Stop for a second. How much money are you throwing away just because of a wrong connection?
Every day we receive requests like these:
12-volt spotlight, 24-volt… or maybe 350 mA?
Let’s clear things up.
Not all LED spotlights are the same, and they can be powered in two different ways:
constant voltage or constant current.
Confusing these two concepts leads to wiring errors, energy waste, and system issues.
Constant voltage spotlights
When a spotlight operates at 12 V or 24 V, the voltage remains fixed.
In this case, connections must be made in parallel:
all the positives together, all the negatives together.
The driver keeps the voltage constant and increases the total current based on the number of connected spotlights.
Constant current spotlights
When a spotlight operates at 350 mA, 500 mA, or 700 mA, the wiring logic changes completely.
Here, the connection is in series.
The current remains constant, while the voltage adjusts according to the number of connected spotlights.
Same light, different connection.
And this is exactly where many unnecessary problems arise:undersized drivers, higher-than-needed power consumption, and unreliable systems.
