1. An LED driver (10) comprising:

  • a. a rectifier (14) adapted to receive an AC line current and to rectify said AC line current into a DC current;

    b. a switching LED driver circuit (20) operatively connected to said rectifier (14) to receive said DC current, said switching LED driver circuit (20) being adapted to produce a DC output and including output leads (26) adapted to be connected to an LED load (28);

    c. a user control means (34) operatively connected to said switching LED driver circuit (20), said user control means (34) providing an interface between an end user of the LED driver (10) and said switching LED driver circuit (20), said interface comprising on/off means for on/off control of said DC output;

    d. a configuration control means (22) comprising means adjustable by an end user of the LED driver (10) adapted to adjust the output voltage and/or output current of said switching LED driver circuit (20) to match various voltage and/or current level requirements of an LED load (28);

    e. said user control means (34) being adapted so that said on/off control and said interface are relatively accessible to an end user of the LED driver (10) during normal operation of the LED driver (10), and said configuration control means (22) being adapted so as to be relatively inaccessible during normal operation of the LED driver (10).
