I have dimmers on some 12v under-counter arrays I made for the kitchen in our house. Absolutely no failures....but I'm driving them with 120AC to 12V power packs, so the LEDs see a constant 12 volts. Used exactly the same LEDs on the boat and experiencing the burn out problem. Not really a surprise as the charger keeps the house bank at just over 13 volts. Buck regulator looks like the solution....but which one...
