Hey guys,


looking forward to being a member here


I have a very simmilar question,

I will hook up 16 LMC stips wired in series to two HLG-120-C700B drivers,
(one driver for 8 Strips each)
and I also wanna hook up a Voltmeter! same one as the op

but I want to connect the meter between the HLG and the Strips.
1. is that a stupid idea?
2. Does that mean I have to order the DC instead of the AC version?

DC Version:

Well, in principle, the dude does not say that it is expensive, I would say it is normal. I'm sure that you, like every person, just dreams of saving on electricity, but I still haven't found such a way. maybe someone knows about this and will share it with me? Someone knows about https://www.simplyswitch.com/energy/gui ... explained/ because I don't know the exact details about this company myself, but my friends praise it. If anyone knows about it, I would be happy to hear your opinions and add up some information to make a final opinion.
