The 35 there is indicator for 3500k. The 4000 is nominal flux, as in 4000 lumens. If you was watch all of the 280mm are 1000, all of the 560mm are 2000, all of the 1120 are 4000. So it’s more or less an indication of what length you have. Actual flux is more like 4500 lumens at 700ma, I think. But you’re definitely picking this stuff up, nice work!

Let me check arrow price and match up currents. Do you want dimming capabilities?

Ok, arrow electronics has them in stock. Real quick slide over there and open an account to get on mailing list. There’s a pretty good chance they will email you discount within next day or 2. Just watch your spam folder.
Arrow will also ship for free overnight and likely have better price on driver than digikey. If you can get an additional 10% off would be even better.
I would like to see you go with a couple more strips if using those. As long as that’s not a big deal?

@dbrn32 - I want to do two strips per 4”x48” so I am buying 4 of these strips. What about drivers??

So 4 strips, 2 each on 2 pieces of aluminum? That will work. Do you want a single supply for all 4 strips, or one driver per pair?

One driver per bar would be better… Thanks.
Two strips in series would run on meanwell lpc-100-1050. Would be about 40 watts per strip on DC side. Probably 90ish watts at wall. Per bar.

Thank you for all of the info
Awesome!
You’ll want like a 10 pack of 2 port wago connectors, a roll of 2 sided thermal transfer tape, and a spool of 18awg solid hook up wire rated for 300v. You’ll need a couple of power cords too, but you can use short extension cords or whatever for those. Let me know if you need help finding any of that stuff.

2-3 times the cost for something like a KindLed. Ridiculous…
