Thread: Luxeon 3w driver question?

  1. #1

    Default Luxeon 3w driver question?

    Sorry if this is in the wrong place, but I have a question about the Lux. 3w driver. Could I use the Lux 3w driver on a K2 LED? Or do I have to use a Lux. III? Thanks for the help.

    Yes you can use a k2 on it but it will be underpowered by about 500 mah.

    Then stick with paying attention to the current for the LED you are using.

    The "Corbin board" drives at about 1000ma, so match it with an LED that is "best" at 1000ma or so.

    Certain puck drivers drive at 700ma... so you'd want an LED that is best at 700ma for that one.

    In most cases:
    Suit the max. current to the current... fwd voltage to the voltage.
