Are constant voltage and constant current options available?
No. Only constant current models are available in the Hi-Lume 1% with Soft-on, Fade-to-Black line. Lutron's Hi-Lume 1% drivers do offer both constant voltage and constant current options.

Can a constant voltage driver be used with low-voltage MR16 LEDs?
You would not be able to control low-voltage MR16 LEDs with an external driver, even if they are constant voltage. MR16 LEDs have an internal driver and so only a transformer would be needed to drop the voltage down to 12 or 24V.

What are some of the differences between Hi-Lume 1% and Hi-Lume 1% with Soft-On, Fade-to-Black dimming technology?
Hi-Lume 1% drivers can be controlled through either line voltage dimming (2-wire and 3-wire options available), or through an EcoSystem data link. Hi-Lume 1% drivers with Soft-On, Fade-to-Black dimming technology can only be controlled through the EcoSystem data link.
Hi-Lume 1% drivers have models up to 53W while Hi-Lume 1% drivers with Soft-On, Fade-to-Black have models available up to 75W. Hi-Lume 1% drivers also do not have the Soft-On, Fade-to-Black features.
