![]() The problem with a large build and not running parallel is that you would need a massive amount of the ELN-60-48 meanwells and they are not power factor corrected. As such, the In-rush current when/if you turned them all on at once has been considered dangerous for overheating the wiring at the receptacle.

![]() Did you ever get a price and/or an expected delivery date on those HLG drivers? In looking on the cdiweb site, they all say "out of stock" and "call for pricing".

![]() Power Supply:
well im not going with CDI because they wont ship anything but UPS and the guy seemed grumpy and he said 14weeks on everything soo... i called meanwell, tried to find a distributer in Canada. I found one on the east coast which I emailed for prices. I also found one in cali that will ship via USPS if i ask nicely but they are about 30% more than CDI but cheaper than anyone else i found http://wattsupply.com/s.nl/it.A/id.3056/.f the girl was really nice and she said she would help me out if i need it USPS and could get it to for me in a couple days because her warehouse had a couple. (i seem to have better luck with the girls than the guys) so $114ish vs $85ish but no waiting 3 weeks. Heatsinks: ive also started hunting down heatsinks. for me to get the heatsinkusa heatsinks its something like $70 for shipping of all the heatsinks. They will do USPS for me though. Anyone know anywhere in Canada to pickup heatsinks? Soldering Iron I seem to be having a hard time finding a decent prized 40w-60w soldering station. Anyone have a lead on these? Seem to be expensive in Canada, lol. And I cant get amazon to ship them to Canada. btw most of the other parts on my list are from digikey and they have warehouse in canada. |

![]() Have you tried these guys for the soldering station?
http://www.mainelectronics.com/solderstn.htm I think they carry many of the ones that Amazon does. Hope that helps.

![]() One option you might want to look at is going to princess auto, picking up one of their soldering irons (with temp control) and picking up their wireholder with soldering iron holder and magnifying glass. Here are some links:
http://www.princessauto.com/workshop...gnifying-glass http://www.princessauto.com/workshop...stable-control Almost like building your own soldering station.

![]() I ordered both my drivers through future electronics as well as my LEDs. They may be a bit more than the states but shipping was relativly inexpensive and the service was great
