True Watts-

Most LED makers rate the wattage of the LED instead of the driver.

Example - if there are 10 watt led's used in the light fixture, and there is 150 of the 10 watt LED's, then 10 X 150 = 1500 Watts, so they say its a 1500watt light. In reality, the "DRIVER" in the light fixture only pushes out 100watts......And not 1500 watts.

So the "True Watts" is 100 Watts......the amount of power the light actually pulls from the wall.
You’re amazing! Appreciate this info!
