    Two serially placed led drivers?

    I am seeing a strange design and i was hoping somebody could shed some light. I have a regular driver (42W constant current, 28-56v, 0-10v dim), but upstream (feeding to the line/neutral inputs) there is another driver that appears to be only acting as a filter. I wanted to understand before...

    LED drivers not giving out correct voltage

    I've just bought a bunch of led drivers (12VDC), but they're giving out between 24-32VDC. I'm assuming their faulty. However, testing my old halogen drivers (12VAC), the voltage their outputting on a dimmer (fully on) is only 7VAC. My multimeter seems fine - just getting a bit confused as...

    Led Drivers

    Evening chaps, when selecting drivers do we need to allow a margin over the lamp wattage ? Say a 10 w for a 6w lamp or is a 6w OK for a 6w? Cheers

    12V LED Drivers

    I am gradually replacing filament & halogen bulbs with LED versions. Whilst some LED lamps work okay with standard 12V transformers, the transformers don't like low current devices, resulting in flickering. Since the idea is to save money and energy, I don't really want to outlay large sums of...

    LED MR16s on DC LED drivers

    Struggling to find a consensus on this - is it OK to power MR16 LEDs off a DC power source? I have been asked to do this by a customer who has bought the lamps and transformers himself, but the MR16s actually say AC on them so I'm uneasy about it. He says he has connected them temporarily...

    LED Drivers - flashing lights!

    Folks, Fitted a bank of 6 LED lights last week....3 x 4W lamps on 2 x 15W LED drivers. When I powered up they flash on and off. Taking them down to one LED lamp per driver they light normally. I'm guessing that the flashing on/off is an under-power issue? Should a 15W driver be able to...
