Did you check to see if Martin @ Modular LED has any? If he does and you want one I can bring it up on Monday ( working up there )

No, they don't have it on their website.

Would 2 - 75w drivers work?

You should call Martin and ask if he has on or if he can get one for you

I can most likely get it for you if you give me the specs. We can get most Inventronics drivers.

As you know that I have a 300W LED non dimmable light fixture.
25 of 6watts blue LEDs and 25 of 6watts white LEDs . Assuming they are 700mA. I think therefore I need 150W driver right? How will I find out these LEDs are 700mA.

Yea you would need to know the current that they require. It may be more than 700mA. I think you would need to contact the manufacturer for that or look at the existing driver for current information.

Ya why don't I look at the driver itself. Thanks Martin.

Open it this afternoon all I see is a piece paper sticker say 80 - 130v and 630mA. So will 700mA works?

Yea it should work. This one would be your closest match: http://www.modularled.ca/inventronics-700ma-96w-driver/

inventronics-700ma-96w-driver good for 24 to 44 LEDs at 3W each. But mine is 25 0f 6W each?

I could try and help you out, do you have any information on the type, model number or maybe where you bought your 6w LEDs

Yes the LEDs are capeable of 6W each but that would be running them at full capacity most-likely 1A or 1.5A.

That 96w driver is comparable to the specs you quoted. Perhaps are there two drivers inside the fixture?

Sorry it was in other post. There are two drivers. Total 300W. 25 blues at 6W each on one driver and 25 whites at 6W each on the other.

Bought it at Aquatopusa. It is a LED light fixture.

Hi Martin,

Can I go with 2 of these:

From doing a quick reading (aquatopled, Bridgelux and Epistar)
your array is running at 50% of its capacity I wouldn't suggest running it hygher as I am not to sure about Bridgelux and Epistar LEDs.
So to say your leds are rated at 6w but in actual running at 600 to 700ma
That said I think what Martin is offering is good for your array.

Ya I just want to make sure 96W is enough or should I get the 120W

Personally if it was me I would get the 120w just to be on the safe side.

That's why I was looking for 2 150W to make sure that I have enough power to drive that sucker. One thing it is worry me is 630mA and I am getting a 700mA driver.

If the old one is 630mA & you go with the 700mA your good to go. As it is you don't use 700mA with the old drivers.

The 96w drivers are comparable to the drivers that are in your fixture right now. You can go up to 120w but as Eli said you do risk over driving the LEDs. Those drivers in your fixture according to the specs of 130V max and 630mA are capable of a maximum output of 81.9watts each. I'm not sure where they are getting the 300watts from but most likely that is just the theoretical maximum that the LEDs can run at.

I would suggest you try to find out what kind of LEDs are in there. From that you can get the Maximum Current and Forward Voltage to find out exactly what drivers would work. Doing it any other way you risk frying the LEDs which is why I would recommend going with a lower driver.

Should you pump 240 watts into the fixture with 2 drivers the LEDs might be capable of that but the fixture might not be capable of dispersing the heat.

Did you try contacting the manufacturer for their input?
