REYLAX 24V LED Driver 150W (6.25A) – 240V to 24V DC constant voltage power supply
Product description
What it is and why you’d buy it
This REYLAX 24V LED driver is a constant-voltage DC power supply designed to take mains input (240V, 50/60Hz) and provide a steady 24V output. In real terms, it’s the sort of component you use when your lighting needs a reliable low-voltage supply, rather than a driver that focuses on dimming or more complex control.
On paper, its headline is straightforward: it outputs 24V DC at up to 6.25A, with a maximum output of 150W. That makes it a practical match for many 24V systems where you’re aiming for consistent brightness and a neat installation.
The essentials at a glance
What stands out here is the approach to stability and protection. The driver is described as having internal circuitry for overvoltage, overheat, overcurrent, and short-circuit protection, with the goal of helping prevent the load from damaging the PSU. It’s also said to avoid interference, and there’s no mention of flicker, noise, or a minimum load requirement—useful points if you’re building lighting that needs to feel “solid” day to day.
There’s also a clear “install anywhere” mindset. The unit uses a compact design and an ultra-thin honeycomb-style frame intended to help dissipate heat, which matters when you’re fitting LED gear into tight spaces.
You’ll also want to note the setup constraints: this model is described as not dimmable, and it’s specifically positioned for constant voltage power supplies rather than dimmable or colour-changing lighting products.
What you’ll notice in installation
This is the kind of LED driver that tends to be chosen for enclosed or semi-enclosed installs—things like cabinets and wardrobe lighting, and even garden or outdoor-style low-voltage setups where you want the electronics to stay thermally sensible.
The construction details are fairly specific: it uses an FR4 fiberglass PCB board, protective paint treatment, precision welding, and terminal-block connections covered with translucent caps. The caps won’t magically make it waterproof, but they do suggest the manufacturer is thinking about safety and service life during normal use.
One practical example: if you’re wiring a 24V LED strip inside a kitchen cupboard and you need to feed it cleanly from mains, this kind of constant-voltage 24V converter is exactly what you’d be looking for—provided your LED strip or downlights are meant to run on 24V DC constant voltage.
Limits and who should be careful
Here’s the part that can trip people up. This REYLAX driver is constant voltage, and it’s stated as not compatible with dimmable or colour-changing lighting products such as dimmable LED lights or colour changing light bars.
So it may not suit you if you’re planning to use any dimming control, smart colour-changing setup, or any lights that require a different control type. Also, pay attention to thermal efficiency advice: it’s recommended to keep the load below 80% of the maximum capacity. That means, in a cautious build, you wouldn’t just run it at the top end all the time if you can help it.
It may also feel a bit “gimmick-free” if you’re expecting extra features, the brief here is stability, protection and straightforward power conversion, not advanced lighting control.

Care, placement and practical buying checks
The listing suggests you can position it in a ventilated dry location or hang it on the wall. If your install is in a cupboard, housing, or other tight cavity, ventilation really does matter—this model is intended to be thermally managed, but it can’t fix a totally sealed environment.
Before you buy, double-check two things:
- Your lighting type: it should be a 24V DC constant-voltage system.
- Your load calculation: try to keep the connected load under 80% of the driver’s maximum capacity for best efficiency and performance, per the manufacturer’s guidance.
If you’re not sure whether your LED strip/downlight set is constant voltage or something that relies on dimming/control, that’s the key uncertainty to resolve first. Get that wrong, and you can end up with compatibility issues.
FAQs
Is this driver dimmable?
No. It’s described as not dimmable.
Will it work with colour-changing LED strips?
Not as specified. It’s stated as not compatible with colour changing lighting products such as colour changing light bars.
What input does it take?
It’s listed for 240V input at 50/60Hz.
How much load can I run on it?
The maximum is 150W, but the listing advises keeping the load below 80% of capacity to optimise efficiency and performance.
Is it suitable for enclosed spaces?
It’s designed with heat dissipation in mind (honeycomb-style cooling) and is described as suitable for confined spaces, but it should still be placed in a ventilated dry location.
Is it worth it?
You should buy the REYLAX 24V LED Driver 150W (6.25A) if you’re powering 24V DC constant-voltage LED strips, spotlights, or similar low-voltage lighting from a 240V supply and you want a straightforward, protected power unit for cabinet/wardrobe/garden-style installs.
You may want to skip it if your lighting setup needs dimming or colour changing features, because this driver is explicitly not compatible with those types of products. It’s also not the best choice if you’re planning to run it right at the maximum load continuously—following the “under 80%” guidance is the sensible way to get the most out of it.
