The circuit was designed to work with an audio power amplifier which operated off +18v-0v-18v power rails. The actual voltage used is not too critical except that the feedback is referred to the LED chain which itself is anchored to a +12v rail, hence the separate stabilizer for this. It has one large advantage over most of the LED chips available - all the LEDs are in series so it only draws 20mA irrespective of the number of LEDs illuminated.
