    COB vs blurple spectra

    Brother Guod ,I wanted to ask something to you ... Is there any evidence that higher green plants ( like mj ,for example ) do have Chlorophylls D & F (far red Chlorophylls ) ? Or they are present only in marine plantae kingdom ,like red algae and cyanobacteria ? Do you have any info / links ?

    CO2 fixation calculation tool for COBs

    Well,I did digitize the RSPD of the CXB3590 30006K 90Ra to doublecheck the figures ... So..The BD bin @ Tc=25 C and @ 1.4 A gives these numbers at the spreadsheet : LER : 276 Rad.Efficiency : 51,9% Power Dis. : 48,776 W lm/W : 143,42 PPF : 124,41 umols/sec Mass of CO2 fixed in 12 hours ...

    CO2 fixation calculation tool for COBs

    Thanx,bro... I've used values of PCT at 25°C for the CXB3590 ... Still I've one question . The CXB3590 has the same VF for 1.4 and 2 A (being 34.84 V ) ? :P ( @2A isn't it 35.93 V ? ) Anyway ,,I did not expect a PP efficiency of 70% .. I was hopping that it would 've been greater than of the...

    CO2 fixation calculation tool for COBs

    Well... I'm not able to go to sleep ,tonight ... So -just for the fun of it- made a new tool ... A spreadsheet that calculates how many grams of CO2 your plant(s) fix per light cycle . How it works : Basically it multiplies the RQE McCree curve with the Cannabis L. Sativa absorptance...

    Thermal Paste TIM application Stencil Template for COBS

    Cree uses ceramic material for casing it's COBs. Since ceramic is non electrical conductive , there's no issue about graphite and galvanic corrosion . A copper heat sink can be used with ceramic COBs and graphite TIM . A ceramic heat sink also can be used . But an aluminium heat sink remains...

    Thermal Paste TIM application Stencil Template for COBS

    (...)The use of graphite is limited by its tendency to facilitate pitting corrosion in some stainless steel,[17][18] and to promote galvanic corrosion between dissimilar metals (due to its electrical conductivity). It is also corrosive to aluminium in the presence of moisture. For this reason...
