OK, what is the difference between an LED Driver and a power supply? I'm currently working with a "constant voltage" LED driver that connects to a dimming module. The dimming module wants a constant 8v input which the LED driver provides. I don't see why I need a $200 LED driver that just sits there putting out a constant 8v with a 40w rating when I can get a really good "power supply" for $50.
I've asked the manufacturer who doesn't have a good technical explanation. They just say using anyone elses supply will void the warranty. Does anyone know why this should or shouldn't work?
