16 channel Heat


Guest guest

Recommended Posts

How much heat is generated by the LOR controller with and average of 3 amps per channel. I'm trying get an enclosure for less than $30. I've seen some people put them in $50 Nema boxes and some in $3.95 Rubbermaid containers.

Thanks,

Joe

I recommend that you keep the total power level down below 30A continuous if you put it in a plastic box... 40A in a metal box. Now this is continuous duty... If you have a typical display, the lights will be on less than 50% of the time (50% duty cycle) with a 50% duty cycle you be fine in either plastic or metal.
