So I would get 1 of these or similar a hlg120-700ma and I would get the A model bc of the internal dimmer it's more expensive but quality is great @ 94% efficiency ect I run all meanwell hlg drivers except for my meanwell idlc 25-700ma for my reds and uv lights as they need minimal wattage to be effective.

Inventronics EUD drivers are another option from Future Electronics that tends to be cheaper then Meanwell. HLG uses them on their 600w models but not to detract from what @Fitzy suggested. I use Meanwell myself.

I didn't realize he was working with such low wattage, I admit to not entirely reading through lol, but the EUD drivers are a minimum 75 watts. With six of those strips, max wattage is 109 at 700ma/26.1fv, so running the six in parallel @ 75% puts him at 3.1a or 19.5fv in series. That's roughly 10 watts per strip, could run an additional two strips to hit 75. I *think* https://www.futureelectronics.com/p...odules-rev/eud-075s280dt-inventronics-8082229 would be the right driver

Either was you nailed it Fitzy! Their reps/engineers have been incredibly helpful in determining needs for some of my projects.

I run 14 on a hlg185a 700ma driver @ 225w @wall and have yet to have any issues and I'm running both the 11in and 22in @Max the 22in setup is a hlg185b 1400ma and a hlg240b 1400ma and I love them I do turn the 450w setup down bc it's in a small area I mean a 2x3 don't need 450w lol but I have it for when I get more room any way he does have a few extras so maybe he will go bigger. Either way options are a great thing reguardless so that info is great
 
@Fitzy i was on digikey going to buy the driver you recommended, shipping is 18e if i spend another 13e i get free shipping so i was looking at strips, i think these are better than what im running currently, could i add 3 of these BXEB-L0340U-30E0750-C-C3 to my setup,
so 3 BXEB-L0280Z-35E1000-C-A3 and 3 BXEB-L0340U-30E0750-C-C3 wired in series powered by HLG-120H-C700A

My new driver arrived today, going to wire it in later on, only thing im unsure of is the built in adjuster. What is it set to out of the box, full, half or minimum? Is it a case of fully turned clockwise will be full power?
