Yeah they are actually, I didn’t look at them before I only looked at the lights.

I've got one of their 240w boards in use atm. Goes pretty well. Just rebranded though...I have another branded as "maxkon". Both identical lights.
Picked it up off a mate for $40 as the driver had burnt out. Picked up an elg-240 of AliExpress for fuck all and she's good to go..
It puts out close to 1300umol/s in the hotspot and 900umol/s outers at 16" full pelt, and around 900umol/s (hotspot) or 650umol/s (outers)
in a 180w/16" in a 90x50. Has a good hotspot in a 2x4, but not enough footprint to get over 350umol/s at the outers.
A bit pricey considering I got the maxkon board (identical) for $279 off eBay.

I reckon those lights are OEM and are rebadged.

Definately are for sure as I've seen them under multiple names now. Maxkon, techplex and a few Chinese names.

watch out buying drivers off Ali express etc. they are 100% knockoffs. Meanwell do not sell or distribute to sellers using Ali etc.
Also I recommend buying aus spec drivers even though they cost like $20 more

Yeah just another buying Chinese lights and whacking their name on them. There aren’t many who are actually making their own lights, only hlg and gla are laying their own diodes to my knowledgeLinear is the name on the techplex instrucions manual
Edit: wouldn’t be surprised if he’s drop shipping them.

Good to know. According to meanwell the serial number is a match so I might have got lucky.

They have a 100w, 200w, 400w and 600w model as well (1,2,4 or 6 boards).
I've seen them rebranded as everything lol. I have a 100w (hits 115w at the wall) and a 200w model here. The 200w model is actually 240w when ran on Aus 240v which is nice, and is identical to the techplex board. Basic generic 301b boards with meanwell drivers and bare minimum sink.
A step up from the kingbrite/sosen qb288 boards I have though.
That six board layout with no spacing is dated these days as well. 600x700mm footprint for a 600w light is way too centralised. The fact that it will fit in a 75x75 tent terrifies me.

Quoting the 100w as a 1000w hps replacement...my ass.. maybe 250w hps if your lucky.
