This new AC LED module has a build height of only 10 mm. technically, it is a new driver technology, but also most importantly, it is now flicker free and meets the current standards.

Background of ADA AC FF

It has been well documented that flicker has a negative impact on humans with some affected more than others. With many studies showing the importance of good and functional light, especially for children and adolescents, it is very important to get this right in order to improve wellbeing and productivity.

All professional LED solutions rely on the use separate drivers & power supplies to manage power and light flicker. These, however, take up a significant amount of space in the lighting fixture, especially where design and space is important.
