1. A system to power electric loads, said system comprising:
one or more driver circuits configured to allow flow of current to one or more loads, each driver circuit comprising:
a voltage unit configured to receive an input voltage and provide one or more voltage outputs at a predetermined voltage value;
a current unit configured to receive any of the one or more output voltages and provide an output current to the load at a predetermined current value; and
a control unit operatively coupled to the one or more driver circuits via a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) Mesh comprising one or more processors operatively coupled with a memory, said memory storing instructions executable by the one or more processors to:
detect, at a predetermined proximity to any of the one or more driver circuits, one or more BLE enabled devices operatively coupled to the BLE Mesh; and
receive, from a BLE enabled device at the predetermined proximity to any of the one or more driver circuit, a combined analogue and pulse-width modulated dimming signal, such that the analogue dimming sets a maximum value of the output current and the PWM dimming allows the LED drivers to work for a range of load without changing the LED driver's configuration;
wherein, the control unit is configured to operate the current unit of the driver circuit to allow flow of current to the one or more loads; and
wherein, the one or more driver circuits are configured to store previous voltage and current readings pertaining to the combined analogue and pulse-width modulated dimming signal to determine optimum current requirements for the range of loads.
