Lighting DIY COBs 1000w or very close 2

[Rebel]

Still hoping to get some sort of DIY cob badge for builds just like this. Think about how many people benefited from it and the traffic in general. It deserves a bit of love.

The led tech freak is the led DIY badge...

@Jimmyclone bro question, does rapid-led have good prices or should i be looking elsewhere for lower? Just want to know if they overprice what they sell or not in ur opinion. Thanks in advance!

 

[Jimmyclone]

Rapid is pretty competitive in there pricing, but do have limited options.. Mike is a good dude there, got me drivers at a good price that i couldn't find elsewhere.. Where do u live bud? What country? I might be able to point u in there right direction .
Cheers

Hey Jimmy how's it going man, hope all is going great with the setup. I have basically managed to finished assembling everything except for the dimming of the two drivers. I was hoping that maybe you could walk me through how to wire up the two drivers so that they work with a single potentiometer.

So in my case I'm using the hlg-320h-c 1400b to power up 6 cobs, twice. Each driver powers 6 cobs separately but I would like to dim all 12 cobs if possible using a single pot. Would I simply connect both dimming outputs together and then connect that wire to a 100k ohm pot?

You need a 50k pot and a 5k resistor in series to run 2 drivers at once.
