    Swap a 3 stage LED transformer.

    Could I replace it with one of these: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Chanzon-Constant-Current-Lighting-Transformer/dp/B01N5SJ3L8 Then take one of these and put in the light housing before the feed to the driver and tweak it to what I want? So when power is applied the driver is dimmed to a certain...

    Swap a 3 stage LED transformer.

    I can't use a dimmer switch as it's linked with my stair lights that aren't dimmable. I really want to replace the driver so when it's turned on it's set at 25% of its dimming capacity. I've attached a picture of the driver. Is there a way to tell what 25% of the feed is and get a driver so...

    -DIY- Powering a 3 volt LED from a 4.5V supply

    Yep I will do that. So would you say I'm fine to use the soap reactor on any LED light up features?

    I opened the other large stubby thing and tried that and it worked. Excellent! Maybe an issue with that other one. Thank you so much for your help! How can I repay you?

    -DIY- Powering a 3 volt LED from a 4.5V supply

    Thank you. I watched them before I bought the soap reactor. I just thought I'd be sure before damaging anything. I've tried the stubby thing both ways round via the soap reactor and the LEDs will not illuminate. I tried the stubby thing with batteries attached and they lit up fine. Something...

    Your delivery times are better than amazon! 0.026 0.008 Your delivery times are better than amazon! Leds turned up and I made an attempt. Connecting it via the first diagram I got 0.026A Connecting it via the 2nd diagram (hopefully I did it correct) I got 0.008A The MM went off after 4.5...

    So if I needed instructions on replacing a contactor in a star delta starter it would be tumbleweeds? Lol So does the information that is it passes 0.015A tell you something in partciular about the soap reactor?

    -DIY- Powering a 3 volt LED from a 4.5V supply

    The stubby item has + and - on it. When I connect red to + and black to - I get 4.5v. If I connect the other way round I get -4.5v. My MM doesn't do milliamps, I'll try and find another one. Am I supposed to be doing this test on the lead with the resistor in it or normal one?

    Yes that is what I have pictured with the prongs at either end. I do have some spare LEDs I can play with here. I have some these if they will work...

    -DIY- Powering a 3 volt LED from a 4.5V supply

    I meant the battery adapter with wires on it that goes in the head to replace the batteries worked just via the battery attached. I just tried batteries through the resistor too and they lit up.

    -DIY- Powering a 3 volt LED from a 4.5V supply

    They all turned up great, thanks again! I've put it together and the voltage still isn't dropping. See pic. I tried it anyway and the eyes don't light up. Before I did anything I checked that the lead that goes into Batman head worked, put it in his head and attached a battery to the other end...
