Ok. I feel the need to clear some of the electronic side up for people... Firstly, watts = volts x amps Volts = current x resistance Secondly, A "3w" diode simply means its "average" nominal power consumption is approximately 3 watts total. ALL LEDs have a forward voltage. Expressed as vf...

Davemedinis 3w LEDs can be run at 700ma nominal. The controllers have a 240v input. The output voltage is dictated by the current limiting transistors.

Also forgot to mention3x 120mm fans + PWM controller and heatsinks = $85

Haha I get asked that ALOT. And frankly I sell them for ALOT. I pay $92 to have the chassis made up and then $25 for the 3mm plate. Here's my LED pricing from my supplier: 1.660nm,price for samples is 1.65USD/PCS,1.4USD/PCS for 1000pcs. 2.630nm,price for samples is 1.15USD/PCS,1USD/PCS for...

Haha, I have since changed other halves and she is ALOT more understanding. Hell we even smoke together this time :D I have been considering getting some designer genetics this time but I germed a few bag seeds and one of them looks like a pretty racey sativa (my favourite) Filthyfletch, ask...

PSUAGRO - Link fixed :D check my sig. - Slix

I buy my LEDs from Sealand opto electronics in China. I use 2 x 1.5w dies in my designs as they produce a greater PAR than single dies. Davemedinis, The LED die is mounted on the star shaped mini PCBs. I like to mount the LEDs this way because I can easily change dies (faulty ones or change...

haha thanks man, standard 120 deg. I want a good mix to improve proximiy. I've actually covered alo of LED stuff in great detail in my other thread.

hey guys, Slix here again back from the dead. wow its changed in the LED scene now, doesnt seem to be about power saving anymore :P I had no idea that there was a seperate forum for it! might need to see if I can get my homemade light thread moved here . Anyway.. I got bored last week and...

if you see balls its male. if you see long finger like bumps its female. how far into flower are you?

i had considered it but i dont have the room. also the temps are hard to manage for me as it is at this time of year where I am. i will revive thread when im all planted :) - Slix

haha cheers man. now all i need is some clones! How would I go about seedlings in the setup? germinate in rockwool cubes then add the cubes buried in the hydroton?

haha, Ive opted for HPS because it provides better results, faster. simple :) What do you mean by hydroton and my system gone? can you suggest a better way of doing it? the science seems so simple. any other feedback guys? :) - Slix

Hey guys Slix here again, back in the game after a 12 month break! I have custom designed a cab and built my first ever aero rig, not sure if it fits the bill so please, as always guys let me know :D Cabinet 1500h x 800w x 450d 16mm laminated chipboard 3 x 120mm 12V exhaust fans 88CFM each...

mmm.. take it from me, LED is only good for supplemental light. You wont get the density and flowering will take forever. as far as the cab size goes my room is 30x18x48 inches and i am considering a 400w cooltube HPS in an aero setup. I would suggest taking a look around here to see if others...

Gobbly this is true. I find I get a better spread of light with the 120 degree LEDs it allows me to place the lights very close and still get a good mix. If you moved 60 degree LEDs the same distance you would find that the colors wouldn't blend as well. Which I feel would cause deficiencies On...

Well I'm definetly in. Would be nice to see which spectrums improve flowering times. Sadly I didn't get a chance to finish her off "if they make it I will come."

lucindrea, As long as they are on the same phase you can run them in parallel, shame you cant just upgrade the breaker :P - Slix

I think you are confusing the high power LEDs im using and low power LEDs available on the market. the viewing angle on my LEDs are all 120 degrees.
