This post returns to the same start-up company to talk about <strong>a product<\/strong> <strong>related to the implementation of this new technology<\/strong>, which they are about to release onto the market. The product is <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">an LED driver which will completely change our experience to date of this lighting system<\/span>.<\/p>\n<h3>What Is an LED Driver?<\/h3>\n<p>As FINsix explains on its website, LEDs are not like incandescent lamps. <strong>They need direct current <\/strong>(DC) in order to work, just like our portable devices. This is the function of the driver: <strong>a power converter which provides the DC current, and controls and regulates the light\u2019s intensity.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The LED driver plays a fundamental role in all aspects of this type of lighting and <strong>affects its lifetime and cost<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1980\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/smallest-advanced-led-driver-world.jpg\" alt=\"ledes-1\" width=\"640\" height=\"400\" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<h3>The Smallest, Most Advanced LED Driver in the World<\/h3>\n<p>FINsix has developed the smallest, most advanced LED driver in the world. Its innovative circuit, which reduces the size of the power electronics, means that this illumination system consumes <strong>five times less energy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>FINsix\u2019s driver uses a <strong>patented technology which regulates the light output<\/strong> and therefore offers a highly superior dimming control.<\/p>\n<p>The product is designed in such a way that it is <strong>compatible with existing infrastructures<\/strong>: with magnetic as well as electronic transformers. Furthermore, the engineers <strong>have managed to eliminate the blinking, noise, instability <\/strong>and other inconveniences presented by the use of LEDs to date.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike traditional power electronics, the new driver does not need inductors, transformers or electrolyte capacitors. <strong>It is produced using a no-touch manufacturing process which avoids<\/strong> wear-out mechanisms that cause <strong>early failure<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>FINsix will launch <strong>complete driver modules<\/strong> so that lighting equipment manufacturers can <strong>reduce their time-to-market<\/strong> and <strong>guarantee high performance<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3>Inmesol LED Lighting Towers<\/h3>\n<p>Here at Inmesol we are particularly interested in this news as we use LED lamps in our \u2018autonomous\u2019 lighting towers as well as in our lighting towers for emergency situations, <strong>designed to be transported on roads and motorways <\/strong>at high speed.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1981 lazyload\" data-src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/1_smallest-advanced-led-driver-world.jpg\" alt=\"ledes-2\" width=\"640\" height=\"400\" title=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 640px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 640\/400;\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FINsix has developed the smallest, most advanced LED driver in the world.
