There's no different.. because i was trying the lights on before installing the dimmer.
Just ordered 5 pcs. 4K to my second frame, and that would be with a normal 100k potentiometer.
Then i maybe could see the difference

Yeah lol thats a big tent so probably why it looks dimmer.take the reflectors off and see how much more spread of light you get

I dont know bro because this is my first time with a diy light myself so i am still learning.i dont know what height they should be yet so just experimenting with different heights at the moment.i have mine 3 feet above my new girl and she is not stretching alot so i know the light is strong enough
Do you have a watt meter or volt meter? I think I got it. Just checked back at the pictures and think they were wired in parallel vs series.
It looks like each cob has a positive and negative going to it.
Not the best picture but it's the best I could find.
The driver red only goes to the first cob. The negative of the first cob goes to the positive of the second. They continue this way till you have one negative left and that hooks to the drivers black wire.

Yes I get it. The only other option is to try the watt meter. It should be blinding bright at 190 watts
