what am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance.
Very interesting that your voltage is climbing the longer they're plugged in. I'm trying to work through a similar issue: one of mine is at 18V and the other is at 24V when the drivers are plugged in with no LEDs attached. I never left them plugged in to see what the voltage did over time. I haven't made any adjustments to mine.

I've yet to hear back from Martin with regards to the voltage out of the drivers, but it does seem odd.
