watt driver I sent you with the QB 120s?

Wrong Driver!

That's a 24 volt driver, you need a 454 volt driver. HLG240H-54

3 on a 240 watt driver will work well.

was going to say the refurbs but someone beat me to it! And they are warrantied.

Good to see you back!

The QB 96 uses high power diodes vs the mid power ones used in the QB 288s and Diablos. They get fairly hot when driven above 100 watts per light, its why the have those heavy heatsinks. No, they won't catch fire.

It's not the voltage that will kill you, it's the amperage. And I've had the unfortunate experience to witness an industrial accident, someone electrocuted by 880V three phase.......... That was 40 years ago and I still have nightmares about it! My advice is DON'T touch bare wires that are part...

I'd go with the 480H-C2100 as I see that as the sweet spot for power and efficiency balance, but the 320H-C1400 will work fine also. What size area do you plant to light with these? And although PJ DIAz is right, the actuality is it only takes about 43 volts to overcome the resistance of skin...

You still got top shelf diodes! What I've heard is that Samsung's top bin LEDs have been so good they created a new bin And HLG is getting them. As soon as someone from HLG confirms or denies I'll let everyone here know.

I know this is the DIY thread but I hope that by posting here we pick up some interest again. So if anyone has an HLG light and or grow they'd like to post pics of, please do!

Just a couple auto GG to get started with. This is the longest my room, a month, has been down since Jan. 2014! Got a sad looking mutant GrandDaddy Purple I might grow out just for giggles.

finally!

Sweet!

Just for final confirmation here is the reply I got: We have been shipping the Scorpion Diablo with the new diodes 100% since August 1st. No older boards have been shipped since that date and actually a bit sooner than the announcement. As for the manuals, we just got the new manuals back...

I boxed the light till the growroom is finished. I'll get it out and check.

I've sent my contact an email because we can speculate all day as to who's got what. I'll post as soon as I get a reply.

Should sink their skills into better light too!

How long??? And how long has the Scorpion been out? Don't let anger outweigh common sense, call them. Hell I'll forward your suppositions to them and get the ball rolling. But to bash anyone or company when you've made no effort at all to do anything about it doesn't make you look like you...

Did you contact HLG about your new light? I can tell you, there is no "old stock". I know of several people who's lights were made the day they ordered them. If your light doesn't look right, contact HLG, things don't get corrected unless you do!
