LED Drivers

In Australia, LED lights use LED drivers to convert a higher-voltage supply to the lower voltage they need. Dimmable options allow light output to be adjusted.

About LED Drivers products

For light bulbs and tubes or LED strip lights that need an external power supply, a led lamp driver must match the light source’s electrical requirements. The lamp drivers on this page include the 12V Transformer 75W and 24V Transformer 60W.

If you’re a fan or avid user of LED lights, you may be familiar with LED drivers. LED light drivers can be wireless or joined to an LED system. They’re an integral part of all LED lights converting high voltage power supply to low voltage for use and protecting them from current fluctuations. If you’re looking to buy LED drivers online, you’ve come to the right place. ArchiPro has a great selection from reputable suppliers across Australia.

Constant current LED drivers

Constant current LED drivers are best for high powered LED lights or LED downlights as they can withstand a range of voltages. These drivers maintain a constant current by varying the voltage supplied to the light.

Constant voltage LED drivers

Constant voltage LED drivers are best for LED lights with a fixed voltage (like 12V or 24V) and bright coloured LED lights requiring constant voltage for optimum vibrancy. These help with lights that are already being regulated with another device, such as a resistor. When selecting a led tape driver for LED strip lights, check the total wattage of the connected strip as well as its voltage.

The advantages of high quality LED Drivers

If you’ve got LED lights, you’ll want them to look as good as possible, while being safe and not at risk of electrical failure. All light fittings and accessories in Australia including LED drivers should be high quality to help your lights shine better and brighter for longer.

How to choose the LED Driver that’s right for you

There are several factors to keep in mind when you are looking to buy LED drivers. First, note the voltage requirements of your lights. They will require the same voltage in an LED driver, usually 12V or 24V. Next, have a look at the voltage supply of the area where you will be using the LED lights. Finally, think about the safety and dimming properties of the lights. What is the IP rating? Would you require your lights to be dimmed? Knowing the answers to these questions will help inform the choice of product you need. A dimmable led driver, such as the 24V Dimmable Transformer 30W 1.25A, needs to be compatible with the dimming control used in the circuit.

Why do LED lights need LED drivers?

All LED lights in Australia need LED drivers. This is because the power supply needs to be converted to an appropriate level to increase safety. LEDs need a constant direct current of 12V or 24V, which is usually much lower than the main power supply.

How many LEDs can you run with a driver?

This will depend on various factors, including whether your lights are in one area or across many spaces, the overall wattage of all the lights, how many parts are on the driver distribution block, and how long the cables on the light fittings are.

What are the different power types for LED drivers?

There are two main power types, constant current and constant voltage. Constant current can be 350mA, 700mA or 1A, while constant voltage can be 10V, 12V or 24V.

Where do you mount an LED driver?

There are a few factors that contribute to where an LED driver should be mounted. Generally, they should be mounted as far away from the heat generation source as possible, and in a well-ventilated area to increase safety. If you are concerned about these guidelines, talk to a professional.
