DYI 48 Cree x 3w led mounted setup CHEAP!

I purchased this a few years ago from bill at at reefled.com. There are two heat shields with 24 x 3w LEDs mounted on each one (48 LEDs total) each heat shield is roughly 8"x 12". It comes with three ELN-40-68D drivers. It is mounted on two aluminum rods about 36" long. IT IS A COMPLETE SET UP.

Last year one of the LEDs broke in which the fixture stopped working. I replaced the led and it turned on but the fuse kept on blowing. I took it to someone's house to help me fix the fixture but they didn't have the time to help me. During the transport a few more wires detached. I am not very electrically inclined and gave up on it and purchased two led fixtures. It may need a few LEDs to be replaced.

THE FIXRURE IS NOT CUTRENTLY WORKING.

I put more then $700 into this thing a few years ago. I an asking $200 for the setup. Please lmk if you have questions.

Is that the one we made? if so thats a real good price. the wires are a easy fix for who ever snags this. and replacement leds are only a few bucks each.

He might still have this spoofer. I sent him a text for you so he can check his page. He's a busy guy, hopefully he logs back in soon or sees my text.

Thanks for getting back to me, but I have pursued another lead. I will follow up if this doesn't pan out.

Jumping on this after it has sat for a while but if you still have it do you have the build sheet? I am curious which LED's you have on it.
