Thankfully with the solderless LED's and Makers heatsink I won't put it off and be lazy about making the changes. Link to comment

HOW DARE YOU! That's a whole lotta white, but you like to do your high noon thing. Other than that looks good. Why are you going with pucks instead of Meanwell LDD? Link to comment
Deckoz2302 Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Lol well I may still go with the ldds. But I gotta make an eagle file and find a local board printer. Also do you know where to get 56volt power supplies? Or 48volt? Lol if I could find a power supply it would cut my driver/power cost from 389 to 180ish Link to comment

Deckoz2302 Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 I need one more along the lines of 10amp if I go with the ldds and able to product 450 watts. Fixture shouls be around 400 but I like to give head room. If I do pucks ill use steves 16.8amp 24-28v psu Also I need a board that holds approx 10 ldds for 8 channels. Link to comment

I'm just going to use two power supplies when I build my new array. Higher-wattage 48VDC power supplies get expensive very quickly. Link to comment
AlanM Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 !! I wish I'd seen that power supply before I bought the Meanwell with identical specs for twice as much. Link to comment

AlanM Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 That's what jedimasterben was talking about, I think. The higher wattage ones get expensive. Link to comment
SeahawkReefer Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I'm doing a similar setup, but only a single 18" with less leds, above my 10 gal... Think cant wait to see your setup!

I'm doing a similar setup, but only a single 18" with less leds, above my 10 gal... Think cant wait to see your setup! Try 12" all @ 500ma. Im sure jedi will concur 2cw 2nw 8rb 1 405 1 430 1 495 2 470 1 660 Link to comment

Im sure jedi will concur 2cw 2nw 8rb 1 405 1 430 1 495 2 470 1 660 ^ what he said, but add more violet. A 10g tank is 0.155m2, so that is about 7w of 400-440nm light, so that's 6x 430nm and 2x 405nm. Don't have to use that many, but that's the upper ceiling for a 10g tank to make sure you're not adding too much light. Link to comment
SeahawkReefer Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Please tell me that's a joke... Solderless cree leds and was thinking the 18" Makers heatsink but if I could fit everything on a 12" then even better... http://www.nano-reef.com/topic/319617-10-gallon-full-spectrum-led-build/ Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Ok, I thought you meant the same numbers, I didn't see the 'with less LEDs' part Yes, everything will fit on the 12". You'll need extra screws and whatnot, but they'll fit and be more than adequately cooled, no problem. 1 Link to comment
SeahawkReefer Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Thanks I wasn't sure the 12" was big enough, but it'll save $25 so cool, thanks for the info... Link to comment
Deckoz2302 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 He wont need extra screws if he does what I said but changes to 6 430 and 2 415s it comes to 24 leds...12 inches provides enough screws for 25leds Which still seems like alot... Link to comment
jarob Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Hey Deckoz or Jedi I've got a question! I've been running my DIY LEDs over my tank for a few months now and love it but want to add a few more LED's to it. Im currently running this on my 20"cube: 6RB 2CB (plus two more from the cow's) 4NW 4TV (steves) 2ocw (LEDgroups) Im using 4 steves drivers and steves 200w switching power supply, all controlled by a typhon controller one 1000mA single running the whites one 1000mA double running one strand of 4RB's and one strand of 2RB and 2CB one 700mA single running the 4 TV's one 700mA single running the OCW's What can/should I add and what driver can I add it to? I was thinking 2x430's added to the 700mA TV driver, 4 more RB's added to the double driver 2 on each strand. Let me know what you think I should do?! Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 What do you want the light to end up as? Do you want it more blue looking, just want more light overall? 1 Link to comment
jarob Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Perhaps both? More light and a little more blue. What I really want is my gold torch and my zoas to POP. Right now my typhon is running the lights at: whites 95% blue90% TV94% and OCW94% so they are running pretty high. Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Well, you can fit up to three NW on the NW strand, one violet on the OCW strand, two violets on the violet strand, and up to three blues on each of the blue strands. So you can do a lot. Link to comment
jarob Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 MMM I like the sound of pumping all that out! Do you like the "hyper violets" or should I stick with Steves TV's? Link to comment
