Get A Grip On Lighting - The LED Tinkerer

November 26, 2018

Get a Grip on Lighting #53

In this episode of the show, Michael sits down with Wes, a self-proclaimed LED Tinkerer. Wes wandered into Michael’s store in Toronto, Canada, and asked to speak to the owner. Michael, seizing the opportunity to create content, threw Wes into the studio and asked him to explain his tinkering.

Wes has taken the driver out of an LED fixture and connected it directly to DC current, and then tested the connection to show the LED chip’s power consumption is only 1/4 of a Watt. Michael asks questions for details of what makes it work before giving Wes another project to tackle in the form of illuminating an LED tube.
