i have meanwell 60-48D, using a potentiometer and when i dim it all the way down you can still see that the led has current flowing through it.

Whose right and whose wrong

I have 8 inventronics drivers on my lights and they will not dim to complete zero ( as in OFF ) unless the power is cut to the driver by my controller. The best solution for your situation Kevin is to have a timer to turn off the power to the driver.

I do have a controller. But I like it when it start at 10% and off at 10%.

That's what I have mine set to do as well, controller turns power on / off at 10% on all drivers.

I think mine is more than 10%. Too bad its can not be dim down to zero (no lights) so the fish wont get scared.

Do you have all your LED's on one driver coming on all at once?

i dunno i know when mine are dimmed all the way down it stills has a glow no light just glows.
