The newer Mars300 are 60x5w, actual watts 135w or so. 2 x 55-100v .7A drivers(some variances between different 60x5 models I had, but all similar) the older Mars300 100x3w should have 3 drivers in it, maybe 4, can't remember, but they are the same .7A drivers. Similar drivers in the Mars 2 series also.
Good for 1 x 72v cob, or 2x 36v cobs. You can also use up a little of the spare voltage with the 18v cxb15 series, I did in 2 of mine, with parallel to cut the amps down on the smaller chips.

What case you gonna put these in? You revising a current light or making a new one from scratch?
Mars reflector 96x5 I have 2 of these.... For the rectangle surprisingly Heatsink was a big issue. I was only able to get the same 4.3" wide by 20" long so it might be rough to fit 6 cree in that area.... I have a piece of thin aluminum that I'm putting down then mounting the heatsinks to that as I really don't have much of a choice..... You'd have 1 ugly light without the aluminum sheet....
You could do it... it is really easy

as soon as I have one burn out on me I will give her a try. I run 24/7 my lights and have not had one failure in almost two years. I think putting these cheaper leds on timers shortens there life span incredibly. I have three apollos three 300 watt chinese leds and a 1200 watt cob all still working great
so are you going to do 3 72 volt or 6 36 volt crees?
Dont know initially planned the 6 36v but with my space not sure.... I was told they need to be mounted in the center of the heatsink. 20" length 4.3" wide heatsink I have.
