Open Low Voltage Bus

Your devices work. The connectors don't.

Practical adapters for incompatible low-voltage power systems — starting with 24 V outdoor lighting and expanding toward an open bus for lights, controllers and sensors.

The idea

One low-voltage ecosystem

OpenLVB aims to bridge proprietary low-voltage connectors so lights, solar controllers, sensors and other devices can coexist.

What is OpenLVB?

OpenLVB means Open Low Voltage Bus. The project documents real-world low-voltage connectors and provides adapters between otherwise incompatible systems. Products are independently designed and are not affiliated with the manufacturers named for compatibility purposes.

Initial scope: low-voltage DC systems. Always verify voltage, polarity, current requirements and connector dimensions before use.
