Quick DIY Build 2x QB132 150W

@Rosinallday ,

Absolutely, I'm using the EF model as in the link, with the Samsung diodes. I can't vouch for the FS Model with the cheaper diodes though.
I've used a single set in a 2x4 with good results. I now have two sets +300w of cheapo leds in a 5x5 and it's more than enough. 3 sets in a 5x5, 720w total would be perfect for flowering.

@WillieP ,

I've been researching this a bunch lately. The absolute best deal is found here:

Amazon product ASIN B08C7DYMR9
Been running 2 sets of these for the last couple years, with zero complaints. I'm looking to outfit a 5x10 with 6 sets of these soon, as it is still the best deal I can find.

WOW, that does seem like a hell of a deal.
Thanks for the heads up.
Cheers,
WillieP

Theyre 96 diode Samsung lm561 sunboards from growdaddyleds.com
That's my price when I buy bulk.
I bought em to trade for genetucs and the dude flopped. I put em on a cc so im losing money every month I dont pay for em.
I'm hijacking this thread to try and cover my ass on an endeavor, sorry mtrain.
I have enough lights. I need to move these. I will build it and ship it if anyone is interested. Thanks in advance!

Got the light hung yesterday. I think every square inch is getting good coverage now. After hanging everything, I realize I could easily fit another one of these at the other end too. Total of 650w... why not? lol. It'll only cost me another driver, so $50-60.

this space is a little more than 5' by a little less than 3'. HLG says the 350R can flower a 5'x3' space and indeed it can. The corners were the only spots that needed some help. But looking at it now, I might as well just add the other one since I have plenty of space to fit it.

How insane is that 350R? I'm completely loving mine. Got it at 6/9 on the dial and Its cranking lux ?

It blows me away. I love the material it's made out of too. Feels nice to the touch and everything is so beefy and clean on it. My eyes can't tell a difference in brightness until you dial it down to 7/9. So I leave it there backed off a tad so it doesn't get hot running all out at 100%. Doesn't seem like it needs to. Wish I had a meter to check things out but I'll probably dial it back a notch now with the added fixture.
