I ordered off of E-Bay a combo 20 Watt LED and a 20 Watt driver for an application that I have.
When I received it I tested it with a meter that I made up which shows the voltage, Amperage, Watts and Power.
The combination of the driver together with the LED showed as 9.1 Watts and not the 20 Watts that I wanted.
I suspected the driver was the cause so I tested the driver by wiring an existing 30 Watt LED ( 3-series of 10 ) and it showed when tested to be again only 9.1 Watts.
What do I do now, the driver cannot be used with 10 Watt LED's due to the voltage and under drives all of my LED's on hand.
I would appreciate your thoughts on this driver I have linked an image of the LED and driver for viewing.
Thank you in advance.
