Lighting EVER Power Adapter, UL Listed, 3A, 120V AC to 12V DC Transformer, 36W Power Supply, US Plug Power Converter for LED Strip Light and More

I ended up ordering this because of the great price and the high review ratings. I planned on building my husband a backlit sign to hang in his office (the one he wanted cost around $1800 and I figured I could make it MUCH cheaper!). Now that the project is complete, I can say I’m extremely happy with this power supply as well as the LED strip lights that pair with it. In addition, I purchased the “LE Mini Remote Controller for Single Color LED” by Lighting EVER. I assumed I needed these both to be able to use the lights, however, this is not the case. I only needed the power supply. The lights will work without the remote but you just won’t be able to adjust the intensity or the flashing pattern. I’m sure the product description says this but I was in a rush when ordering and didn’t read the specifics. But, I’m glad I have the remote now. The power supply is very light so if you end up having to install your LED lights so that the power supply is hanging down to the outlet, it’s not going to put much strain on the light/power supply connection. When we installed the backlit sign on the wall, the cord was hanging down (the transformer was not touching the floor) and we’ve had no connection issues. For the price, you can’t go wrong. I think I have about $20 total into all 3 components from Lighting EVER. The products are easy to use and install. I’ll be buying a color changing set to install on the rear of my TV to illuminate the edges. Great product!

Plug and play, replaced a worn out one from another company. This one seems heftier so far.

I settled on this unit to use with a 16 foot LED light strip that didn't have its own power supply with it. To be honest I wasn't totally thrilled with any of the options I was seeing on Amazon - meaning that none were jumping out to me as the "clear" winner for a safe and reliable transformer. I am a bit more picky about this type of product than most as I definitely don't want an adapter that melts on me and could potentially start a fire!The majority of reviews on this product were positive and it wasn't *so* cheap that I had doubts about possible quality so I decided to go for it. I have been checking on this strip daily since installing it about 10 days ago. I don't generally run it for more than four hours of a time so I can't speak as to how it would fare if left on nonstop, but I am feeling comfortable with it for occasional use and not noticing any heat issues. If it does fail I will update my review but for now I'm a very satisfied customer. I will be buying a couple more of these to install light strips in other locations.

EE propective:I bought these to match the LE power under cabinet LED puck lights (3 leds in aluminum puck, 25W equivilent light)Supply worked straight away and provided good clean power for the LEDs. However the LEDs were too bright compared to my 25watt halogens they are going to replace so I tested with lower voltage. 9V seemed to be good, so I modified this unit to produce 9V by changing a resistor in the supply feedback loop on the inside the device. I'm a electrical design engineer with long power supply design experience so I felt comfortable doing this and voiding my warranty. not for novices due to the high voltage present on the input side.I did find a few cold solder joints on the heavy pins (transformer, inductors ,etc) that tool very little effort to break free. I suspect the failures reported are due to these since they were directIy in line with the part that supplies current to the output. I touched all these up with the soldering iron before reassembling the cover. It does take damaging the cover to get it off so forget warranty if you go this route.Overall does what I needed it to do. Should be able to power 4-6 pucks from this guy.Disclaimer:If you do this, it is at your own risk. I take no responsibility for you damaging the supply, yourself, friends family, coworkers, etc or property damage (like setting your house on fire).

I'm leaving similar reviews for each component in my project, so you might see it repeated on the other pages. I purchased these lights (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HSF66JO?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00) to replace an old fluorescent light in my pantry that was on a light switch. I used this transformer...you need this to reduce the house electricity down to 12V for these LED lights or else you blow them out. To hard wire it, I cut off the plug from the transformer, separated the blue and brown wires and stripped enough to connect them to the wires from the wall where the old light was (blue to white, brown to black)...turn off power to your light obviously first in order to work with these live wires. I just used double sided tape to stick the transformer box to the wall. Then I started connecting the LED strips. I also used a magnetic switch so the lights come on when the pantry door opens and turn off when the door shuts. (all the specifics are with my LED light strip review, look for same review title)Specifically regarding this transformer, there is a slight delay 1-2 seconds, before the lights come on. Since I'm using the magnetic door switch, the delay is totally unnoticeable because you are opening the door during that time anyway.
