    Who here has used 20 1k hps to grow

    That is correct. Many hps-users only know hps and are not able to open their minds to other ways to generate Pars. It is almost funny: in my country I am on a forum for about a week and I have stated my result of with white leds (0,95 g/w), they don't believe it, they just don't. There are are...

    DiY LED - Cree CXA3070

    Look at the datasheet. http://www.arctic.ac/eu_en/alpine-11-plus.html. It can cool max 100 watt @12V @0.16mA on active. When on 5V they will take less amps I think, but I cannot calculate it either. You could try of course and see if they start up. I have one cob 5000K @1.4A growing in a small...

    DiY LED - Cree CXA3070

    Thanks!! Well, this was my second harvest ever, without adding extra ppm. So I am very happy about the result but trying to improve it further without adding extra ppm.

    DiY LED - Cree CXA3070

    Well @SupraSPL. My first harvest with the new apollo's and the cxa's generated a result of 0.95 gr/watts. Hoping to improve it further. Thanks for your advice and all people in this thread who helped me.

    DiY LED - Cree CXA3070

    Lol... Me too at first. I did only half what they did on the video. I took it apart and put each of the colours in a "kroonsteentje".. and it works! It costs me less time than use a special driver for each of my lightunits.

    DiY LED - Cree CXA3070

    Look on the internet for "pc voeding" and you will find many for a few euro's. You have to adjust them, get the casing open and put color by color. It is all explained in youtube videos or in some sites: http://www.wikihow.com/Convert-a-Computer-ATX-Power-Supply-to-a-Lab-Power-Supply I am no...

    DiY LED - Cree CXA3070

    Hi Kuifje. I use a small powersupply for a pc. These devices give 12V, 7V and 5V. I have all my 70 units on 5V. Works very easy.

    Another Cree CXA3070 DIY Thread

    I use also the Artic 11's, now for a few monts. I heave read that it was not necessary to remove and to sand the surface, because you won't gain very much.

    Another Cree CXA3070 DIY Thread

    Hi captain. What are you using to generate 660 nm? The 3070 highest bin has almost the same amount of 660 than blue. I read somewhere that it was about 11%. Is that percentage enough 660 nm to switch the state back and lengthen daytime to 13.5 hours? I am running 70x 3070 AB's @ 850mA, with 2x...

    Area51 stopped shipping worldwide?

    There are some companies in US where you can ship the products to, and they will ship that product to any location in the world. It is an extra step, cost a bit more but you can buy any product in US while they do not ship outside US.

    FR question

    Experiments suggested that it causes stretch, but not at what period of the growth. I could not find an experiment where 730 nm was applied after the first stretch was over. So please try.

    FR question

    Well, this is just my second grow. Never knew plants could grow so fast, I am still amazed when I see them after a day. Things are looking good. Last year I messed up my outside garden with vegetables:wall:. So I have a lot to learn. But with an inside garden, I know its all about mimicking the...

    FR question

    Yesterday I received the 2x 10 watt Taiwan Epileds (730nm) that I bought on ebay, shipment was faster than anticipated. I have build them in a cheap 10 watt flood light and used another driver to drive 2 of those lights. To switch the lights on when the white lights are shutting down, I use a...

    FR question

    The germans don't have the cree far red. @8/10 Good question, I am wondering this myself. I think to use a digital timer but every timer need to be exact on time. Or doesn't it matter if it somewhat overflows (the white and the red).

    FR question

    China.... they say that they deliver the best and newest leds, but you get the old ones. If its only for a few minutes a day, then it does not matter for efficiency, is my opinion. Led tech in Germany has also crees, but I don't see far red on their website. I will give them an email.
