Thanks for sharing!
Alrighty ... Carrying on

The next step I took care of was soldering up my DIY LED's.

I purchased 3 heat sinks, and made 3 separate units. Each unit contained 12 Royal Blue (460nm) and 12 Cool Whites (6500K) wired into meanwell drivers controlled by RapidLED's dimmable controller.

Blue Test:



They work! Time to mount

Oh wait ... pure Chaos!!



Chaos Cleaned up



You can see that the right side is whiter than the left side. This meant that I needed to adjust the SVR2 setting on the driver for the blues on the left pendant which was taking slightly more amperage than the others.
