These are the chips that StephenJ and robincnn @ Horticulture Lighting Group were consulting on with their new partner, Samsung, right? If so, cool - they’ve been hyping this for a year, so it’s nice to see it come to fruition.
Like you were talking about @Baudelaire, where’s the full spec and datasheet? I also hope they don’t see this as a way to gouge the “horticultural” market. If so, I’m plenty fine with DIY strip builds from any of the current midpower white options, or the awesome 3ft long 800 chip boards coming out of Meiju. Either are so much cheaper, with the potential for better spread, than higher density options. The Meiju options, specifically, represent a real solid entry in the market because of their high QA standards and reliable bins.
