LED ribbon supply

In order to guarantee the correct operation of your LED strips for maximum duration, it is recommended to use special LED power supplies of 12 volts DC (12V DC).

Depending on the type of LED strip and its use, you will need to choose between a waterproof or non-waterproof transformer. The waterproof is to be used in a potentially wet room (bathroom).



The length of the LED strip you want to install, will make you choose between the different type of transformer. You will need to make sure that the sum of the powers of all your LED ribbons + 15% margin, will be lower than the power of your transformer.

Taking a more powerful transformer will not consume more! If you install a 25 W transformer, it will consume only 15 Watts of your installed LED tape. Click here for more information.
