Modify LED's To Make Dimmable?

[Bosco83]

I bought these LED's about two years ago and I would like to see if I can install dimmable ballasts? I would like them to ramp up and down with my Apex. Here are some pics inside of the fixture.

Thanks,
Brian

All On

Unfortunately you are kind of stuck with the drivers it comes with, unless you want to bypass, or replace them with external drivers. The dimming function is done within the driver, and since the current drivers are not dimmable you would have to replace them. Unless you have a thorough knowledge of circuitry, and have the ability to modify the current circuit on the driver.

Brian, you could replace the drivers with remote dimmable drivers easily enough. How many LED's total and are whites & blues already on separate channels/circuits. This will determine how many drivers needed and I'd be happy to help you out with project. Give me a shout if you want help with or want to see my LED's circuitry configuration.

Cheers, Todd

55-2w epistar led's, 90degree optics, quiet fans, royal blue, blue, 10k and 6500k led's in fixture, 28/27 blue to white mix or 33/22 blue to white mix, two cords- one for blue one for white, 110w of led, will keep anything you want 30" deep easily, 3yr warranty and oh yes, the price of $300 Oh, did i mention individual circuits per led so if one goes out, the others stay lit, and loner service as well. All warranty work serviced in the USA

Hmm here is what the descrition was from when I bought them from Luke at reeffiltration. The blue and white come on separately.
