His guys, like many growers' I'm into the LED "hype but ' like many top of the range led grow lights are fucking expensive lol.
Need a versatile grow light that can light up a 3x4 & 4x4 tent if needed.
I'm thinking more in the lines of spending £500/$800 for a light that produces dimmable capability/600/800 average par/full spectrum and draws around 400/600 )watt's from the wall?
Anything in this range will set me or you back £700/£1200 if I was purchase a pre built grow light like kind k750, timber 4x4 cree cxb3590, chilled gen2 400&500w.
No matter wich way I go I'm looking at big numbers for a hobbyist grower£££ lol
I've been reading lots if hack posts and' I think this is the way to go, I've found a cob style grow light that's a great size & shape for multiple links if you want to expand from a single light to multi light setup. With the daisy chain function 1 light in a 2x4 can easily become 3 lights in a 4x8?
This is the LED I'm considering hacking...
I contacted the seller for more information about things like drive capability and also current the drivers are run at? The response back was vague but interesting at the same time.
The seller said, our lights are epilied led's x4 cobs run by 2x drivers each cob so' 8 drivers producing 370watt's from the wall with 92.5watt per cob but u would have to hack it to confirm?
I'm thinking' 4x citezen48 or vero29 gen 7? When all said and done I think this could come in a lot cheaper than a pre built light?
4x citizen's48 3500k on ebay are £40
4x vero29 gen7 3500k rapid.led are £100
With holders&lenses and other miscellaneous items like thermal paste each unit could come in around £300/£450?? These are rough estimates but probably not far from what it will cost.
Just a idea? but if any one wants to chime in with some info or ideas that would be great
Happy growing people
