The downlight driver uses active damping with bleeding circuitry, which, according to the company, is more efficient and ensures longer life than using an electrolytic bulk capacitor.
The Linkswitch-PH also meets all PFC and harmonic content rules.
Finally, it is compatible with existing home dimmers.
