Your driver has certain voltage range where it can supply constant current. For exact number of your cob forward voltage you'll have to have a look at datasheet. If you want to run your cobs at 1400mA wired in series you need to find a driver that will supply that current to the number of your cobs while in it's voltage range. For 4 veros that run at 68V at 1400mA at 50°C you need to find a driver that is gonna supply at least 272V at 1400mA. If it can supply few volts more even better. Check datasheets and do some math.
Regarding driver losses, those happen in the driver before the power is supplied to you cobs. So a 320W Meanwell running at full load is about 94% efficient. The other 6% are being turned into heat in the driver itself and are supplied from the wall. So basically your 320W driver should pull about 340W from the wall.
Those extra volts are gonna be munched by unicorns
U guys really shud start putting this stuff in the correct forum sections
Thank you buddy! I checked vero's data sheets and they didn't have anything for the C's running @1.4a that's why I was wondering if buying something with a little extra volts would be bad. You answered my question perfectly thank you sir.
