LED Driver Help
One of the outside LED lights on our Office/Shop went bad. The driver for the light is NLA.
It is a Towin FS50W-42C1200 Class 2 (wet) driver. Input 100-277VAC 50/60Hz Output 1200mA / 26-42 VDC Uout max 44VDC P out 50.4W max There are a ton of them and I know zip about these. I am comparing the specs but nothing seems to match up. Any help is greatly appreciated. TIA

no expertise in LED lighting, some expertise in EE. A quick search leads me to this guy:

Does it need to be water proof?
https://www.hafele.com/us/en/product/dimmable-driver-e-series-12-v/P-00863707/#SearchParameter=&@QueryTerm=led+driver&Category=RNsKAOsF1dAAAAF.Gs7iJvmA&@P.FF.followSearch=9860&PageNumber=1&OriginalPageSize=12&PageSize=12&Position=8&OrigPos=17&ProductListSize=31&PDP=true Based on their number, you should be able to fine a vendor or buy on line. They wouldn't sell to you direct |

I have a bad LED fixture. Cost less than 20 new. The driver was 60. Didn't fix it so it's the LED board. Can't find the same trim. Done with china junk.

Thanks for the suggestions. Yes, needs to be waterproof. I have been on the TRC website for 2 days trying to figure out which I need.
Cheers

Good replacement:
https://ballastshop.com/espt050w-1200-42-z1-erp-power-cc-tri-mode-led-driver-50w-1200ma/ Probably good enough: https://www.trcelectronics.com/View/Mean-Well/LPC-60-1050.shtml Search for "50W 1200ma constant current led driver". You want it to be IP66 or IP67 for unlimited outdoor use.
