Hi all. I'm looking to drive 4 XP-G's from 110 VAC with dimming capabilities for an under cabinet lighting project. Leds are XPGWHT-U1-0000-00AE7 from Cutter. I was looking through the 1000's of AC drivers on Mouser and got a bit stuck. Please help me understand a couple of basics:
1. With a CC driver, do I care about the rated output voltage, or will the unit adjust the voltage as needed to drive the leds at the rated current? Most of the units are rated for higher voltage than I need.
2. What is the best way to incorporate dimming? If it matters, I don't need the dimming control to be at the wall switch; a little pot next to the power supply would be fine too.
Thank you!
