HLG-60H-54a is one choice you have. Your current drivers are 48 watts, so you may need to turn it down just a tad. This one is 60 watts.

Your driver says 25-42v but then it says uout: 55v , so im not sure exactly what voltage your lights are.

Thank you for your reply...I will check it out and see if I can find one with lower voltage. The panels have 2 positives and 2 negatives coming from them...I'm guessing I can tie each set of two wires to the driver?...most drivers have only 3 wires to connect,not 4.

The drivers have 3 wires on the AC input side to go to the wall outlet. The DC output side has 2 wires. You would put a Wago connector on the +/- and connect your panel to the corresponding wagos.

Ya, I'm lost with all of this. I cant find one that matches what was inside prior. I'll look for a different light that comes assembled lol. Thanks for the help, but this is not my domain.

The XLG-50-A is an almost perfect drop in replacment.

55V is the EMF/OCV rating of the driver

The driver has two leads for pos and neg. If you light has one panel you connect both reds and blacks to the one panel. If you had two in parallel you connect 1 back and 1 red to each panel.

I'm not sure how its wired, I dont want to cause afire, I thought it was simple to replace the driver, but the risk isn't worth the small savings...I'm going to get a new light instead, seems safer than trying to fix these ones!
