Honestly I didn't know it was too much but I've got it hooked to one fan now smaller than this and it's running. Not wildly crazy or anything.i know some people would try it but i wouldnt use it.too much extra amps and not knowing that driver idk if it will overdrive those fans and make them take off in flight lol
well if its a constant voltage power supply the amps dont matter,the fans will just use what they need.Honestly I didn't know it was too much but I've got it hooked to one fan now smaller than this and it's running. Not wildly crazy or anything.
Alright cool man! Thanks for the help I definitely appreciate it!.well if its a constant voltage power supply the amps dont matter,the fans will just use what they need.
So @Lpferris4 wheres the fixture porn? Let’s see that newly minted fixture burning.Got em hung up today! Working great, thanks again Sixstring!
Yeah, the surplus heat sinks worked but not quite as well as the Arctic 11 plus. So, that is what I am going with. Already ordered a bunch more from NewEgg who happens to be selling them for $7.61 right now so with shipping they are under $10.
I didn't even take formal data on the Arctic 11's because the hottest spot on them never went much above 85F and only about 15F over ambient. The surplus ones were about 25F over ambient.
I completed testing yesterday of the first fixture I built and it is already running some rooted clones in the veg tent.
It seems Cree has always been the gold standard for the industry but I really wonder if these 90 CRI Luminous parts aren't just as good. They seem to be readily available stateside (without having to wonder about what you get from China) and are only $19 for the 50V/150W version.

I went with a mixture of 3000 and 3500 because it seemed like I could get away with running them all the way through. The hybrid I am raising right now (CheeseQuake) does not seem to care one way or another during veg. They grow quite full and almost too short and bushy. So the redish color doesn't seem to screw up my veg cycle at all. Before I made the switch to LED I ran HPS all the way through with no real issues.Is there a specific reason why you went with the 3000k as opposed to the 3500k cxm22 on cobkits?
