Default RSM 130D LED Retrofit

As my first real DIY project, I decided to get rid of the two T5 bulbs that come with the stock RSM 130D... however I wanted to keep the hood, and get something that is virtually dummy proof. As I am pretty non-electrical savvy, I opted to get the RapidLED Solderless Dimmable LED retrofit kit.

Ordered on May 22, and received it on May 28.

It came with the following:

•4.25" x 16" Heatsink drilled/tapped for 27 LEDs and 4 installation holes
•1 Red, 1 Green, 4 UV, 7 Cool White, 14 Royal Blue CREE XP-G2 LEDs
• 1 Mean Well LDD-700HW + 1 Mean Well LDD-1000HW drivers + SE-350-48 power supply
•2 Driver Jumpers
•2 Terminal Plug
•25 pieces of 3" LED to LED wire
•1 Tube of Thermal Grease
•4 water repellent wire nuts (plus 12 non-water repellent wire nuts)
•22 feet of bulk wire

I also opted to get the Storm Controller and a Multimeter.

With exchange rates, GST, and customs fees, it ran me $442.25 CAD.

I probably won't start messing around with installing it until the weekend. Blurry iPhone pic inc.
