Elemental's 12V Driver provides the steady voltage and high efficiency needed to get the most from LED lights. All our 12V LED drivers are energy-efficient, eco-friendly. All the drivers on this page have an IP rating of IP67, which means that they're water resistant and wet location rated, perfect for outdoor use. Our 12V LED power driver is highly efficient and provides extremely steady voltage, so no more flickering lights. All of the LED drivers are solid state, which means they do not have any moving parts, will last longer than a switching power adapter, and draw power only when the attached LED light fixtures are turned on, which eliminates phantom energy consumption.

If you're working with a permanent low voltage LED lighting installation, it's vital to use a Power Driver that provides a steady current. The Driver/transformer is a hard-wired power source for your indoor LED lights that is typically placed inside a wall or ceiling, in the attic or under the house, but is also compact enough to tuck into a corner. Think about using this outdoor LED driver near a pool or hot tub, with a water feature, in a garden or as part of landscaping, in a greenhouse, or anywhere your lighting setup will be exposed to moisture and the elements.

    I just completed my second interior cabinet lighting project using brighter LED Light Bars and Elemental LED drivers. In the latest project, I used 8 Brighter LED Bars, and a 35 watt driver. Easy to order, easy to install, and it works great.
  2. Works well

    I have 4 of these drivers powering 162 watts of lights per driver. The whole setup works great.

    (Used one 160W and one 50W) Having never done a project like this, I had many questions. Not much documentation comes with the product, but the customer service folks are knowledgeable and very helpful. Terrific product for helping us out with our kitchen project.

    Due to my ignorance I ordered the wrong driver for the remote dimmer. Once I got the correct driver everything worked just as I wanted. Installation was simple but due to the heat of Texas the running of the wiring in the attic required some sweating. I had three cabinet groups to get power to so I could install under cabinet lighting. To do this for two cabinet groups I had to run wire up and over in the attic.
    I used the following Element LED components:
    High Density Flexible LED Strip light spool
    Color Neutral White
    Finish Copper EL-HDSTRPSP-NW 1
    12V Dimmable Driver
    Wattage 60W EL-12VDRVR 1
    Remote Control LED Dimmer Switch EL-RCDIM 1
    AC Power Cable EL-ACPWR 1
    Flexible LED Strip Light Splice Connector
    Strip Type Standard
    Length 2 ft. EL-STRPSPLC2-STD 2

    From Home Depot I got a 50 ft of 16-2 low voltage wire.

    From Radio Shack I got a Barrier Strip and a Jumper Strip so that I could easily take one input from the dimmer switch to the three wiring runs. You will have to use a hack saw to cut the Jumper Strip in half to create a wiring side for both the plus and minus connections.

    Since there was a double electric outlet behind my microwave oven, this was a very convenient place to hide the driver, remote dimmer switch, and wiring.


  8. Easy to install

    Wired 35W driver to a switched 120V outlet by adding a plug to the 120V leads. Combined the leads from my three low voltage branches to the driver with small wire nuts. Mounted it in the cabinet over my fridge and it does a great job driving about 9 feet of strip LED.
  9. 60W 12V driver

    It was easy to hard wire both the 110V and 12V leads. It powers our under cabinet kitchen strip lights as intended.

  1. Are any of these drivers dim-able?

    If the light load is switched between 10 to 80%, will it damage the driver?
    What is the efficiency of the driver if it is used down to 10% of full power?

    Thanks, Gerry

    From Guest at 12/22/11 11:43 AM
    These drivers are essentially dimmable when using our Reign 12v Dimmer Swiches or our 12v Inline Dimmer Switch.

    Please keep in mind these switches do have wattage limits.
  2. While there is a maximum 80% rec capacity, is there an MINIMUM output/daw requirement?

    From Tim at 8/9/12 12:17 PM
    There is no minimum requirement on our electronic 12V driver

    Thank you
  3. Can the 35w driver be used to power mono rail track lighting with two led pendants.

    From jim at 3/29/13 2:19 PM
    We cannot guarantee the compatibility of our product with the product of another company. In theory however, these Drivers may be able to power an LED Light Fixture like the Mono Rail Track Lighting System. The LED Lights within the fixture would need to be 12 volt DC LED's.

    Thank you.
