22-36 vdc driver

[kapk22]

Need help locating replacement LEDs for exterior wall fixtures with the driver shown. 22-36vdc.

Anyone know the best place to find some?

Looking for 6000k or above

Local wholesalers, just ask for a 350mA constant current led driver for 12W.

awesome! Thank you

This will get me the 6000k bulbs?

Sorry thought you wanted a driver, for the lamps, 350mA is a common spec, best remove one from the wall and see if they can get hold of some,

This work ?

I ended up getting the ones pictured here and wired them parallel. When I applied power the lights just flashed/slowly strobed. Any idea what to do here?

these are the correct voltage range. 24.

what's the higher of the 2 voltages specced on the new driver. it need to be = or > 36V

I’m using the same driver, new led. The range is 22-36 volts.

the new LEDs are 24 volts.

what wattage are the lamps?

This is what it shows.

The ZM-6223-CW seems to be a constant voltage (24v) lamp.
But that's a constant current supply!

Firstly... I'm sure the OP is asking for lamps/fittings to use for the Constant Current driver that he already has.

As to the wiring of any lamps... as you have a Constant Current driver... lamps are usually wired in Series. (so that the current that flows through each one is the same or 'constant') The voltage will vary to maintain the current of 350mA. If none of that makes sense... have a look on YouTube for any vids that explain it all.

Can't help on finding appropriate lamps as I see you're in Oregon and I'm in the UK.

So, it should be working fine?

Oops, I just read the other reply. Sounds like it needs to be wired series.

Hi
If I'm right about the specification of your lamps, they seem to be designed to run from a constant 24 volts. I was trying to say they do not seem to be the correct type for the power supply you have.

To work with your present power supply, what you need is a lamp, or lamps, designed for a constant current of 350mA, that when drawing that, work within the range of 22 to 36 volts.
The supply you have does not necessarily give out 24volts. It tries to push 350mA round the circiut, and effectively 'winds up' (or 'winds down') its output voltage until the current reaches 350mA. There seems to be an incompatibility between the voltage your lamps need, and the voltage your supply will give out when it reaches 350mA.
If they don't work in parallel on your supply, I would doubt if they will work in series.

If you have a multimeter you should check the voltage coming out of your power unit when connected to the lamps. Of course it's always possible the power supply is faulty!

Can you not acquire a lamp designed to work on a constant current of 350mA within the voltage range on your supply?

Possibly, but it may be easier to replace the drivers???

Each of your new lamps takes about 2 watts, so with 2 lamps you would need a 24 volt LED driver with at least 5 watts power. Anything above that will do, say 10 watts, but the higher the power rating the more expensive they tend to be. See what you can find!
(5 watts at 24 volts is about 0.2 amps, ie 200mA, so any 24V power supply giving at least 0.2A should work!)

Well, I am totally confused now. I am not sure how I can wire these in series, as they are already pre-wired in each housing. I wanted to just check and make sure they would still not work properly in series before buying different drivers. I don’t seem to know how I can do this with these lamps the way they are already wired. Maybe I am missing something?? I even watched a few YouTube videos and they don’t help. Please see the pics for reference.

meanwhile, I will look for drivers mentioned.

Can anyone help me find a place to order the correct drivers?

any price range I am looking at?

These are 24v lamps. If you wire them in series they should need 48v to work. Your power supply doesn't go up to 48v. However if you still want to try it, you can wire them like this (sorry for scruffy sketch)
