    It wasn't nearly bright enough, had to raise it too high (lost even more light) to get the colors to mix, and wasn't happy with the colors. I could add a couple cool whites, but the dimness deterred me from trying again. Only thing I can think of is maybe using different wires (non braided) fed less power....? Or because I went with 700ma instead of 1a driver.

    Did you use CREE? I'm planning a large LED fixture and am trying to gauge people's experiences with various equipment.
