    QB96 Elite V2 w/ SSTX heatsink question

    You say compression from screws? I never tightened screws beyond snug. I removed liner on both sides. And now knowing what leaked on plants i will be throwing away more than 4 times what the 96's had cost me and i bought 6 of them. As far as the product goes , frickin awesome, as far as the way...

    QB96 Elite V2 w/ SSTX heatsink question

    Kind of needing to know from HLG what it is. Haven't heard from anyone yet and am pretty sure what grew under will have to be thrown away unless someone can assure me that what ever leaked is safe for consumption.

    QB96 Elite V2 w/ SSTX heatsink question

    I am totally happy with 96's. Small bump in road and new product getting up and going. Hence when I bought them it was pre-release, hic-ups expected I guess, For all the haters , keep growing with what makes you happy but I like the new, even with it's small problems that may come about. Bought...

    QB96 Elite V2 w/ SSTX heatsink question

    I know I am not happy with being sent a thermal pad that leaks oil, so i have 6 96's attached to heatsinks that leak oil. I took the screws out and the 96 doesn't want to come off easily and I don't want to pry to remove. Really don't think running them is good idea, so now i have $600 sitting...

    Pretty sure its from the pad. These pics are from one that was only ran for like 10 minutes about 2 months ago. The oil was only around the edges of 96 where pad is, around the whole perimeter of 96.

    QB96 Elite V2 w/ SSTX heatsink question

    The most i have ran is 4 of them on a HLG-600H-54B. On 12\/12 and fan always on them. I have 2 that i have put together but never ran, will have to take them apart and take a look. Actually I need to get with HLG and get some other thermal pads, was a bitch cleaning.

    I had the foam ones, removed plastic from them. The foam was kinda thick and when snugged down a little of foam spread out of side a little.

    QB96 Elite V2 w/ SSTX heatsink question

    Has anyone else had any issues with the 96 leaking like oil from the thermal pad? Noticed spots on the plants but didn't figure it out till plants got pulled and flipped the lights up and heatsink and 96 had a lot oil substance on them.

    I see a portable heater in your tent. Who would of thought 5 years ago that one would need a heater.

    One of my builds was using the LT-Q562A strps and they are rated from 450 to 900ma. They are adhered to a sheet of aluminum that is 0.080 inches. They have oscillating fans blowing over and under to keep cool and air movement to plants and everything is very cool to the touch running 600watts on...

    cutter electronics anyone?

    I have never had a problem with DHL. Shipping is always fast, have ordered from China and get stuff in like 4 days. Might be driver more than service. I live a few hours away from Cincinnati and i think that's one of there mega-hubs. UPDATE: Just placed an order for a little over $110 and...

    Sol-Skin, let the journey begin...

    I ordered 5 Sol-Strip 5050-BR's and was wondering how many watts each strip could be ran using a 1" heat sink { C/W/3": approximately 14.00 } from heatsinkusa or 1.813" { C/W/3": approximately 4.5 }. The way it is advertised it says over 40,000 lumens at 300 watts for 1 strip. So that's the max...

    My first CXB 3590 run...

    How many each of the 730, 660, and 365's are you running and are they 3watt. Also do you run them at 350mA or 700mA. I plan on doing a grow about a meter squared.
