Thoughts On Led Lights


Apollo

Recommended Posts

I am working on a plan to build 2 led light setups and I'm Wondering if anyone here uses a similar setup?

 

The flower light I plan to build is a Mean well 185h c700a driver with 6 36volt 100watt citizen 1212 led cobs driven at 33.3 watts the cobs will be a mix of 3500k and 2700k.

 

The veg light will be the same Mean well driver and citizen cobs but in the 5700k and 5000k color.

Well I see that cost is prohibitive at 600-1200 to buy prebuilt led lights, this setup in building is less than 390 bucks for two lights. And I think that the positives of led outweigh the cost.

 

Some of the reading I have been doing says that hid lights put out 35% usable light 65% heat where less put out 65% light 35% heat. These lights in building put out 140lumens per watt.
