Hello Fanleaf's, JimmyJames905 and All,

First of all thanks for putting up this great DIY Light. It's my first time stumbling on to DIY. I am amaze with yours work and you got me totally hook onto having one DIY Light. Yet, I am a newbies in COB and Led overall. Please advice me on equipment's selection.

My Goal:

-Build a Light ONLY for Flowering
-Produce the best GPW
-Produce the best per square foot
-As little equipment parts as possible yet max yield for my space
-Space is 4X4
-Light will not be use for Veg
-Where to buy the equipment's
-Equipment ship to USA

I would like to use Fanleaf's 42 lights set up with 14" apart from each lights and 6" away from wall. However, because of my 4X4 space smaller than his Tent, I would need less than 42 lights and more of a square build.

Please advice me on the equipment's list and built, as I do not understand COB 3000, 4000, 5000....therefore I cannot select the right light to max my Flower Yielding. I also would like top quality equipment to ensure it last.

Thanks Fanleaf's, Jimmy and all the experience guys and gals who are willing to give their's advice input.

This were FanLeaf's equipment list. Any changes need to be made to meet my goal above, please advice.
