Not adjustable: While every HLG series is adjustable in some way, not all drivers have this option. These drivers always operate at their rated current without an option to dim them.
Internally adjustable (A series): The top driver on the photo. Under the rubber cap in the top right corner, it has a built-in potentiometer for adjusting the light intensity with a screwdriver. This is done by changing the current the driver provides between 30% and 100%. The water-resistance rating is lower due to the extra opening (IP65 ).
Externally adjustable (B series): Notice the extra cable coming out from the driver’s bottom right side. That is connected to a 100K ohm linear potentiometer used for dimming the lights. It has a higher waterproof rating: IP67 and a wider range of dimming: 15% to 100%, but requires soldering.
While the better water-resistance of the externally adjustable driver sounds great, you will have a hard time finding a waterproof potentiometer. And why would you spend extra money and effort to make a dimming circuit when you can easily hack an external knob on an internally adjustable driver?

Converting an internally adjustable driver into an externally adjustable is by far the easiest solution for dimming. You only need a nail, a tire air valve cap, and some grease. You will also need to use glue, a metal saw, and a rasp.
