Hi
I am very new to building anything LED.
I would love som help in finding the right driver for 4 Cree XML T6 10w 3A
Would the Mean Well APC-12-700 do the job
Or would the watt rating be way to small?
any help would be much appreciated
Cree XML & Mean Well APC-12-700
The APC-12-700 is adequate to power the 4 LEDs.[email protected] wrote: ↑Thu Jan 14, 2021 2:25 pmI would love som help in finding the right driver for 4 Cree XML T6 10w 3A

Some Calculations:
XML T6 is 2.9V, 700mA, 2W
4 (in Series) = 11.6V, 700mA, 8W
APC-12-700 is 9 - 18V, 700mA, 12.6W @ 80% Eff.
18V / 2.9V = 6.2 max XML T6 LEDs wired in Series.
8W / .8 (Eff) = ~ 10 Watts at Wall
