I am thinking about upgrading an old Lighthouse hydro Backstar 240 case with new LEDs . I have seen some of the other threads but some of them being a few years old I am not sure if the diodes are the current best options. What would your suggestions be? Can I use strips or just individual diodes if so what are the ones to get? Can I reuse the drivers or should I remotely mount an updated driver?

If I get some good info and end up doing it I will take pics step by step throughout the process and update the thread.

I have 3 old school htg UFOs that I’ve thought about rebuilding. I’d love to see what you do.

Have you checked out the “cheap led thread” theres probably enough info in the first 10 posts to get a general idea of what you can do to modify your lights! Atleast for how to repurpose your driver.

Haven’t heard of blackstar in a while, so I’d imagine you could significantly boost your efficiency with a new driver.
