    Rahz' notes and observations

    Cheap and Cheerful DIY using Citizen cobs

    1812@75w=43%eff=150ppf 150ppf is 600 ppfd for a 50x50cm(2.7sqft). Veg with @45w=47%eff=100ppf 100ppf is 400ppfd for a 50x50. Any suggestions on dimmable 700-1400ma and 55v drivers?

    Cheap and Cheerful DIY using Citizen cobs

    Maybe then the lpc60-1050 will run a 1812? Just wondering... For a micro grow, 1 plant with a grow area of 50x50 or a 300liter tonel, a 1812@50w is too much? Cheers
