    Replacing LED Driver

    Hello, my vanity fixture LED driver needs to be replaced. It's constant current with output 25-38.5vdc 600mA max 45v no load. I can't find exactly the same driver. The driver with 24-36vdc 600mA resulted in flicking. I'm thinking about going down to 450mA with 21-43Vdc. Will this work? Thank you
