    LED Driver - Dummy Loads

    I have opened up an led filament candle and found that each filament operates at 84V.
    I'm wondering if these can be used as dummy loads for LCD sets to test the led driver circuits?
    Would be interested in your thoughts.

      Its is possible. You can also use a bunch if 20w leds in series.

              LED DRIVER KEEPS DYING
              by osrex
              Hello, this is my first post and im just a beginner, so be easy on me guy. thanks



              i have a LED chandeilier that switches colors from white to cool white to warm when toggling the switch, it has 24 LED arms, each arm is 30 CM length.



              i have no datasheet at all for the LED lights, all i have is its length.



              long story short, testing the chandelier on the ground, and it works fine for 1 - 2 - 6 hours, no problem.



              as soon as i fix the chandelier to the ceiling and bury the driver inside the hub,...

              Vizio E55-F1 dark backlight zones. LED failure or Dimming Zone Driver?
              by howardc64
              Problem

              Fixing a dimming zone TV with LEDs not lighting up. Dimming zone circuit introduces added variable to diagnose LED and/or Dimming Zone Driver board? Some 1/2 rows of LEDs appears to be out in active dimming zone off AND some brightness flickering with active dimming zone high while playing changing video



              Model & Board Pics



              Conflicting Spec

              Vizio indicate this TV has 10 dimming zones. However, LED strips and Zoned light driver connector suggest 12

              Audio Driver for Thomson P14C4BK128
              by charif
              Need Audio Driver for Thomson P14C4BK128 (Windows 10/11)

              Hi everyone,

              I'm looking for help finding the correct audio driver for my Thomson P14C4BK128 laptop.
              The sound is not working properly, and I believe the audio driver is missing or not installed correctly.

              Here are the details:
              • Model: Thomson P14C4BK128
              • Operating System: Windows 10 64-bit

              If anyone has a working link to the driver or knows where I can download it, I'd really appreciate it.

              Thanks in advance for your help!

              how to install gl usb2.0 uvc camera device driver on windows 10
              by bohaboha
              Hello all am trying to reinstall my AMCAP Microscope on windows 10 but it is not working anymore. But the cam and the drivers are present in the Device Manager but there it saysWindows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39) the drivers is : gl usb2.0 uvc camera device driver and i also get this mesage: Windows found driver software for your device but encou​ntered an error.
              but it is quite strange because it did work on this same OS for one week ago and even for sometimes ago on that same but now nix.
              any help?

              Dummy loads for amplifier fault finding
              by Nevillet
              Hi All,

              I'm looking at upgrading my load resistors for power amplifier diagnostics and have a few questions:

              1. is it possible to use e.g. a kettle element as a load?

              and at the other end of the financial spectrum..

              2. Electronic loads - would they work?

              3. What's the gold standard method?

              Many thanks.
