@nfhiggs , What kind of spacing would you recommend between the double row led strips is a good distance? 3" from edge to edge of the tube?

The pictures of the light are an example of what I'm going to build. I posted those pics of the light so you could see what I wanted to do for my 20 influx strip build with Meanwell drivers HLG-320H-48B. Sorry for the confusion here. I'm going to return the DC meter, and get the AC version...

10 Strips per 320 driver is what I'm going to do, and let's see how the numbers turn out. I will use a par meter to measure the lux from different distances.

Thank you @nfhiggs !! My thought was there's more surface area on tubing vs the c channel. But it was thinner than what I've been seeing around RUI on DIY strip builds. I've ordered all the h-inFlux strips(40 - 3000k, and 10 - 4000k), they are due to arrive tomorrow. Drivers have arrived...

@Randomblame , I made the move and purchased 40 - L09 inFlux(3000k - due tomorrow) strips, and 4 - HLG-320h-48B drivers(received already). The plan is to power 20 strips per light fixture with 10 strips per driver based on your recommendations. I've seen around RIU some really clean wiring...

Heat sink questions for these H-inFLux strips. Can you use aluminium tube in place of channel? For example, I have 1-1/2" x 1" x 1/16" thick tube laying around. Will this work as a heat sink for these strips? I also have access to other alum tubing at really low prices, I don't have hook ups...

That's what I'm talking about!! Thank you Randomblame!! These are the numbers that I was wondering about, and tried to figure out myself. After I posted my last comment I went back and looked over the numbers of strips and drivers. 14 strips total with a split of 7 per driver(320H-48A) is...

L09 strips are what's available, so that's what I'm going to go with for now. I want to build a couple of these and go from there. The driver you recommended was HLG-480H's(2). That puts me at 960 watts total, but I can dim them down to 700 watts. This is where I'm confused on what's the...

Thank you ANC! One of my approaches to this with multiple strips is to spread the light over the canopy, and to be able to have the light closer to the canopy with a lower output to each strip. But if I wanted to crank the light up, I have the option with the system if needed. What do you...

Double row is what I'm going to build. I wanted 1120mm originally, but they are sold out with a lead time out to the end of August(digikey). But 1120mm strips were my first choice. Cost is not the issue, and I had originally had 2 - HLG-480's. But then I was second guessing myself, and I had...

I'm looking to make the change from HPS to LED. After countless hours of reading thru threads I have narrowed my decisions to the follow DIY set ups. I'm having conflicted thoughts on which driver to go with on these strips below. I have even looked at the HLG QB boards, which I think is a...
