Do I Need an LED Driver?
18 Sep, 2018
Most people are familiar with the energy savings and long life spans associated with LEDs, or light-emitting diodes with increasing energy regulations. But why you need an LED driver, and what type of driver you may need. Every LED light source requires a driver. Some LEDs already include an integrated driver within the bulb. LEDs designed for household use (bulbs with E26 / E27 or GU24 / GU10 bas...

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 ...

Some Factors should considered when purchasing A LED Driver
31 Oct, 2018
What factors we should take into consideration when we purchase a 12v 24v Constant Voltage LED Driver? 1. Max Wattage According to the National Electrical Code, LED drivers should be paired with LEDs that use 20% less than their maximum rated wattage. For example, if you have a LED Driver 100 watt that can operate a maximum of 100 watts, it should only operate LEDs that use 80 watts at most (100 x...

Constant Voltage LED Drivers Smarts Electronics offered
08 Nov, 2018
Constant Voltage LED Driver typically has two kind of voltage ratings, 12Vdc & 24Vdc. The LED Driver works to keep the voltage at an optimal steady rate to supply the necessary electricity needed to run LED. Too much power can burn out the led and too little power can cause the led to produce a dim light, therefore it is significant to select the right voltage power supply to adapt to the appl...

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...
