cheapest option i have seen so far, a $7 50W COB with built in driver

Working Voltage:AC 170-300V adapter 220V 240V AC
Lamp Power: 50W +-10%
Connect type: L N solder pad
Lamp Color: full spectrum 380nm-840nm
Dimension: L87*W53*H4mm


Advantage:
This led chip adapter the new technology, the chip built-in the led driver in to the lamp module,
people do not need additional larger led driver for that. the module save more the room place to install the lamp in small lamp.
the electronic compent are uesed waterproof glue, so it can use for the mistureproof place ."


i was looking for data on drivers i have, when

I SAW THIS $6.94 50W COB 380nm - 840nm LED chip

https://www.ebay.com/itm/50W-170-265V...-/262703085255

they are reportedly bridgelux. i suppose it is achieved with phosphor technology, like (most?, all?) the "white" LEDs do.

the quantum efficiency, like all phosphor based LEDs, will probably not come close to monochromatic LEDs, but it is probably on par with or better than white LEDs.

(if anyone has data otherwise please share)(also, i think some led technology that outputs wide spetra, have a stacking arrangement of many semiconductor layers (more than the normal amount and quantum wells or something (unless that is all LEDs, well anyway, it looks like they build it like minecraft or something, with a higher mountain area and and block like, if you see pictures in google images, you'll know what to look for)). i am not sure if some of the current "vero" white LEDs don't use phosphors, but it seems most to all do, and absorbtion and re-emmision of energy, loses energy generally (but i believe in bob lazar, heat to energy 100% efficiency, some of you know what i mean). if anyone has data on the LED technology and/or this bridgelux plant spectrum technology, please share it)

EDIT: for US 120V to 220V converter/transformer is needed and maybe a surge protector strip, in case all the chips are run with their own plugs.

Question regarding my steves led driver

Hey i saw this forum has lots of replies and i figuref someone here might be able to help me. I bought this steves LED single driver 700 ma 24.5 volts with dimmer. The thing is. It looks way different compared to my meanwell drivers and i feel like this little thing shouldnt power 24.5 volts of 1-3 watt chips. I hqve a few pics of previous builds where i wire the series and then use wago clips to my driver. Im just seeing if anyone knows if this is the same concept? Its all snap together so i hqve no wires showing like the usual drivers and i wanna make sure its right

A 100K linear taper pot will be perfect.

Also just noticed-the 'A' version of that Meanwell doesn't use an external dimming function-just an internal pot.

Great.But do you thinks its worth it for time when you get 1000w for under $200

You don't. That's just inflated claims from crap manufacturers
