Merry Christmas HLG Stephen, HLG Robin, HLG Amit, and HLG Everyone else
Thanks for making the 2018 'from me to me' gifts so much cooler and thanks in advance for the 2019, 2020, 2021... ones as well.
ps..most of us are itching to buy some 730 nm goodness or some other next new thing soon please.

They have some 730s (qb eighteen) but its more for the emerson effect than eod. There was a youtube video I seen of some guy with 730 HLG flower initiator light about two months ago. Maybe its in the works.

I was referring to the initiators..
That being said, there are three form factors of multichannel reds and blues LED boards that I think would sell very well:
1.) 2 foot strips to make the strip builders go crazy
2.) 11.25" strips to make the QB builders go bananas
3.) round boards that fit on pin sinks (with mau5 style wire holes maybe?) to make the COB guys HLG converts
but I'm stoked for anything new!

@Stephenj37826 Can i use the Hlg-600h-54a to power 2 or 3 288v2s or does it have to be four or more. I would dim power supply if i was able to use less boards.
I will be using a 2x4 tent to veg and i will be adding a second 2x4 tent so i will have a total of 4x4 flowering area.
Eventually my goal will be to have (3) 2x4 tents. One for veg and clones and two for flowering.

You can do that as long as you don't run each board past 160 watts.

Anyone have a par map for the QB96 ELITE V2 ?
( which reminds where the hell did led gardener go, loved it when he got these things and did spec vids on the boards ?)
EDIT:
Alright only way im gonna find out is test them against 9-QB288s same wattage side by side tent style.
Crossing fingers,
Anyways @Stephenj37826 I have extra Hlg 320h-54 sitting around. I can use this and go parallel with 4 QB96 ELITE V2 correct ?

Can you run the 288''s @ 70w per without a heatsink? That's 81mA per LM301b..

The QB guide says 50 watts without a heatsink. I ran one at 60 watts for a year without a heatsink. I'd say keep it to no more than 60 watts

I'm picturing (3) QB288's in a row, and (2) 44in strips (SI-B8U201B20US LED MODULE LT-QB22A 3500K STRIP) one on each side.
Can I run the (3) QB288's and the (2) f strips on the same FPS 300w driver without going over 60w/QB288?
The QB288 v2 (might be v1) are only $25/ on Alibaba and the qb120/qb132 are $100/4 on HLG so I figured I was getting more bang for my buck buying the 288s over 120s (which can be run without heatsink at max 70w)..

Anybody know if c-series drivers are adjustable like an a-series driver?
Example:
480h - c2100
I got a bunch of mini-QBs (36leds) that run on 76v, .38A, for 30w.
Was wondering if I could wire the mini-QBs in 3 series of 8 parallel using a 480h-c2100?
480w ÷ 2.1A
=
~228v
228 ÷ 3
=
76v
2.1A ÷ 8
=
.26A
Is there some sort of pot?
What's the worst efficacy of a 6v 2835 SMD (idk the brand so going with worst case scenario)? Trying to see if building it out is even worth it?

the C series has a and b model. A C2100a would have an internal pot, and the b has external wires and you add a pot. I believe there is another that uses a fancy PWM controller.
