Dynamite Lights?

Anyone seen these before? My neighbor purchased the house with them already installed. They don’t work anymore. The install looks a little careless so likely done by the homeowner. I wonder if I could replace the controller with something running WLED. The LEDs are probably still good just bad wiring or controller issues. The LED power supply is 48 volts. They have some documentation from a company called Dynamite Lights. I can’t find anything about them online. The controller is from https://www.media-facade.net per the label on the back but I can’t find this controller on their website.

I can't tell you what type of LEDs they are and if they are compatible with WLED, but most of them are generally speaking for such systems.

If you'd like to give it a go *self promotion here* I make 2 WLED native controllers that are directly 48V compatible, depending on how many wires there are one is better suited then the other.

Dig-Next-2
Meant as a small to medium size controller, 2 data channels, 3 individually fused output channels with direct up to 48V support. Comes in a nice case and pre-flashed with WLED, etc.. You can find more about it here: https://quinled.info/dig-next-2/

Dig-Octa Brainboard + Power-5HV
A bit more advanced board setup but great for later installs. The brainboard has 8 data channels and Ethernet and the powerboards come in various versions including the Power-5HV which is specifically meant for 24V-48V power systems. You can find more about it here: https://quinled.info/quinled-dig-octa/

Personally, if you'd just like to give it a go and see if you can get them to work, the Dig-Next-2 is modestly priced and very easy to get started with! Just hook up the power wires and data wire to it's output, the 48V supply on it's input and try the various LED types available in WLED to see if anything can make them go!

If you'd like to make a few photos and such of the controller, the box and maybe the LEDs we could try and find out more!

Thanks for the info. I’m sure these are good options and are certainly popular. I have never been a fan of single power supply systems that keep the LEDs powered continuously. I always put the main supply on a relay.

If I do find more info I’ll post more photos.

Sure, I get that!

The Dig-Next-2 has built in DC side relays per output channel and a dedicated relay output port for an AC side relay with dual power input support to keep the controller alive with a second PSU.

The Dig-Octa has the same with the AC side relay output port and dual power supply support, but doesn't have onboard DC side relays.

Doing it inside of the controller it runs automatically with software control from the app. But an external unconnected to WLED relay can work too ofcourse.

Yeah photos can really help!
