There are several places in the house where pictures could use light:shrug: and the current set up of one CREE XPG hi-CRI driven at 1A has satisfied the requirements very well :twothumbs. I am thinking of slowly integrating the POL design to replace other AC fixtures that does not require a huge output of light but I am having trouble finding a suitable mains current source for one single LED. :tired:
Current design is centered at using a 4W PCB mounted AC/DC switcher providing 12V out and a 3021-D-N-1000 buckpuck to provide the current source. This has worked well except for one problem:sick2:. The setup costs on average $50 in materials and the minimal project box dimension to accommodate it is 4" x 2" x 1" and I think it could be smaller. :huh:
I'm hoping to locate an equivalent switcher [to cut down on heat, plain fed up with linear converters melting holes through ABS operating just within a year ] that can provide about 3.5W under a constant current of 1A.
Anyone has any ideas?:thumbsup:
