Hello everyone,
I need your help on design a « power supply ».
Context : We are working on a product that we might sell one day : a grow light. We want to be able to daisy chain them and in order to reduce the weight and the cost, I want to « put out » the heavy and costly stuff.
Basically put the transformer outside the devices. The transformer circuit will deliver 48V AC and up to 20A. One main grow light will be connected on it. And another power supply circuit in this grow light will make that 48V AC into 48V DC regulated and be able to deliver up to 2A. And another grow light can be connected on that one (but it will take the power directly from the main source) etc etc.
But I dont know if what I am trying to do is possible and really cheaper and practical.
Please look at the attachements for more information. And please let me know what you think about it.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask. Thank you for your help.
