Hi there. Having some good time trying to figure out if this would work:

4x CLU048-1812-3,5k
4x MODULED MEGA 13450
4x 50-2204CT COB Holder
HLG-240H-C1050B

Area 0,48 m²
Any advice on reflector/lens will be appreciated!
Nice choice on components. They all fit together, and make sense.

Citizen stuff is still a little more figuring things out, as far as optics and holders. To use reflectors, you would need to see if that Mechatronix has mounting holes for the ideal Ledil adapter, which needs two more mounting holes. Then you can just use the Ledil.

I used BJB in series and ignored the voltage rating. I don't suggest that, but you could wire your cobs parallel. HLG-240H-54B would be perfect, about 58W per cob, and those heat sinks should be happy to handle that. Then the Ledil reflectors mount directly to your BJBs with no adapters needed.

Last thing, lenses are totally out with Mechatronix unless they make something specifically for that heat sink.

I thought this thread was to answer questions for people wanting to buy/build LED growlights, NOT to listen to a never ending argument ( go ahead, lie to yourself and say its a discussion...) on theory or opposing opinions. For someone new looking for answers, this thread is just about worthless and just about everyone here is to blame for keeping shit going. Ignore the bullshit, don't add to it please?
Do you want a thread that new people WANT to come and read? Because I'll bet a good many come and jump to the last page or two, and after reading say screw this I'll look elsewhere.

How about a new thread call LED Fight Club?..................

Thank you very much @JorgeGonzales. ASAP reply!

Moduled Mega 13450 datasheet points that this 50-2204CT holder will fit. Sadly, i'm not sure if ledil adaptor will fit too. . Considering that I will pay almost 120 usd for shipping to Brazil, buying a ledil that wont fit is a dangerous decision. Have potential to ruin all the project... BJB appears to be on stock, but they ask me to get a quote, not sure if they will reply fast enough and theres only 5 angelina reflectors on stock.
I'm a total electrical noob. All choices came from ideas youb gave to us on your posts.
Considering brazilian energy delivery, I'm afraid that wiring in parallel is a risk. Dunno... maybe for a noob is better to stick with the pack and wire in series as almost everyone.


Right now my cart is as follow:

4x CLU048-1812-3,5k
4x MODULED MEGA 13450
1x HLG-240H-C1050B
4x [URL='http://led.cdiweb.com/PortalProductDetail.aspx?ProdId=571981&fmt=1']50-2204CT
COB Holder[/URL]
4x F13838_ANGELINA-XW
4x 50-2100AN Bulk LED Optics Adaptor for LEDiL Angela
1x Sheet10 eGRAF HITHERM 1205 TIM for Citizen CLU04X (10 pc/sh)
20x M3 x 6 Self-Tapping Screw

Any more toughts, sugestions?

if you read your comments in this order you just contradicted yourself. "Troll" "full of shit" "ignore the bs and don't add to it"

I like some of what you post, but your starting to sound like a troll, maybe you need to re-think your approach. Say what you have to say and move on, screw anyone who doesn't like what you say. If you didn't make your point, maybe its because people only hear/read what they want to believe, not necessarily the facts. Or maybe your full of shit.....Are you here to offer information or to just keep stirring the pot? Don't turn into one of those people I mentioned in an earlier post!

My favorite new word preten-generes the 4-5 guys here that don't like Amare because they don't have 20 page spec sheets where they can spend all day calculating nonsense. Hybrid has done the most important test and that's side by side. I have done just 1 grow with them but have results much stronger than anything I have seen before. We bought grow lights to grow and they work. Not sure why it's difficult to comprehend. As an Amare grower it's upsetting to see people cutting up a good company. I was emailed the entire parts list and there is nothing that makes me question the quality. It actually makes me feel better about the 5 lights I have from them. We don't work for amare or get kickbacks for telling others they perform like they are supposed to. The conversations are to help others. So in helping others the pretengeneres get all pissy since they don't like them. If you don't believe it read the last 100 pages. It's all there.

Summary of last 100 pages:

Your first lights ever on your first grow ever blow away anything you've ever seen!

You love being the center of attention, and manipulate the conversation to make sure you and your Amare persecution complex stay in the middle of it all.

Nobody gives a shit about you or is discussing your stupid lights, but you make sure to remind them the whole world is against you! Truly, nobody cares. You are a disruptive, immature nuisance.

You recently went on a racist tirade against a man of color, deleted from this very thread, and your defense was your wife isn't white. Some of your favorite insults: bitch, faggot, cunt.

And worst of all, you lease a fucking Mercedes.

So we can all skip the last 100 pages and move on. Huzzah.

PS Apparently you can't spell even "engineer" so might want to leave those clever and scathing portmanteaus to literate people.

Amaredamentalists? No, that's terrible. Amaryan brotherhood? Probably too much. Oooh Amartyrs. Not great, but apt.

U guys win. Happy? I can't spend my whole life on these forums chasing quotes and putting others down to make myself look like a riu all star. That's your life and that's great run with it. Be the best riu member possible with the most likes from your brothers and second or third accounts. Someday maybe you can put al those calculations to some use. I often questioned why I was still following 500+ pages of your bullshit attitudes. No longer.

Lose the massive chip on your shoulder about what lights you use and chill the fck out. NO-ONE CARES about how happy you are with your LED lights because we too are all also really happy with our LED lights. LEDs are awesome. Peace

Keep growing keep letting people see your garden. People learn by what you show. Don't get frustrated on the boards, not worth it. Keep up the good work.

Yea people care. People who haven't even been to this site one day may care who likes what and who doesn't. Big part of what goes on here.

People don't want to hear over and over again ad nauseum about how great he thinks his light is... there are many great LED lights out there that grow great weed. I always liked the look of the Amare lights myself, but the incessant shilling from a few anti-intellectuals here has really put me off them. :wall:

I'm also not inclined to worry too much about what someone who has never visited this site might one day care about lol.

This is great keep at it. All of the ones here who point out that I came with an attitude but constantly make snide bullshit remarks looking to get me and others to say something. then point out again that we have a problem. There is no brotherhood and I do not over promote the light. When someone lies about it or talks shit I only reply. I have made many many posts about my timber leds, my other 6 cob 3590 DIY, my 12 2530 DIY, my Cree and cheap epistsr light bars and only the one company has jelous haters. Say you don't like a light because someone saying positive things about it is foolish. Did that make you happy? Let's see how many more will leave ridiculous comments to keep this going. Or you could just keep quiet and all this would end. This forum needs a good cleaning.

Looking to grow one plant in my apt. I want it to be heavy yielder though. It wont be a stealthy closet grow however i dont want the setup taking up too much space. I would appreciate recommendations on the best LEDs to achieve the best quality buds. I would also like to avoid a crazy setup and keep the grow simple so a light that doesnt require much maitenance or extra vents needed would be sweet. Thanks!
