New Light For 2x4

Well decided to upgrade my light for a 2x4 tent since i was running a mars hydro sp150 and a 600w blurple (epileds and cree diodes )did job but with mixed lighting and power and well in all just needed an upgrade.After a few days looking around and looking at my brothers 2x4 light a cpiderfarm copy yet has meanwell driver and samsung lm301b diodes and dimmer runs great for his 2x4.
Bottom line is I got a quantum board with a meanwell driver and new samsung LM301H diodes delivered today hung today will post more pics of a grow in time but for now 2 pictures below.


What is your opinion if anyone uses the new diodes at all.
Edit; reason forgot wattage of light it’s 200watts

Just curious what did that light cost? So that’s basically a spider farms knock off?

Looks good. I think you will like the results. Be careful how close you get it to your plants. I burnt my leaves when I first got my quantum boards.

My brother loves his even though both ours are knock offs I accept of spider farmer they still have top notch diodes and driver hope to save on electric as well.

LM301s (B or H) are a great diode. Matched with a proper brand name driver - you are good. :sunglasses: :+1:
OK, they must be using copper clad aluminum PCBs but I haven’t seen one that doesn’t.
