being u found it on amazon, i doubt it is any good.! cheap lights end up costing u more then good lights.!! i m biased tho, i m poor and do not like wasting money.!

Don’t do it @roaddog those driverless COB’s really are junk. Extremely inefficient.

@OldSkunk built a pretty extravagant light out of them. Had problems with keeping them cool and low performance. Eventually got into more quality cobs.

@dbrn32 Heat control seems to be the major deficit in their construction, but my son is urging me to try water cooling. That should be interesting on a high voltage, cheaply made product but more on that later. Also, I would hope the sellers understanding of opto-electronics is better than their command of the english language.

@dbrn32 Is it possible to go to the posts by @OldSkunk?

You bet [image] DIY driverless COBs test update Lighting I’ve been running a test fixture with 110v AC 50watt full spectrum driverless COBs for about 10 weeks.

[IMG_20171014_150120568] When both lights are running with no cooling they get to 200°F. With cooling fans blowing 25cfm on them, temps are around 120°. I have had 2 lights fail due to high temps. A much bigger … [image] How many of you growers are using driverless COBs Lighting I’ve been using these cheap “full spectrum” Chinese driverless COBs for a while in a test setup. They don’t have the high intensity that the more expensive DC voltage COBs, but they can be moved closer to the plants without harming them. Surely I can’t be the only one using these. The only info I can find about them is they put out a good light spectrum for flowers.
