Don’t care on your Battery Voltage? The RBD DC/DC LED Driver “thinks” for you!
When driven from batteries i.e. in solar powered applications like off-grid street lighting or temporary traffic lights, the number of individual LEDs within one string is limited by the battery voltage. A 24V battery for example can support six LEDs with a standard buck driver. When the voltage drops below the required level of approximately 22V the LEDs turn dark long before the battery’s energy is fully used. The RBD-12 driver puts an end to such limitations!

Philips Creates a 200lm/W Warm-White LED Lamp
Philips announces a new innovation in LED lighting, creating the world's most energy-efficient LED lamp suitable for general lighting applications. Philips researchers developed a tube lighting (TL) replacement TLED prototype that produces a record 200 lumens per watt of high-quality white light (compared with 100lm/W for fluorescent lighting and just 15lm/W for traditional light bulbs). This prototype TLED lamp is twice as efficient as predecessor lamps, basically halving the energy used.
