SolStrip LED lighting: Product info and announcements

[Jellypowered]

Yeah, My strips run hotter than most like to run theirs.
I didn’t end up getting the 480w when I was doing my build, i got a HLG-320h-24A and it tops out around 400w (good batch) or so.

At 300w:

@Jellypowered

The highest i’ve run them is 300w, at 300w the outside 2 strips (least airflow around them) are 94F and the inner strips run 84F with some variation

Think of it like this, if my strips were numbered, 1 and 10 being outside strips, the temps would be as such

1. 94
2. 92
3. 88
4. 84
5. 84
6. 84
7. 84
8. 88
9. 92
10. 94

Can you tell which 4 strips get the best airflow around them? lol

Edit, I should also mention, Ambient temp in the cab is a steady 82F while lights are on. it only fluctuates +/- 1 degree before my Cloudline T4 raises or lowers fan speed

I can tell you now that i’m running them at 385w they are significantly warmer. The strips with the least airflow in my setup are uncomfortable to touch for very long, but won’t outright burn you. The LM561C is a durable little diode, even running close to max operating temp, I see these still lasting longer than any other light i’ve ever used.

The two outside strips on each end in my setup would be the first to burn out, even If in two or three years I had to replace them, i’m out a max of 80$ over 3 years. No biggie to me.
