New Jarduino build gets started

[daplatapus]

Ya, I was thinking of just ordering some more. I think I paid like $6 shipping included for this one. Maybe I'll find another use for it
Starting shoving stuff in a box over the last couple days. Geeze you run out of room quick! Got my hands on an old ADT panel box and thought I could use it. It may get too small. Still have to make up my fan circuit board and get it in here too.

What's the model number on the Meanwells your using to drive the LEDs?

There's a mix of LDD 1000's and 700's then those 2 HLG drivers

How much do the LDD boards sell for?

[daplatapus]

I think it's somewhere around $5-$6 per board after shipping

Just test fired my 12 - 3W 3000mA XM-L's.... HOLY COW BATMAN! Thought I'd ignited a supernova on my work bench. Don't think these suckers will be running very high, lol.

Ugh, wire, wire, wire.

[daplatapus]

I've e-mailed the manufacturer and looked through all available literature on these but still can't figure out what wire is for what. Anyone tell me which wire is +, -, ground and PWM?

Oh and I was able to get a hold of these little babies that will get soldered into the 4 LDD driver boards I'm getting so you can just plug the drivers in and out if you need/want to change them out

Where did you find the sockets for the ldd drivers?

A place in Vancouver called pixel print. If I recall they are just a 18 pin machine IC socket (Dom - correct me if I'm wrong). You can get them from a number of electronic supply places.
