Elemental LED OMNIDRIVE BASICS ELV 12V 60W ballast

SKU CH-KBCX-881EQ

12V 60W ELV ballast with flicker-free dimming and wide dimmer compatibility

  • Product typeBallasts
  • ELV dimming works with many popular dimmers
  • 60 W output powers low-voltage linear lighting
  • 12 V DC matches standard LED strips
  • Flicker-free dimming gives smooth light control
  • Value-engineered design keeps installation simple

Value-engineered ELV power supply

The OMNIDRIVE BASICS unit is a 12 V, 60 W ballast designed for quick installations that demand ease of use with wide dimmer compatibility. It targets installers who need a straightforward driver for static-colour, low-voltage linear lighting from Diode LED. Buyers requiring higher wattage or programmable output should consider a different model.

Sustained-load behaviour

The power supply delivers flicker-free dimming across many popular dimmers while maintaining steady output for continuous runs of linear lighting. Its value-engineered design prioritises reliable everyday operation over advanced tuning or thermal headroom for extreme environments. Installations needing constant-current regulation or active thermal management are not addressed by this unit.

Deciding specification

The single figure that determines fit is the 60 W rating at 12 V; the driver must match the total load of the connected LED strips. California Proposition 65 notes the presence of a chemical known to cause reproductive harm. Systems that exceed this power budget or require a different voltage will need an alternative supply.

Questions about this item

How much power does the 12V 60W ballast draw when running continuously?

The unit is rated at 60 W output on the 12 V rail, so sustained load will not exceed that figure.

What low-voltage linear lighting must I already own for this ballast to work?

It is designed for all static-colour, low-voltage linear lighting from Diode LED.

Will the OMNIDRIVE BASICS dim smoothly with the older ELV dimmer I already have installed?

It offers wide dimmer compatibility and flicker-free dimming with many popular ELV dimmers.
