Lighting DIY watercooled photosynthetic-research COB-LED-Lamp completed build, tell me what u think

What are your thoughts?

Well there is no short answer for this question haha

Considering that i got:

4x CXB3590 3500K 80 Cri CD Bin 2-step macadam in the corners ( list is for 2,4 amps )

and

1x CXB3590 5000K 80 Cri DB Bin 3-step macadam in the center ( list is for 2,4 amps )

running at pretty much 35-40°C ( depending on room temp ) stable on 1,4 amps when the CXB3590 is made for max 3,6 amps,

then my thoughts are that i never considered the possibility that running the COB's on 1,4 A max would perform that great against a professional light ( made with monos only ).

Now lets say i would get me a HLG-480H-C2800B i could increase the light output like this:

So from about 65% rel. lum. flux to about 115% rel. lum. flux thats an increasement of about 50% rel. lum. flux output. If i would do that i would consume more power but produce a lot more light.

At the moment my light consumes about 280W from the wall without the monos, just the CXB's and their watercooling.

The P600 consumes in Veg + Bloom mode about 530W from the wall.

The pic was made with P600 on Veg + Bloom ( 529W + Cooling dunno how much ) and my build on full power ( 280W + 160W Monos ).

So finally the pic shows:
P600 ( 529 W + x W cooling )
Spaceship ( 440W )

I'm impressed

It looks like 40% more light for 50% more power from here. If the cooling can handle it and you need the light sure. I personally would add more cobs as 100 watts each is definitely to much for a standard ceiling height. Photon wise the cobs should be doubling the comp.
