Hard to believe someone would take a light with a spectrum that has set multiple world records for the highest yield on a single cannabis plant, and then replace that spectrum with a generic white COB LED that puts out 1/3 the PAR per watt and runs over 100 degrees hotter. Congrats on taking a great product and making it junk.

i have a few of these very similar lights i got from amazon about 240w 9 and 12 puck design they were called znet this is awesome solution 2 balance spectrum i love the 3d printer design 2 make it look better thats half the battle that crisp Finnish look thanks Growmau5

@loganleborgne420 6 лет назад

Hey Growmau5! Glad you're back on YT!! Very usefull video for those who didn't have the chance to meet you a month before cxb3590 was released 😉😁! This kind of light changed the way I grow! I remember asking you about how to spread my COB the best way then asking you if hundreds of diodes wouldn't be better but it was too many soldering at this time! Now it is different so I don't know what to do for my next DIY built!??? What is the best DIY led now? Is it always Cree cxb3590? Is Cree will release CXC??? What would you build today!?? Have a lifted one and lots of good vibes from France

@loganleborgne420 6 лет назад

Martin Gailhofer hi! Thanks! You talk about the Samsung I guess! It is pcb with 288 small mid power led? How many watt is this ? How many mA? And the size of the pcb!? I saw 220lm/w!!! Wow my 180lm/w seem poor in comparison! I guess it is 0.2w diodes so 288x0.2 = 56w??? If I am correct and if i can add a potentiometer I will use one over each square meter! I saw it for 43 €! 144€ for 2 with the driver and everything else is it sound fair? Have a lifted one and lots of good vibes from France growers!

@niklashultkrantz7766 5 лет назад

Great video I'm I about to do something similar. To first get a heat zink then a driver then a fan. After that I will search for the Led chip. The problem with the led chip is that there are so many various models and generations so it is difficult to decide what led chip to go for. I would have probably one full spectrum 100w led chip/plant and use one unit per plant so the distance to the plant and position of the light can be dialed in more accurate then if a bigger unit is trying to cover a few plants.

@drymoonproperties 6 лет назад

I bought a cod upfront it was Chinese made that being said I have watched growmau lots and thought I made a good decision but plants didn't do well and seven months later it smoked, shorted out and was cooked. I did for once when I bought it did buy the insurance offered thankfully i did they paid me back in full less taxes so I still came out okay but I won't ever buy another cob but would build one because of growmau videos if I am doing well enough health wise that is i am losing the use ok my right hand due to arthritis so doubtful that will ever happen having my eighty second surgery the 30th my personal feelings if you don't ever build the education is priceless THANKS GROW

@bradm8150 4 года назад

I'm wanting to mod my burned out leds with quad/triple/double or even single 5w diodes. I want them amped up though. I need a little guidance on power supply units. I have all kinds of power supplies for 3d printers, they appear to be the same ones but its hard to tell. The power supplies would have to be quite large and it looks like it goes from these adapter looking ones into 3d printer looking ones when you get higher power.

@shane6845 4 года назад

I'm looking to build a 4 LED setup into a high bay reflective hood (16 inches in depth). Been looking around at different LEDs on the web and amazon then came across this video. Broadened my view on these newer chips (I build my own first LED grow light about 4 years ago with 10W red/blue chips). It worked but the chips started flashing; 'Im assuming due to heat or just low quality chips. This application is for a 4 x 4 grow tent. I also considered 60 or 10 degree lenses for better light penetrating, but settled on the metal reflector instead ($25 out the door on walmart website) and want to use 4 x 100W chips. I'm constantly going to the drawing board to find a good way to get good light penetration from a single light source/focal point. I enjoyed this video!

@biggav5555 6 лет назад

@williameftposco 4 года назад

ive built my own light with a similar design to this. i used 6 3500K cobs and 2 monochromatic cobs to "boost" the spectrum. i can still see my plants in true color but they also get that extra blue and red that this "full spectrum" cobs offer.

@rebeckavogel6480 5 лет назад

Hey how about adding some thermal grease to the contact surfaces? some regular PC grease (I think everybody should have some at home) should help getting your chip temps down even further. Oh and since we're at it, a CRI of 80 does not seem to be very good in emulating sunlight. Is there an improvement to be had over a CRI 80 LED, if I was using a like CRI 98 LED chip?

hello...would I regret taking the reflectors off my LED light? (the plastic cone strips on the bottom of the light base) does it help the LED at all? will humidity damage the insides if I remove it? the led strip seems to be coated. Also the LEDs (96x2) doesnt seem to have a heatsink on the back...just a loud fan inside, should I set heatsinks? do you have recommendations to replace fans for quieter ones? (this is 12v x 0.15a apparently) or do you have tips to silence cheap fans maybe... any help would be great

Hello, i have an issue with my grow light, I have a 480 2100B meanwell driver with dimmer knob and when i turn it past halfway it started to flash on and off, So i took the dimmer off to check if that was problem and the light did not come back on but just flashed only, So i put the dimmer back on it so i could at least us some light at the moment, Any help will be much appreciated thanks very much. I have it on 15amp wall plugin alone, and it did not do this until like the second day it came on with timer and as fine also at that point but about an hour later it started flashing above half power?

I want to run a cree cxa3590 72 volt 3500k or a free cxa3070 3500k Please make a recommendation on an efficient cob that will work with my current driver if the two listed above will not work.
