Its no problem bro,keeps the thread moving.Thanks, I will try not to ask too many questions.
In that part of my grow im up to about 2200w of cobs now.same space used to have 5000w of hps.when im done with this side it will be around 2800w maybe 3000w so im already saving a shitload of power and a/c usage :)how many watts is that??
What size space did you replace the 5000 Hps for 3000 led in? and what was the cost to build them?3000 so what is that like 60 cobs?thanks sixIts no problem bro,keeps the thread moving.

i cant let the cat out of the bag just yet lol.but those flat bars i had cut for me at Alro mfg in ann arbor,but it was not cheap so i decided to get a plasma cutter.the new bars might be on display here this weekend,i had to send them out to have bends put on them for strength.as long as this is taking i shoulda paid the 6k and got my own bender to lol.but because the new design is 8th in plate i cant just use a harbor freight bender on them haha.but yeah the scrap is getting used for driver straps and connecting bars to attach multiple bars together. so with this cad program im using theres only about 1 to 2 pounds of scrap per 4 x 8 sheet of aluminum :cool:six ....
does one of your buddies run a machine shop ? if not, what are you paying for the cutting and sheets of metal. are you collecting the scrap ?
not to side track you from your forum but its nice to see other michiganders rocking it out... funny i work at a grow shop here in genessee and we honestly dont get many people coming in about led's yet..
24' x 32' x 10'h insulation is going to be blown in poly,R40 walls and R60 ceilings, after i wire the piss out of it lol.i'll take lots of pics bro :woot:
Foam board is not cheap, and the r value aint shit.Wouldn't it be cheaper (and easier) to buy 4 x 8 sheets of foam board from Lowes/HD?
No man it would be around triple the price plus i would have a million seams everywhere lol.this stuff fills every nook and cranny,its how they are doing a lot of the new construction here in MichiganWouldn't it be cheaper (and easier) to buy 4 x 8 sheets of foam board from Lowes/HD?
Are one of the cobs loose on the left of the last pic or do you have them where they have adjustable angles?Put up another bar and shuffled some stuff around. Plus i got rid of another 600w hps :) the new bar has the new sstx square heat sinks from ngl,i shoulda pushed em harder.i have those cobs running at 63w each and these puppies are cool as a cucumber.

No i made that fixture a lil different and its 4 x cree @ 75w each and they swivel because of how i mounted them.so i had those 2 cobs so close together with how i mounted the last bar so I just adjusted those other cobs a lilAre one of the cobs loose on the left of the last pic or do you have them where they have adjustable angles?
