An electrical ballast or driver is a device intended to limit the amount of current in an electric circuit.

 

A familiar and widely used example is the inductive ballast used in fluorescent lamps, to limit the current through the tube, which would otherwise rise to destructive levels due to the tube's negative resistance characteristic.

 

Emergency Lighting is now selling programable LED drivers that will allow your LED lighting to be dimmable. When your driver goes out let us know the milliamps of the driver and we can program the LED to the exact milliamps.

NiCad batteries are useful in applications requiring very high discharge rates because they can withstand such scenarios with little damage or loss of capacity. Nickel–Cadmium batteries are made in a wide range of sizes and capacities, from portable sealed types comparable to carbon-zinc dry cells, to large ventilated cells used for standby and motive power.

 

Compared to other rechargeable cells, NiCd batteries offer good cycle life and performance at low temperatures with fair capacity low internal resistance. Their true advantage is the ability to deliver practically full capacity at high discharge rates. However, their materials are more costly than lead acid batteries, and the cells have high self-discharge rates.
