The surface temperature range of our strip lights is 68° – 104° F. To calculate how much power you’ll need from the power supply, just multiply the Watts per foot by the total length (24 in this case). We recommend loading the power supply only to 80% of its capacity, so if you used a 60W Driver, you’d only want to put 48 Watts on it. The longest continuous section of strip should be no more than 16 feet, but you can put all 24 feet on the same power supply, you just want to ensure that every 16 feet of strip is wired back to the power supply.
I intend to install LED lights under our cabinets. I need a total of 24 linear feet of lights, but this will be in 3 different areas. How many feet will 1 transformer handle? What is the temperature of your light strips?
