How Many Lights Can I Connect To My Power Supply?
27 Sep, 2018
When operating LED lights, you need a Class 2 LED Power Supply to convert your standard line voltage (120V or 277V) into low voltage (12V or 24V). This allows your lights to function properly. To figure out how many lights you can power with a single power supply, look to the minimum and maximum wattage ratings. The led power supply's minimum wattage rating tells you the smallest number of watts i...

What is a LED Power Supply used for?
11 Oct, 2018
An LED Strip Light Power Supply is an electrical device which regulates the power to an LED or a string (or strings) of LEDs. An LED Driver Power Supply responds to the changing needs of the LED, or LED circuit, by providing a constant quantity of power to the LED as its electrical properties change with temperature. The LED drivers are either constant current led driver or Constant Voltage LED Dr...

Some Questions about LED Electronic Driver
23 May, 2019
Can a driver operate more than one LED fixture? Answer: In some cases, an external LED Driver Power Supply can operate more than one light fixture. A led power driver’s datasheet should always specify how many fixtures it can operate. Isn’t a Constant Current LED Drivers similar to a resistor? Answer: Yes, in that they both regulate current. led driver constant current are preferable because they ...

An LED Driver Power Supply is needed to run LED's properly
06 Dec, 2018
LED Driver SMPS are used to function the LED. They are used to convert the input voltage to a voltage which is considered optimum for the LED. LED Drivers Power Supplies are usually switching mode devices that convert the input voltage (Typically 100-265VAC or 12 VDC) into a voltage at which the current drawn by the LED's is equal to its drive current. Due to increasing energy regulati...

What is the purpose of a LED driver and how does it work?
11 Dec, 2018
An 12v DC LED Driver is needed to run LED's properly. Unlike most electronic devices, LED's are current driven devices, not voltage driven ones. Even a minuscule change in voltage can lead to a huge change in current. Hence, it is important that the drive current is regulated and not the voltage. 24V Constant Voltage LED Power Supplies are usually switching mode devices that convert the input volt...

What is a LED driver for LED lighting?
20 Dec, 2018
A LED power driver is an electrical device which regulates the power to an LED or a string (or strings) of LEDs. An Triac Dimmable LED Driver responds to the changing needs of the LED, or LED circuit, by providing a constant quantity of power to the LED as its electrical properties change with temperature. LED drivers do exactly what it sounds as if they do – that is, they drive the power that’s s...

Why do LEDs flicker?
10 Jan, 2019
All mains-powered light sources flicker – whether halogen, fluorescent incandescent, or LEDs. In the UK, mains electricity is an alternating current (AC) power supply, delivered at a frequency of 50 hertz. Which means the electric current that powers your lights – any lights – switches backwards and forwards 50 times each second. We didn’t used to notice it with our old incandescent...

What is PFC function power supply?
17 Jan, 2019
PFC is the acronym for power factor correction or power factor controller. It minimizes the amount of reactive power produced by computers. Active PFC uses electronic circuits in efficiently distributing power to devices connected to the power supply. Power Factor Correction. Many loads are highly inductive, such a lightly loaded motors and illumination 24 volt LED Transformer and ballasts. You ma...

When Do I Need a “Constant-voltage” LED Driver?
25 Feb, 2019
Most commercially available LED “light modules” are constructed by connecting a number of LEDs in series orinparallel to form cluster or string configurations. In cases where these lights modules include a constant-current driver as part of the assembly, an external “constant-voltage” driver or power supply is required. Low cost LED circuits control the current flowing through the LED with a simpl...

What is a led driver
23 May, 2019
Due to increasing energy regulations, most people are familiar by now with the long life spans and energy savings associated with LEDs, or light-emitting diodes. However, many are not aware that these innovative light sources require specialized devices called LED drivers to operate. LED drivers (also known as LED power supplies) are similar to ballasts for fluorescent lamps or transformers for lo...
