Transitioning to LED Lights Can Be Simpler Than You Think

Unlike halogen or fluorescent light bulbs used in the lighting fixtures of yesteryear, LEDs are more delicate in their design. What this means is that installing LED fixtures requires also installing electronics that will protect the diodes from overcurrent events or surges to defend their delicate design. For example, the LEDs in screens or marketing signage can be expensive to replace if the diodes are damaged from something such as an overcurrent event. LED drivers act as an insurance plan to help ensure that the LEDs reach their life expectancy.
