Are you sure the driver for the leds is bad, or did one of the leds in series go bad? Different drivers can be found at places like rapidled, nanotuners, ledsupply, etc

Driver/ballast....same thing in a way. What driver do you have now, or what retro kit/etc. Give me some details on the setup and I can help you find a new driver

So the box that says Potrans is what you need? If so that is a powersupply not a driver/ballast. http://www.mpja.com/prodinfo.asp?number=16854+PS
