Surfing4Dough Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 A RF fully on (white) takes 1.08Amps (http://www.christmasonmanor.com/pdf/RFL%20Data%20Sheet.pdf). So 3.24A for just your floods. I don't think the DC board takes much (I think 450W, which is less than 0.1A I believe). I would account for a little expansion over the next few years though (add 2-3 more floods or spots).

Ponddude Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 Are you looking to run the 3 floods on one grouping of channels (ie 3 channels)? If so, you can not daisy chain 3 floods together. The board can handle it but the cabling can't. However, you will be completely fine running 3 floods on a DC controller. They are very powerful!!
