LED Drivers

1. What are LED Drivers?

An LED driver is an electrical device used to regulate the power to an LED or LED light string. It provides the correct current and voltage to the LED or LED light string, ensuring it operates within its rated specifications and avoids burnout. LED drivers may also provide dimming or other features.

2. What are the Main Types of LED Drivers?

There are two types of LED drivers:

Constant Current LED Drivers

Constant Voltage LED Drivers

3. What do LED Drivers do?

LED drivers rectify high-voltage AC power to low-voltage DC power. LED drivers also protect the LEDs from voltage or current fluctuations. Voltage variations can cause changes in the current flowing to the LEDs.

4. Can any LED Driver Work with any LED Lights?

The input voltage of the LED light and the output voltage of the LED driver should be compatible. Check these voltages before connecting to avoid damage. There are also constant current LED drivers available in 6V to 24V ranges that are suitable for certain types of LED lights. However, their compatibility is not universal.
