Helping a hero. Who's game?

You’re definitely older than me then lol :joy: I tried to join at 16 and was denied because I have a visible tattoo of a crucifix whilst wearing a polo shirt. Was a Sikh in a turban that told me this information too for the joke of it :joy: I’ve no issues with Sikhs either most are really good honourable people. Just the irony…

I have a very personal interest in 911. @DatDamDog send me a PM with your PayPal info and I will send some help. And Thank You.

Right guys. @Daytripr69 is the nominated builder. So if possible we could do with sending any donations towards the LED build in that direction. Not sure if you got a PayPal it can be sent to?

@DatDamDog doesnt know whether his skills will allow him to build well enough and pressures on with everyone watching.

We got a nice game plan now

@goatrock appreciate the support too bro

Thanks - just having dinner here in Vietnam haha… Is the driver already sourced if not what would be ideal? I am pretty sure I have a brand new one that I haven’t used HLG-320H-54 I believe it is, although I wont be home until the 21st/ 22nd to see / ship… havent done a strip build so dont have my head wrapped around the technical requirements.

The HLG320h54 is probably more suited to a cree cxb build than strip lights I would think. Vf is around that Mark I think. 560mm eb2 strips run on 19.5v so I don’t think the driver would be compatible in this instance. Although thats a bloody good driver to wish to donate.

Do you say “good morning Vietnam” every time you wake up. I’d probably have to if I was there :joy:

I’ve got a driver here that would give him around the 120w mark but non dimmable etc so may be worth considering trying to get a meanwell XLG 240 L-AB in for the driver. Should be enough power for a 2x2ft tent

I’ll have to look up my pay pal or my wife’s square if I can’t remember my password. I’ll get into that when I get off work today at 1

I’ll look back through the posts here later and see who’s spoke up. Then I’ll see if I can add all members to a group PM so any sensitive information is kept out of public searchable areas

Ah yeah probably overkill too for some reason was thinking 2x4 space. Forgive me for not having read through everything. Been riding a scooter around Dalat and not on the phone much since originally seeing this post earlier today.

I started recently with LEDs myself and love it so far. I am running the QB96 V2s with 2 per each of these drivers. Haven’t tried the COB builds yet.

I have absolutely said good morning Vietnam a lot hahah… and the currency being Dong… dong du dong dong dong.:rofl:

Will think if I may have anything else to offer that may be helpful and if not at least try to throw a monetary donation of some sort once the info is available…

Cheers OG fam you rockstars

I’ve never used the QBs myself so I really wouldn’t know. I’ve never really been fond of the idea of such close spacing of the diodes. I’ve built a fair few COBs but never bothered with the crew because they’re around 3x more expensive a watt here lol.

I’m guilty of flicking my phone onto OG for like a second. Reading a bit then getting sidetracked. I’d be riding round nam myself on a scooter given the opportunity lol.

I’ll make sure to add you to the group PM anyway and however you Wanna helps good enough :grin:

Gonna have the bastard thong song in my head all day now :joy::joy:

@DatDamDog I was there too. I ran for my life, and you ran towards the mess. My hat is off to you. I’ve got no equipment to offer, but I’ve got some seeds for you. Send me a pm if you want some misc. GPS and/or BOG gear.

What will he be running??? Does he need seeds/cuts to get going ??? We can certainly set him up with some good genetics to go along with his NON MARS HYDRO light!!!

I wish i could help. Im trying to work through things myself here. I did get some of those ufs seeds from the server donation a couple months ago. I could send a few of those?

Right on! @DatDamDog is a righteous brother. Indeed a hero. I’ve been talking to him also and am sending him some auto seeds. I’ve got every light I own in tents. I would definitely help by chipping in. What kind of light did you have in mind? Great idea. It’s a great opportunity to help a brother and do something to show our gratitude as a family for a stand up guy. Let me know how to help.
Come on OG Pham.
