Over my head!

I have a 35 inch heatsink

 

and ya, we absolutely need to do a frag meet!

 

Here is the Cool white layout

 

You have 6 kinds of LEDs.

Channels:
-MW 48P Dimmable Driver @1.3A
10 Cool white

-MW 48P Dimmable @950mA
10 Royal Blue

-MW 48P Dimmable @950mA
4 Neutral White
6 Blue

-MW 700 Constant @700mA
4 UV
2 Green

Each channel has one single line of LEDs.
This way, you can adjust the color and blend them as well. There might be other options.

Now place the LEDs on the heatsink. For example, Id place


And place the CW and RB as even as possible along the edge..

Makes sense?

 

I just saw your post, wait Tom!! Dont you have a brace in the middle???

 

I do have a brace

 

I have 10 blue, should i use the additional 4? Will that make it too Blue? Looking at the length of the fixture, I could also use more LED's

 

You should leave some space in the middle so the brace wont be in the way or youll waste the light!

You could use the 4 extra blues in the line of UVs and greens. Its up to you, Tom. Everybody likes more blue! But remember, regular blue is more visible to human eyes than royal blue.

 

Should of thought about the brace. I will be upgrading to a 180 come spring and use the 55 as the sump. I will make sure to spread the UV/Gr/Blues out more then

 

The wired LED ares the cool white and Royal Blue. The unwired are the UV. I might get this part done tonight! Soldering has a steep learning curve. Who else has found that the "iron is hot" the hard way?
