1. A combined power supply and driver control module, comprising: (a) a first connection for connecting the control module to an input power source; (b) a rectifier circuit connected to the first connection for rectifying input voltage received from the input power source and providing a rectified output for producing a DC power; (c) a switching device configured to receive the DC power and modulate input current received from the input power source; (d) a driver circuit connected to the switching device for providing an output power to a load; and (e) a second connection for connecting the control module to the load.
