good luck. take pictures
I looked at it last night, but was confused about switched. In the comments someone suggested switches rated at 1.5A but driver is well over 2A.
I didnât feel comfortable with higher current while my and other listed switches are rated for 1-1.5A
Input current is ~1A at 12V, so if youâd switch input, not output (switching output on such driver, actually, is not recommended at all!) youâd be fine.
Thanks for all the help
Here is current build. The questions are for the next build that should double light output.
I have the same led as mentioned in post 0.
Any datasheets available? Who is manufacturer?
I tried it and it looks very nice.
I have this driver which is 1A capable and dimmable like the other one.

A lot of those PT4115 10W drivers have 0.2 and 0.3 ohm current sense resistors in parallel. This gives around 750 mA out. You can parallel them with another 1 ohm resistor to get closer to 1 amp output. When I tried pushing one to the 1.2 amp rating of the chip, it went into thermal shutdown mode. Also, it would probably be a good idea to not let that filter cap rest on the driver chip⌠it gets warm.
