Description
The 111 circuit has a single 11-bit resistive driver that offers 2048 (ideally) linearly-spaced, flicker-free light levels. Its flicker free range can be extended for example with a neural density filters (not included) to cover the some of dimmer intensities that 311 and 116 have.
In all other aspects, 111 is physically identical, one-to-one compatible and drop-in replaceable with all our other LogLED drivers. Overall, 111 is a good starting point driver if in doubt.

Safety information
General electrical safety principles apply. Pay attention especially on the following factors
- Never directly view the R30 LED near the max-power. Especially the IR and UV may appear dim to the eye but can cause serious harm or blindness.
- Prolonged +10 s use near the max-power may overheat the R30 emitter leading to its failure or making it too hot to touch. Do not leave the device unattended when near the max-power.
- Caution on extreme ambient conditions: At high temperatures above 35°C the device's cooling capacity is lowered and prolonged max-power use may overheat internal components. High humidity over 90% may causes condensation causing several issues such as corrosion and short-circuiting.
