Hi,
I would like some advice on LED's. I have four LED's which came as part of a set with a transformer. The LED's are designed to be recessed and can be ceiling mounted as down lights. The four LED's plug into a splitter which connects to a single transformer which is plugged into the mains with a three pin plug.

What I want to do is split each LED so that each is powered and switched separately. So I would like to buy four LED drivers and drive each LED separately. My problem is I do not know which LED driver I need?

Each LED is marked as follows: BLUE LED
WATT: 0.5W
OP VOLT: 5V DC
IP54

The transformer is marked: AC 100-240V 50/60Hz 0.2A
O/P: DC 5V, 1A

So based on the spec of the LED which driver would I need? The term "OP VOLT: 5V DC" confuses me :confused:, drivers I have seen so far are rated 12V.

Any help appreciated.
