Old Reviews HLG Diablo QB

Is that a 260w or is it a 325w? I ask because it appears that they’re getting like 160 W plus out of each board on that new 650W fixture.

This light is intended for a 2x4x6. That's why I went for the XL heat sink.

Its the 260w kit. Its really about 250w because thats the output of the driver they recommend. That new 650w fixture looks intense. 1700ppf @ 24 inches

I'm going to order a couple of these boards to swap out for my China boards in a couple weeks. I just ordered the Hlg 360 elite! It will be here Monday I just checked the tracking and the light is in my town but wont be delivered till monday!

I was thinking that someone like the Migro guy who does such things tested the HLG 65, 100, and 135 Rspec, IIRC, the 135 was actually pulling a bit over 150 W from the wall. My recollection is that the 100 W was pulling about 100 W and the 65 was pulling more like 72 or 73. If your numbers are correct, then it sounds like these new boards can handle a bit more juice than the ones that they were replacing. We know that 650 is running hot because it specifically designed to replace a double ended thousand watt H ID light, whereas I recall that the 550 was designed to replace a single ended thousand watt light if there is such a thing. We know these newer QBs are flamethrowers and this one seems to be more so

HLG is a great company with a bomb product. They are a bit pricey but I feel like if you have taken the time to find them, you already know what your looking for. I have tje 65 4k for my 2x2 tent and that lil mf is great for veg.
