100% man. My last power conversion was in 2016 from a 1K HID to a 400W 8 cob arrangement that Im still using right now lol. Its paid for itself 2x (or more) probably.At some point you just have to satisfied with what you have. Getting good yields why change unless it is a significant power savings.
That's all you can ask for. Just keep running. Those quantum boards put out almost no heat , that's one of my reasons for running them.
Which quantum boards draw 288W each?
Dual boards 288v2
Do you have a link to the place where you got that kit from, if you don't mind me asking

Diy kit ( heatsink and quantum boards)QB288 V2 & Slate 2 Double Combo
Ultra High Efficiency LED Boards for DIY. QB288 has 288pcs Samsung LM301H top Bin Diodes.
It says 260 watt but it is at 288 watts at full power
Oh, 2 of 'em. Makes sense now, lol.
They put out the par. I use 3000k for veg and bloom. I keep mine at about 16 inches otherwise the get light stress from to much intensity.
Almost no heat, only heat is from mean well driver
I love mine. Dense buds
Are you running 4 off of one driver? You should be able to draw 288 watts from just 2 boards.
Or close to 600 watts. My 2 boards draw 288 watts with 2 boards each. Each has its own driver.
That would be a significant increase in intensity
I have some of these in storage, mixed spectrum made for some qaulity plants. Did you try any other combos? Thouie/400 or 600/400?
