They fit in the pic, but I'd pull out a tape measure to make sure the actual boards do. Your support bracing looks to be in the way of the 2 middle ones no matter which way you spin it.

Like this kev. Times 2. The 600 driver has 2 sets of + & - leads. So 4 boards per set of leads.

How much do these boards penetrate into the canopy? These QB got my mind turning. I'm using cobs now how do they compare? Could the be uses in the same fixture?

lets see the fixture. Most likely.

I mean more like height from the Plants. I using luminus cxm 22 I believe. I have to double check but these are about 18 to 24 inches above canopy. That kinda what I'm getting at

With the HLG-600 series driver, I think you'd want to wire all 8 in Series. No need to separate them into groups of 4 unless you're using 2 drivers.

Nevermind, I didn't see Punishers post. Didn't realize the 600 had the two sets of leads. That's pretty cool

If QBs are as good as strips then yes. You'll have to run them harder than softer

U sure? I think I might actually have to get more braces cause they won’t meet. Middle ones are flipped sideways. I think I’m returning my frame and getting what u guys originally told me to get. I thought I got the right stuff but nope. I got the heavy shit

All this fun in one thread

I just meant the way the flat strips are laid out in the pic it just looks like they might not meet the boards and be able to bolt them. You might need to flip the middle ones boards sideways. like the rest.

Hell, then you could fit 9 boards!

 

[High kev]

Ya I think your right unless I get more middle slabs. Maybe put light strips down the middle idk. Getting crazy now

 

[H.A.F.]

Or put a fat COB in the middle with those tall spiky heat diffusers!

No idea what that would do, but it would look cool as all get out!

Not meaning to hijack just had a quick question guys.. I’m trying to put something cheap together for a 2x2 tent.

What is the difference between say the LRS-100-36 and the LRS-100-48? And is it possible to hook a dimmer up to these drivers?

I’m thinking of something along these lines:

QB288 V2 & Slate 2 Single Combo

Ultra High Efficiency LED Boards for DIY. QB288 has 288pcs Samsung LM301H LED

Any help would be appreciated, thanks all!
