Don’t care on your Battery Voltage? The RBD DC/DC LED Driver “thinks” for you!
Don’t care on your Battery Voltage? The RBD DC/DC LED Driver “thinks” for you! When driven from batteries i.e. in solar powered applications like off-grid street lighting or temporary traffic lights, the number of individual LEDs within one string is limited by the battery voltage. A 24V battery for example can support six LEDs with a standard buck driver. When the voltage drops below the required level of approximately 22V the LEDs turn dark long before the battery’s energy is fully used. The RBD-12 driver puts an end to such limitations! Read more »
