Bridgelux EB series gen 3 strips
Yeah I understand what your saying. So let me ask this. If I am running an LED strip how can I confidently say the voltage will limit the current when the current increases 2 fold with a 0.8 increase in voltage? That could never work to protect an array of led strips because the vf drops as the temp increases.
I am using this example as my reference: https://www.rollitup.org/t/bridgelux-eb ... ls.957453/
At 19.26 volts the current is 700ma. At 20.08 volts the current is double.
I don't think voltage limiting will work in this regard. Your leds would burn long before you noticed the 2x increase in current. Especially if you are away from home. And your driver would have no way of saving them because the voltage change is so small. If I'm wrong please correct me.

But if you increase the voltage by 0.8v (as an example) the current would jump substantially and burn out the led. Do the HLG drivers allow that kind of voltage control?
So this is why you need to set everything up and adjust it when it is running. If it is a major concern you can do it when it is hot, what will happen if you adjust it when hot is it will run at a lower current until it has fully warmed up

So do you run the HLG is CC or CV mode? Because it seems from the datasheet you cannot adjust voltage when it is in CC mode. I know you said it always runs in CC mode, but the datasheet disagrees.
