Driver vs. transformer - the difference
An LED driver provides constant current (e.g. 350mA, 700mA) regardless of load voltage. Ideal for COB modules, high-power LEDs and anything where exact current regulation matters. An LED transformer provides constant voltage (typically 12V or 24V) and the LEDs regulate the current themselves via internal circuits. Transformers are standard for LED strips and low-voltage systems. Rule of thumb: strips → transformer, integrated LED modules → usually driver.
