RSM 130D LED Retrofit

[tlhood]

I am looking forward to setting it up.

I read the instructions that they have online, and although they are for the solder kit, it seems pretty straight forward. I foresee my biggest struggle with setting up the Storm controller. And I am a little hazy on the drivers.

I do have a friend coming over to help me though, so it shouldn't take too long to figure out.

I am having some difficulty figuring out where I want to place each colour. Part of the problem is compounded by the fact that I don't exactly understand how everything will be connected and controlled, and which ones need to be on which driver.

This is the plan, done fantastically in MS Paint.



I am thinking this will give a pretty nice even spread.

The red and UV have a max of 700mA, so I have to put them on the 700HW driver, and figured I would run blues with them. On the other driver I have all my whites, and the rest of my blues.

i have 3 heat sinks of rapid led above my 125 i run them all at 650ish and its more than enough light

And yea you wan a run your whites separate from blues and red/green so u can dim and control the colour ratio

I can't completely split my blues from my whites unfortunately, because I only have the two LDD drivers that were provided. If I wanted a seperate one for white, blue, then R G UV etc, wouldn't I need 3 drivers?

I am not too concerned right now though, I am thinking having the 7 whites and 6 blues on the one driver will be more than enough balance on that one, and I can balance whether I want more blue or not with the Storm controller for the second driver.

If that makes sense... it does in my mind.

If I decide it doesn't work for me, I can always just order some more drivers.

O yea thats right cause you have 27 LEDs on that heat sink

Acutally now that I look closer it's pretty good don't mess with ut

[Craigdillman]

I would put your green and red on the left and right side of the fixture kinda in the middle for the best spread, check out my epic keyboard drawing

Hm. I get what you're saying.... I would have to rearrange my UVs, whites and blues so they aren't all clumpy.

I'll make a sketch on paint.
