OK, so after much dithering, a little encouragement and a lot of research, I have decided to build a DIY COB LED lighting system for my compact stealth box. The footprint is approx 0.75x1m and the box is only 0.8m tall inside so I decided to go for 6 COBs spaced out across the entire ceiling to try and maximise coverage. I've ordered the LEDs, driver, holders, heatsinks and a power supply for the heatsink fans.
Parts:
6 x Cree CXB3070 COB LED arrays 3500K
Mean Well HLG-240H-C1050B driver
TE Connectivity holders
6 x Arctic cooling Alpine 11 pro rev.2 PC CPU cooler
Generic 12V 1A power supply for the fans
Numbers:
1050mA current
~35V/COB total 210V driver rating 238V
35V*1.05A*6=220W driver rating 249.9W
~6000 lumen per COB total 36000 lumen
Cost - over twice original lighting budget
I plan to update as the parts arrive and I get to the bodging, hopefully the information will be useful to someone. Oh and if I mess up hopefully someone can help me haha. Feel free to ask me questions, although I can't promise I will be able to answer fully or indeed correctly... This is a learn-as-i-go affair.
