    Well those are all Cree, that I've been linking to. That's all RapidLED sells. I was trying to get the heatsink, fan, and dimmable driver in one package. I think that is it (biocube 14 dimmable kit).

    This retrofit kit will fit seamlessly into your existing Biocube 14 hood (once gutted), and attaches via 4 screws. With our plug and play system you will not need to solder. Please note you will need a reef controller or potentiometer + 10V AC Adapter to run the dimmable driver.
    4.25" x 9" Heatsink drilled/tapped for 12 LEDs and 4 installation holes
    6 Solderless Cool White CREE XP-G LEDs
    6 Solderless Royal Blue CREE XP-E LEDs
    1 Mean Well ELN-60-48P dimmable driver or 1 Mean Well ELN-60-48D dimmable driver
    2 Plug-n-Play 7 LED Terminal
    1 Driver Jumper
    1 Terminal Plug
    1 Terminal to Terminal Jumper (8")
    1 tube of Thermal Grease
    1 x 60mm Vantec Stealth Fan
    1 x 12V AC Adapter
    2 water repellent wire nuts (plus 2 non-water repellent wire nuts)
    1 power cord to attach to the drivers (US + Canada orders only)
    7 feet of black bulk wire
    7 feet of red bulk wire
    1 zip tie
    Screws (for the LEDs and to mount the heatsink to the hood

    I forget the difference between ELN-60-48P and the ELN-60-48D dimmable drivers.

    If you can only run 8 LEDs on a single driver, why doesn't the kit come with 2 drivers?

    They are rating XM-L's not XP-E or G...We run 12 XP-E or G per "P or D"

    Oh, sorry. I suppose I should read over better.

    The XML's are the newer Cree diodes, aren't they?
