Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use the HLG-185H-15 to power 15V LED strip lighting outdoors?
Yes. The HLG-185H-15 outputs 15V at up to 11.5A (172.5W) and carries an IP67 waterproof rating, so it can be installed in fully exposed outdoor locations including rain and temporary submersion. Its aluminium casing and -40°C to +90°C operating range handle harsh weather conditions.
Is the HLG-185H-15 powerful enough for large-scale 15V LED signage?
Yes. At 172.5W and 15V output, the HLG-185H-15 provides substantial power for channel-letter signs, light boxes, or cabinet signs using 15V LED modules. Its wide 90-305VAC input accommodates varying mains supplies worldwide, and the IP67 rating makes it suitable for outdoor sign enclosures.
Can the HLG-185H-15 drive 15V LED flood or wash lighting for building facades?
Yes, provided the total LED load stays within 172.5W. The constant-current operation with a CC voltage range of 7-15V ensures stable output for architectural wash lights. The IP67 waterproof rating and -40°C to +90°C operating range make it well suited for permanent outdoor facade installations.
How many meters of 15V LED strip can the HLG-185H-15 power?
Divide 172.5W by your strip's power consumption per meter. For example, a strip rated at 12W/m would allow about 14.3 meters (172.5W / 12W per meter = 14.375m). Always check your strip's rated power per meter and keep total load at or below 172.5W.
Can the HLG-185H-15 be mounted in an outdoor junction box exposed to rain?
Yes. Its IP67 waterproof rating protects against dust ingress and temporary submersion up to 1 meter. It can be mounted in exposed outdoor enclosures or directly in weather without additional sealing. The operating temperature range of -40°C to +90°C handles both extreme cold and heat.
What are the differences between the HLG-185H-15, 15A, 15AB, and 15B variants?
All four share the same 172.5W / 15V / 11.5A core specs. The base HLG-185H-15 has fixed output and IP67 waterproof rating. The -15A adds output voltage/current adjustment via built-in potentiometer (IP65). The -15AB adds both adjustment and 1-10V/PWM dimming input (IP65). The -15B adds dimming input only and retains the IP67 waterproof rating.
