Yes I love the boards can’t wait to start using them. I have a close by follow hobbyists n friend got him set up with 2 of the 260’s and man the difference is amazing as far as weight and density. If I have a few leftover that’d be cool too as I may put in veg cab as well.

I agree. You certainly have enough drivers to power the whole 4 pack, so it makes sense.
Once you get them I would put one board on each side of 260 kit and then you can probably flower at 70-80% on that. You can also build a frame to have all as one fixture, or run as 3 independent lights. Up to you

Would definitely be doable that way. if driver will power both I could make it work

Worst case scenario is I am only a month delayed

It will. You just have to wire boards in parallel. I would prefer you had a multimeter to set voltage properly, but it will fly. When you get it built we’ll just have you eyeball it, should be close.
So I could just build a frame from aluminum angle for each? I think I’d like to separate to be able to raise and lower as my end goal is perp and will have various stages of flower using just a few plants.

You can do that. Or grab some of the wire hangers available on Amazon and just hang the boards from that.

May have accidentally saved a buck with the incorrect driver to run both, lol. Will get back to ya when Heatsinks arrives. I appreciate ya!

That’s exactly the reason I mentioned the hlg-240 in first place.

One last stupid question. Does the driver itself get physically hot in addition to the sinks? Like can I screw it to wall and then run wires to boards?

The driver itself will get hot. Be sure to mount to some sort of heat resistant material if you’re mounting outside the tent

Would you do me the favor and post the link to the boards you recommended? Thank you sir!
They get warm, not hot enough to start a fire though. Your best bet is to mount it in a location that will have some air movement. However you also dont want your output wiring any longer than need be. So try to find a happy medium.

Looks like they are currently out of stock on Amazon. Check with hlg.

Thanks for your help. What’s an average price on those?

Like $120-$130 for the 4 pack.
Awesome! Thanks again.

With only about an amp flowing through something like common stranded 18 gauge wire, I would not be worried about having the driver mounted separately from the LEDs. 10 extra feet of 18 gauge is just going to drop 73 millivolts at 1 amp.
