Brownouts often coincide with surges right before or after, so yeah a surge protector can help protect your stuff. Mean Well HLG drivers have automatic input voltage compensation so a mild brownout will generally not affect them. They will keep right on chugging as long as the voltage stays above 90 volts or so, below that I think they just shut down.
You can easily do a strip build for that space. You could do the HLG 260 kit for around that price also.
I wasn't promoting anybody's business. He asked what he could do for 300$ and I gave him some options. Regardless if its HLG's thread or not. I am going to throw out multiple options, and he can choose which would suit his area best.
I am chill. It could have been avoided by just not saying shit in the first place and minding ones own business. And no I amnot going PM him to give him suggestions about a light because im in an HLG thread.
Im more than respectful lmao. I have purchased plenty of product through the company. Don't worry about what im doing and you'll be okay. If you don't like what I post, continue scrolling. I posted that link as an example of what can be done. Obviously there is the HLG website and their product are on display. Did you miss the part where I also said you could do the HLG 260 kit for around 300$?
That's pushing the QB120s a bit more than HLG intended. I'd opt for a 4-pack of QB132s with an HLG-320H-36A.
So it does! Interesting. HLG used to list them at a max of 60w per board, without heatsinks (back when I bought mine). I don't see that driver listed though? I'd still go for the 132s though - same price, more diodes, higher capacity.
