Wayne K Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 (edited) Can anyone tell me on a LOR CTB-16D controller, will 1 channel control 1 C7 led bulb? I have several blow molds that use a C7 bulb in them and each one has it's own lor channel. I want to switch to led bulbs, but without ordering any, I don't have a way of knowing if they will work ok on this controller. The ones I am looking at say: Power Use: 0.58 Watts Can anyone confirm with this low of power use that they will work ok? Thanks Wayne Edited December 8, 2019 by Wayne K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDucks Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Not answering your Q directly 😕 WHY, for 1 @ 4W bulb per channel, risk the aggravation ? If this was a string of 25, ABSOLUTELY (although you might need 1 a hidden one as a snubber because of the older model controller) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would get longer bulb life and maybe a little brighter. I thought it was doubtful but thought I would ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And since the show is ON, I sure won't mess with what works at this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
