Ttystikk's vertical goodness

Hey bro, I have a couple questions I hope you can help out with. Just trying to get my head around the cob and I think I'm there.

If your using that driver to run 4, does that mean you are supplying 50w to each cob, but the output of the led is roughly 150w?

Second question, how many cobs would I need to flower out a 4x4 wall. Thinking of doing the side/back walls of my tent and make some sort of u shaped frame, that hangs vert and have cobs running down them.

I'm thinking you would want two rows per side?

Hope that makes sense

the idea is to run softer to save power & when you compare ratios . the LED puts out more light at the lower rate than the LED does when at full power
ie; you could run at full power but y'd be wasting power with less light to more heat ratios

While this is true, it generally isn't necessary or desirable to take this to extremes, because the incremental cost of more chips takes a long time to pay back in increased efficiency.

4 COB chips x 50W each = 200W. In practice each chip is getting a bit more because B series driver with capped dooming leads, plus driver loses = 225W from the wall.

IF you were to use this same combination, you'd do fine with two on a 4x4. I sized mine for 2x3' of canopy per module and they're all but too strong.

Cheers bro. That makes sense. Did you mean two cob lights per 4x4 wall or 2 x 4 cobs. So 8 all up?

Two of my modules per 4 x 4, that's a total of 8 chips, two drivers and a beer...

In a tree.

I hope this isn't golf, my score would suck.

Ha ha ha, LMAO. I'm amazed that people get more offended at punctuation, grammar, and words even before they get offended at being fucked

Words are words, of course, but I wasn't calling anyone out, just observing the power of the lowly hyphen. Ain't a thing I like about getting fucked unless carnally speaking. Don't make me mad, you wouldn't like me when I am mad. Thankfully these days I am pretty fucking chill. Tty and I had this conversation recently, in fact, haha.

Yes we did. We agreed that remaining calm in this crazy fucked up world is very challenging, but most of the time it's worth the effort.

And the rest of the time it's better than having to hide the body...
