Dimming Performance

Minimum brightness from off: <1% Minimum brightness from max: <1%

Smoothness of Dimming

When used with trailing edge dimmers this driver performed very well with a variety of 700mA fittings. No significant flicker was observed at any stage with the output stable throughout its dimming profile. The dimming profile itself did have a noticeable large step at around 50% of maximum output but while fading between the levels the change in light output was smooth and relatively continuous in all other areas.

Audible Noise

No audible noise

Notes

Not usable with leading edge, tested with a variety of fittings this driver flashes through the majority of the output range. This was bad enough to be unacceptable to all users.
