Ripple Specification Using a 24V LED Strips

I'm specifying your LEDs into a retrofit application. The power supplies are full wave rectified and smoothed toroidal from Q-train and I would like to know your specification for a maximum 120 Hz ripple voltage when using your 24-volt strips.

Our 24 volt LED strip lights are rated for DC and PWM waveforms only, however, I do not believe that there should be any issues with using a magnetic LED driver with our products as long as the maximum voltage does not exceed 24 volts at any point during the input signal cycle. (I.e. < 24 volts absolute, rather than < 24 volts RMS or otherwise).

On a related but separate note, we have received numerous customer inquiries concerned with flicker produced by magnetic LED drivers at 2x line voltage frequency. Should you have any requirements with respect to flicker performance, we may recommend reviewing those specifications in the context of using the existing magnetic LED drivers.
