I bought the 2 250's so I gotta say i am pretty excited to try them. Can't wait to hang up the 600 HPS.
Cheers and sorry to hijack the thread.

Same driver just named slightly different. You'll have better spread with XL kit.Hoping that someone coumd help me out. I am a longtime HPS grower but i woukdike to make the jump to LED and i am leani g toward QB but I am still trying to get up to speed on LED so I confess that I am a LED newb.
Would someone be able to tell me what the difference is between the following 2 kits on the HLG Site;
250W XL LED BOARD KIT (I believe it is longer hence the XL)
260W QB LED KIT
I can see the obvious 10w difference but didn't know if I am missing something else. I would like to pick up 2 kits for a 3x3 or my 4x4 tent.
Thanks for any assistance.
Thanks for the reply.Same driver just named slightly different. You'll have better spread with XL kit.
You guys should build your own boards it saves 50% of cost of boards and you feel good too. Check out some GrowGreen 100w LM561C boards cost less more diodes more efficient
hypocrite, how about you keep it to your own thread?This is a thread on DIY Samsung strips not quantum boards go sell quantum boards elsewhere no selling here allowed build your own not buy quantum boards. Stop trolling with your quantum boards having sales issues need more advertising. Not interested in quantum boards thank you
Lenses are unnecessary.hey guys thinking about getting some quantum board. Someone said you need lens to use them in flower is this true? if so where do you buy said lens
Your idea simply increases your parts count without adding anything of substance to your lighting.Can someone help me out with mixing COBs and QBs? I have a 3x3 tent. I'm building a COB fixture but I'm kinda interested in adding 1 or 2 QBs. What would be the best layout for me? And what are the benefits of mixing both lights together?
That's what I thought. Thanks for the input.Your idea simply increases your parts count without adding anything of substance to your lighting.
I keep hearing how platinum led is outdated and not as efficient as these QBs. I keep searching and trying to gather enough info to justify myself switching from 5 p300s to 3 QBs. Be nice to stare at clear vs blurple but I need more of a reason to switch than that haha
that's some claim, have any real DATA to back that up?............HLG does
hypocrite, how about you keep it to your own thread?
You do know that the Platinums are nothing more than re-branded E-shine Chinese lights right? The bullshit on their page about custom spectrum is horseshit. Of all people, Mars Hydro took them to task in a video on youtube.
So the choice is, 22-25% efficient P300's or 50% efficient QBs that put out 2 1/2 times as much light.
4-6 quantum boards, pushing 600-750W total.What would you guys think over kill would be for a 4x6 wanting to replace 1000w hps. How many boards which drivers. Cost effective ;0
How does on control heat out of say a 1400 setup. My friend wants to do a 10 by 6 setup. I get with vented hoods you can just suck it out. I ran into this problem with my cob setup. If we have to run a ac kinda not that efficient.
