Yep. Not going anywhere. You find that humorous? Ever think about buying a sense of humor?

You got nothing besides bullshit. So much bullshit it has seeped into your brain and given you shitty ideas.

Or you could just try and back up your bullshit with some fact. Doubt that is possible.
 
I just upgraded my tent with 3 Meanwell HLG-320H-24A drivers. I found a deal too good to pass up. Those Amazon power supplies were just too "iffy" for me. Now I have a stack of working Amazon drivers I need to repurpose. My 46", 33 volt strips are still using the Amazon power supplies until I find a screaming deal something better. These Meanwells should be good for a 8-9% bump in efficiency, and more reliable.

Yeah, I had to resuscitate a couple of the cheapie power supplies so far. One died a second time, and I think its too far gone for an easy fix. I may start using the Meanwell LRS boxes. A little bit more expensive but still way cheaper per watt than the HLG's and they should hold up better than the no-names..

Doing pretty good, no reason to complain so far. Getting ready to put some Samsung F series strips together, maybe this weekend.

Do you feel they need heatsinking at 1 amp? Looking at possibly grabbing a four-pack of the 56-diode strips from eBay (in 4000k - $20), but I'd like to work out the cooling requirements before I pull the trigger.
 
whatever angle or frame you use to mount it would likely take care of the heat.
You don't need fancy aluminum heatsinks. just some U channel will do.
