HLG Scorpion Diablo (B-spec) modification.

This is not approved by HLG in any way shape or form....lol

However, this is just the upgrade it needed. Thanks HLG, for leaving enough heat sink to add 3 more boards....i cant Imagine why everyone is not using these boards.....

@Dr. Ozzy yeah i just saw that light. theyre calling it The Blackbird....6@QB200s. nice light...

i mainly did it cause i got tired of moving my 600 Bspec in and out of the tent. i put the remaining bspec on a DIY 2 board QB648 light in my 4x2 So it's basically like one arm of the Diablo... Also with separate power supplies so I can control them independently

@Dr. Ozzy oh you got the rspec and bspec 135w kits.... and you just swap em out, thats perfect for 2x3....

@W J Rucier I did this run. I have a single plant under the R spec now but had a seed not pop. Hoping to clone it and follow up with 2 in there to see how that goes- also thinking of mounting B spec panel in a smaller dedicated seedling/early stage until up pot tent and keeping the R spec in the 2 X 3. (bought another driver) It's a 3' tent and I will dial the driver down to 60w.

Dunno. all a bit of an experiment- 🔬

I know HLG just released a new model light that was black, for a larger area but played closer to canopy height...but the Diablo has been out for a while. Supposed to be a Beast too, can't imagine adding panels to it....next question is are they controlled separately? Or does it aaaaall just blaze at once??

Did you add panels in the middle? The blue ones? Are those B spec panels?
