Hey guys, I am very appreciative of the fast and focused replies. I have received some questions from you all and will be pleased to answer all of them.
NascentOxygen, you asked
Why have you got wires glued to the metal plate atop the ICs? (Photo is not clear.)
there is no metal...
Yeah, Thanks for the replies guys I relized my mistake only after posting. I fixed the problem and am still having troubles so I am turing again to you.
here it is all fixed up
The electrical tape is only temporary.
Heres is it all Lit up.
Even though its not perfect yet...
Hey guys I havn't made a post in a while, but I have an update on this project.
I got all of the supplies I needed to complete the 70 WATT panel so I went ahead and did it
Looks pretty dam good you might say...WRONG!
I was really sure of my method so I wired everything up and...
i wanted to keep all of the diagrams the same style so I made this one up.
I'm pretty sure this is what Deng Tianxiong's diagram would look like.
[SIZE="3"]Please let me know if it is or not.
sorry I am not sure why but I couldn't resize the picture.
I recently got some help from customer service representative Deng Tianxiong of Kutop.com. He sent me
the diagram below, and said this was the method to wire parallel circuits to the power source.
[SIZE="4"]Is the above diagram more correct than the method I was originally going to use...
Thanks for the reply, but could you be a little more detailed. Maybe you could you tell me if
the diagram with each driver separately tied into the output terminals is correct or if that's
not the right way to go about it.
Another question I have for all of the viewers. What...
[SIZE="5"]LED SPECS
RED-1watt/2.0-2.6Volts/350milliAmps/40-50Lumens/620-630nanometers/120degrees

Hey guys I'm about to begin purchasing LEDs. when I'm all done Ill be sure to let you know prices.
But! alas i cannot move forward with this project, because I'm not sure how to wire all of the
constant currant drivers to the 24v power supply.I need to wire 10 parallel connections, and...
Hey guys. Thanks for all the posts and advice, but I have a specific question I need help with.
if you look at the most recent diagram you'll see I'm planning on using
10 constant currant drivers to run each series of 7 LEDs in parallel. Okay got that figured.
Now I'm having issues...
I've finally decided how I'm going to assemble the 70Watt (70x1W) LED array.
That dose not mean that I am ready to build it, not even close. I am posting this method so
that you guy's can let me know if it will work, and it probably isn't the most efficient method
so please, let me know, I am...
looked over all of the responses and tweaked the design slightly.
I am completely new to this and all of the feedback really helped.
Now that I looked into it a little more I see 1 Watt LEDs would ultimately produce the best plants, so I ditched the 5mm and went with these. RED 630nm, RED...
Hey, glad to see people posting on here. thanks rhody that link was pretty interesting,but I
would use this compound as a http://www.platinummicro.com/product.asp?pf_id=TPZ3
I need lessons on wiring LEDs
I have no clue how to power the arrays, or what I would need to power them...
