We use the Meanwell HLG series drivers exclusively. This is there top of the line driver and features an IP67 design and high efficiency (around 94-95%). We do design our lights for that sweet spot of intensity vs efficiency - with the different lights.

Thank you Dan!!:smoking:

If anyone doesn't know what an IP rating is here is a chart to help!

@RainDan kinda along the lines of bigsmo and rayukis q's do you think autoflowers require less light intensity (is this ppfd?) than photoperiods?

Hello @sanguine

That is a common question - of all the growers I have spoken with, as well as agriculturists, claim both photo and auto should require similar amounts of power. We have many autoflowers growers that have completed multiple runs showing the efficacy of 900-1000 µmol/m²s for flowering auto and photo flowers.

Hello @sniper
Good question - and we get that question a lot - there are ways to reuse parts of the Mars units in COB retrofits. Judging by the specs printed on the driver, for instance, @ .6A output you should be able to drive 1-2 COBs and create about 50-100 watts.

So if I was to go with 6 of the 50w cobs I could get by with using just 3 of the drivers from the Mars light? Or would I use 6 drivers 1 for each cob?
