Click here to view a chart in PDF form that shows how many feet of LED strip light or how many LED light fixtures each of our 12V plug-in adapters and hard-wired 12V drivers will power.
The information on this chart expresses how many feet or fixtures can be powered given a certain amount of wattage. For optimum performance, however, Elemental LED recommends that you do not load the power supply to more than 80% of its labeled rating.

LED Christmas lights typically include a plug-in 12V adapter at the end of the string. So the power conversion is already included in the housing of the product.
Why don’t my LED christmas lights use a 12v driver?
Yes, just be sure the transformer supplies steady 12V DC current.
Can a common outdoor 12V transformer and wire attach (via the connector) and work with the scissor-cut LEDs?
Yes, you can. However, the light will be more dim than if you use a 12V power supply.
