We had the halogen downlights in our living room replaced with LEDs about 5 years ago, and one of them has just failed - it flashes on about twice a second. I'm guessing this is more likely to be a fault in the power supply than the LED light itself, so I'm wondering whether I can just replace the power supply with an equivalent.

 

The power supply is marked "Ecopoint UP-120250-DW Class II LED power supply.   Max 13 W Dimmable

 

Pri AC200-240V   0.072A    50Hz

 

Sec: DC23-38V    250mA   +-5%"

 

 

 

and the light itself is marked "Model EDL753K10W, DC29-32V  270mA   Power:10W"

 

 

 

Since this particular light doesn't seem to be available any longer, do you think a new power supply is likely to fix the problem, and if so, can you recommend one that would be suitable? The lights aren't on a dimmer switch. I'm in Wellington, but happy to mail order from elsewhere too.

If you can, swap with an adjacent working power supply to be sure that's the problem. Then just get in touch with your local JA Russell or equivalent supplier for a replacement, quoting the specs of the LED. Alternatively if it is the LED, they can probably recommend a suitable replacement, which will often come with a matching power supply.
