LED Fixture

[guerry]

Hi eveyone, Thought I might show off my latest LED fixture build. This setup is for my frag system so to start I orderred a 36"x10" heat sink and asortment for emitters consisting of cool white, royal blues, reds and greens. heres pic of heatsink

alt="" />
next it was time to layout 96 3watt emitters

alt="" />

alt="" />
with basic wiring now done I started with frame build to support cover and orther components

alt="" />

alt="" />

alt="" />
then it was time to build cover, I used 1/4" black arcylic for this heres pic of parts cut and ready for sovent welding

alt="" />
and here you have it one cover

alt="" />

alt="" />
ok more later stay tuned

That thing looks great! What are the white rectangles in the 4th pic, thermal switches? And where do you buy your LEDs?

 

[guerry]

those are resiters, for this build I decided to run 24 emitters to one driver

Edit: here's pictures of finished wiring and ready to install

well with everything built it was time for install, first to remove old lighting

alt="" />
now I had set my new centers for hanging kit and install support backets

alt="" />

alt="" />
so now the hard part, not having 6 hands and not going to trust my wife to hold things up I build temp. stands

alt="" />

alt="" />
that was the ticket and here is fixture hanging on it's own

alt="" />
So here's what we've all been waiting to

so here's the low down, par is 300 at bottom of tank with controller set at 40% blue,red and green 30% coolwhite and I have not turned on the 24 mid day emitters yet. Also all the pic's above have no blue balance adjustment on camera and no phote shop, all other LED photes I've taken whether my DT tank or others have always needed alot of blue balance within the camera
