Light assembly for performing several lighting functions
A light assembly includes a power source and three series of lighting units dedicated to respective lighting functions. The light assembly includes a first driver and a second driver, connected in parallel to the power source. The first driver is arranged for applying a first power output to the first and third series of lighting units connected in series, based on a source power generated by the power source and the second driver is arranged for applying a second power output to the second series of lighting units, based on the source power.
