I've had 2 tests on it so far and will write a build post once I get a chance. The chips are 100w but for power supply I've gone through 2 different ones of Ebay that don't perform at the rated 100w. The first one at 50w and second at 65w. Paying $1/watt for LED chips it is a little wasted not being able to run at full strength but for now will do.

thanks for the response, are you driving them with 12v DC? If so try a computer power supply, they can produce hundreds of watts of power.
The chips are spec as 365nm UV 100W 32-34V 3500mA 45mil. For me anything between 85-95w would be in the acceptable range as don't want to risk burning them either. Just a pain trying to research and which brands actually output close to what they are sold as.

cool, thanks for the info. Ah thats a different voltage than a computer power supply. Sounds like you need something special.
