Meanwell driver question

Post by Daisyjam »

Hi All

I am just about to order an RA but was wondering if anyone has used the HLN-80H series of Meanwell drivers? I am going to be using some CREE XML2 LEDs and the HLN drivers a re bit cheaper than the LPF drivers.

Never used, but what is the main difference between them?

Thanks for the quick reply Roberto. I have no idea what the difference is other than the current/voltage rating is slightly different. PWM signal seems to be the same as the LPF: 100Hz to 3KHz.

Spec is here www(.)mouser(.)com/ds/2/260/HLN-80H-spec-34147.pdf

Do you see any obvious issues or problems using this series?

I didn't see any significant difference except for power too.
