POWERdrive by eldoLED.

The POWERdrive 50W linear family of multi-channel drivers expands with your luminaires and applications. Making the world of color reimagined. POWERdrive has multiple constant current outputs that are independently controlled via DALI or DMX/RDM. Create your color or dynamic show without an external controller in standalone mode. POWERdrive consistently delivers the right color and smoothest fades.
