welps, it took a month to get everything all set up even after i had all the parts in. the hardest part was finding a drill press, next time ill probably just go with thermal adhesive of some kind if there is a next time haha
the leds are driven by well, drivers, six to a driver. one with all whites one with all blues and one with half and half, each driven by 24vDc each driver puts out one amp so if my preschool knowledge of eletricity is correct, it runs about 75 watts after the fans and efficiency loss
attached to the heatsink, before wiring, not very impressive but it took me a long time to get here. tapping took a long time, rows are for conformists, id rather make the pattern like a bat or whatever else you can see. its like looking at clouds or something
full power and you can take a peek at my living room
on my tank at full power
