Fluval Pro LED Lights - PWM Walkthrough
#24
Ah there's the rest of it. Looks like that big transistor might be a MOSFET of some type, possibly those other 4 small ones as well. Can you read the part numbers off them so we can look them up? My guess is the PWM is driving those. Depending on the the MOSFET type it could be as simple as it controlling the GND to the LED's which is a common method.

How many controllable channels does that light have? I see 5 colors you marked so I'm guessing 5 which matches the number of transistors?

The 9.5v seems an odd voltage, is it 9.5v if light is full brightness and 50% brightness?

Hope you get the new boards soon, I see they were delivered in US last week, I thought USPS was quicker than Canada Post, I assume that's what you used to get it to Australia?
