Ive got two of the 100 watt models. I think what im mainly wondering is how hard are the crees being driven. Any help? Its cri80 cd bin cree 3950 meanwell driver. Idk. Is there a way to tell without opening it up?Thanks. Amazon product ASIN B07D3M3X6Q
 
Do an amp draw w a volt meter or use a killawatt. In a good environment w good genetics u can get 2-3 oz off of it maybe more. Cree is good shit for sure
 
Thanks! I'll see about doing just that. As far as environment goes, its pretty ideal. I just have to master hempy buckets. I've only grown anything in soil. I overwatered at first, which was bad. Compound that to the fact i started seeds in OLD DAMAGED rockwool, and the seeds were frigging tiny, I was off to a SLOW start. In the back of my mind I was like, did I get ripped on the lights? But no, theyre authentic Im sure. Shout out to Original sensible seeds for replacing my seeds, whether i got a pack of runts or its just the strain idk but they were tiiiiiinnnyyy little buggers, and i partly put blame on them for the slow start, righteously so. A good seed has to have more stored energy IMO. Im sure some might say size doesn't matter, and you could use tobacco as an example, but wacky tobaccy is different, and these were the smallest viable seeds IVE ever seen. Just anemic. But they sent me a new pack ASAP with an extra seed too! Funny part is there was one runt in that litter too, which is weird. Ive only ever grown bagseed before, and i have a feeling certain strains have genetically inferior seeds, which is just a by-product of so much crossing and breeding , also not enough selection of mothers and fathers that are picked for seed size. Kind of a bummer, but hey, theyre growing now, so it aint too bad. I got 3 auto black jack herer from OSSB and 2 pyramid seeds auto northern lights, 1 OSSB critical diesel , and 2 midweek song chocolate lopez, which im just gonna veg until the autos are done. Black jack herer just sounded like such a kickass strain. Oh did you mean 2 to 3 per light? Yeah, right? Thats what im thinking. Also, its my first auto grow.Thanks for the reply.
 
Deville, thanks, i see that now. I thought it was drawing 100 watt to be honest. Darn. Im going to see if i can increase it. Is that possible ? Thanks for the help.
 
It seems most meanwell drivers can be adjusted! I will be so happy if I can get some needed extra power out of thse lights! I had a feeling something was up. Ill just move them closer for now.
 
Woohoo! So I got a quick reply from the seller. He said it CAN be adjusted to have a higher output, but not to exceed 100W. The exact model is Meanwell LPC-60-1400. Now I just have to figure out how to do it. I'll likely need one of those killawatt things and a screwdriver. But i'm very newbish guys, so IF you can help, I hope its not too much trouble. I'll get cracking on this soon though and get my 70 well deserved watts lol
 
Nevermind. I'm returning them. The driver has fixed output. Only 58 watts. Not worth it.
