Put a bid on an Led board on eBay for 10 bucks and won it, apparently. Was hoping someone could help me out, not sure if this purchase is a good decision because I will need driver and such and maybe I will spend too much or be out of my capabilities in assembling it. Don't have electrical background but can follow directions and have willingness to learn. But I could be a burden that nobody has time for. These are the eBay photos:

🤔 You need to know several things:

PPFD
Wattage from the wall
Diodes being used

Cheers

On a board like that, yes I believe it is.

For diodes, I mean brand/quality but knowing the array of colors is good too!!!!

The info posted is all I have, not sure how long I can remain in limbo, haven't purchased it yet, don't know if it will be worth the time money and effort (with myself doing the assembly) after it's said and done.

Got the board. Looks like 2 drivers are used based on a photo of the back. It was a start up called DB Cooper Grow Lights. These are the 4 corners. Diodes are Heka. Trying to figure FV and if in series or parallel

Just the boards? Or driver as well? Regardless, $10 is a great price. Hope you get it assembled. Happy

Just the boards he still needs drivers, Plus add 20$ shipping according to the listing so 30$ so far.

Lets see how much 2 drivers cost him now.

Coulda got a complete Mars 1000 for 79$ on amazon.

The seller said a 100 watt 24 volt driver but in the photo I seen 2. Bought 1 mean well at those specs so far. Your right about the price of course but.....I use the info I get, as I get it. Couldn't find advice before I bought it, for whatever reason
