Very interesting. That's an old model. Don't think I've ever seen it before. Thanks.

[@Eric_Tennant]

Thanks for watching!

Nice job man I have the same light

[@Eric_Tennant]

Thanks 👍. I have 2 of these and one of the big ones. As long as I can keep finding parts these will run forever. Have a other video where I rebuilt one of the drivers.

Yeah man I'm dealing with something similar. It's on a newer bar style light. Optic LEDs slim 320s (2 dimmers)
Anyways on lower voltage I have 2 rows of 5 led that don't light up, but when I turn it up to 100% it all works. I think the driver is bad what's your opinion? The kicker is this it's supposed to have a 10 yr warranty. The co. Told me to run it at 100% . Im of course pissed off

[@Eric_Tennant]

You could try shorting each led that out with a wire on the low setting to see if one led has a high resistance and needs replaced. Did they all light up on the low setting when it was new?

@@Eric_Tennant I finally heard back from the co. (Optic led) there mailing me two new boards. I think it's the driver myself. It's not pushing the same power at low voltage.

@@Eric_Tennant and yes it worked perfectly when it was new. 3 yrs later 10 diodes only work on high power the rest work like there supposed to. 5 diodes out on one side and 5 on the other. Well see what happens after I replace the boards
