Can I add more lights to track lighting?

Yes, sure you can.

Before adding more lamps, make sure you have installed big enough transformers in your magnetic track system. For example, you have installed a 350Watts capacity of power supply, and only fits in 100Watts of lamps for now. Surely you could place 200Watts more power of lamps in this system.

There is a separated driver for Each magnetic track lamp in the gear box with strong magnets. This driver's input voltage is DC48V which is the standard power system runs inside the magnetic tracks. This DC48V input drivers not just provides stable voltage and current to the LED chips inside the lamps, but also gives more functionality, such as 0/1-10V dimming, DALI control, Bluetooth wireless control, etc.

When you plug a magnetic track lamp into the system, the lamp will on. And you can control it by the corresponding control gears or Apps.
