Trailblazer420 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Has anyone else gone through the exercise of replacing the standard LED spotlight chips with full spectrum chips? Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batista Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 (edited) It shouldnt bee too difficult,Take an existing one apart and pry the chip off, rewire and should just work assuming its 220v.I see ACDC was selling the 10w and 20w for R50/R100, so shouldnt be too much of a lesson if you break one. I like your idea very much,pls let us know if you come right. Edited December 10, 2018 by Batista Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McB Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 i wired one into an old halogen spotlight, but it was a 220v input cob, look about the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trailblazer420 Posted December 10, 2018 Author Share Posted December 10, 2018 I have a 200w (100w x 2) spotlight, bought 4 x 100w chips, if it works well, I'll get another spotlight. Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trailblazer420 Posted December 10, 2018 Author Share Posted December 10, 2018 So I connected all 4 as they run 220v,however, heatsink gets way to hot, way to quickly. Back on 2 chips, seems to be running relatively cool. Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CG420za Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 you could opt for active cooling by placing a pc fan on the back side... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trailblazer420 Posted December 12, 2018 Author Share Posted December 12, 2018 Yeah, weekend project perhaps. I am mind blown by how much less water in using after temp drop.Sent from my EVA-L09 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
