Since your the expert.. lol (I understand... but am clueless at the same time Hahaha )
Can you dim only the blues or whites, or since they are hooked the way you have them, you can't differentiate the two colors? Thanks, and this is helping tremendous amounts! !!

Very helpful!!
One more question. I haven't done my individual led research yet, but arnt there 2 different popular blue led colors? Are they the same watt and volt? Can you mix, say 50-50 or 70-30 royal and the other blue? Or do they require different stuff? I'm asking, because if they are compatible, why not mix them for a better color variation? Thanks!!

Good stuff, thinking of rebuilding my Solaris that has been sitting in the basement, got tired of PSU's, and LED banks going dim or dying ..... but I do have a DIY setup on my 210 right now 120LED's and thinking maybe this will work so the question is:
What is the max per Driver: Original does 5X 5 plugs, but i saw that the output of course is less than that of cree, so thats why you went with 4 LED per string? I also noticed you did 4 totals strings instead of all 5? Since you are able to run 4 LED's per string do you think i could get away with running 5 Strings of 4? Assuming that each string puts out the same Vf, and A. Sorry, i am terrible at the electronics and barely got away with doing my 120LED rig lol. thanks.

Hi Joe,
How's your SOLARIS unit doing? Would you be able to share new pics? I was hoping you can show the power supply unit and also the actual LED unit. Thanks! |
