Lighting Orrganics DIY build help wanted!

I contacted the seller to enquire about there whereabouts, they could only confirm they were in transit and instructed me to contact them if they did not arrive after the next week. Come the Monday morning after a week i flicked them another email letting them know. Their reply went along the lines of sorry for wasting your time heres a refund. So i waited a month, lost $2 on currency flux and have no cobs haha.
Cobkits? Shit! He works full time and does this on the side. He was sick for awhile then got feet upon feet of snow. I waited weeks for mine to arrive but luckily he threw in a few extra cobs. I rarely buy from him now unless it's a rare temp cob but his prices are spot on.
If anyone wants to dump hundred grand to buy stock in cobs and is willing to profit 3 bucks a piece this could keep you busy. I'd be your number one as far as sales goes lol.

No they weren't from cob kits, an eBay seller from estonia. Their store name should be in one of the previous photos. I wasnt suss on the seller because i had seen them posted somewhere around AFN diy threads as an example of good citi prices before.
I know time is precious but would you mind doing me a favour by having a quick peak at this link?

Watts law states that P=V x I where P = Watts, V = voltage, and I is Amps. So, unless I fumbled the math, in the example above it looks like they would end up being 42 watts. I'm no cob expert, but I know you don't want to drive them to the max.
Exactly! I'm not going to pretend I'm proficient in knowledge when my safety is at steak! Thanks you for your help MateraGaia! That does sound about right, looks i'll need seven of those model to draw 200 from my driver, works out to a bit over $150
@AussieBogan welcome aboard the diy train! I thought I'd reply here to keep your thread tidy. I actually placed an order yesterday, same as the previous mentioned. Some wago connectors arrived today and next up is heatsinks. I'm planning to buy some standard active cooled either one per cob or what ever I config on my aluminium sheet. So were making progress, slowly but surely
Sounds like you're on track! Looking forward to seeing this project put together ... I'm a lazy cunt and thought about just getting a mau5 kit, haven't decided yet, bit pricey but in the long run it won't be as expensive to run compared to hid!
I loved the idea of the mau5 kit when I first found it but the price was just to high, for my current circumstances.
