Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know which power supply I need for my LED lights?

Great question! The two main things to check are the voltage (usually 12V or 24V) and the wattage. First, make sure the voltage matches your LED strips or lights - this will be clearly marked on the packaging. Then, add up the total wattage of all the LEDs you'll be connecting, and choose a power supply with at least 20% more capacity. For example, if your LEDs use 40 watts in total, go for a 50-watt power supply or higher. Not sure? Just give us a shout - we're always happy to help you work it out!

What's the difference between 12V and 24V power supplies?

The main difference is how much power they can deliver, especially over longer distances. 12V power supplies are perfect for smaller installations like under-cabinet lighting or short runs of LED strip. 24V power supplies are better for longer runs of LED strips or when you need to power lots of LEDs, as they suffer less voltage drop over distance. Many of our more powerful LED strips and neon flex products require 24V too, so always check what voltage your lights need before choosing!

Do I need a special power supply for RGB or colour-changing LEDs?

Not exactly - you still need the standard 12V or 24V power supply, but you'll also need a controller that sits between the power supply and your lights. The power supply provides the electricity, while the controller tells the LEDs which colours to display. We sell both, so you can easily get everything you need for a complete colour-changing setup!

Can I connect multiple LED strips to one power supply?

Absolutely! As long as the total wattage of all your LED strips doesn't exceed the power supply's capacity (with that 20% buffer we mentioned), you can connect multiple strips to a single power supply. You'll just need the right connectors or a distribution amplifier for larger setups. It's actually more efficient to use one larger power supply than multiple smaller ones!

Are your power supplies safe to use?

Definitely! Safety is our top priority. All our power supplies are CE-certified and include built-in protections against overheating, short-circuits, and power surges. They're designed to automatically shut down if something goes wrong, rather than causing damage or creating hazards. That said, we always recommend having a qualified electrician handle installations that connect to your mains electricity if you're not confident doing it yourself.

Do you sell waterproof power supplies?

Yes, we do! Our IP67-rated waterproof power supplies are perfect for outdoor installations or areas that might get wet, like bathrooms or kitchens. Just look for "waterproof" or "IP67" in the product description. Remember though, even with waterproof power supplies, you should still install them in a relatively sheltered location rather than somewhere they'll be directly exposed to heavy rain or standing water.

What are dimmable power supplies?

These clever units allow you to adjust the brightness of your LED lights. They work with compatible dimmers or controllers to give you complete control over light intensity. They're perfect for creating different moods or when you don't always need full brightness. Just make sure your LEDs are also dimmable - not all types are!

How long do LED power supplies last?

A quality LED power supply, like the ones we sell, should last 5-10 years with normal use. They actually typically outlast the LED strips themselves! The exact lifespan depends on how many hours per day they're used, the operating temperature, and whether they're properly ventilated. Our power supplies are built with quality components and designed to dissipate heat efficiently, which significantly extends their working life.

Do your power supplies come with plugs attached?

Some do, some don't! Our plug-and-play power supplies come with a standard UK plug attached, making them super easy to install - just plug in and go! Our hardwired power supplies need to be connected to your mains electricity and don't include a plug. These are ideal for permanent installations or when you need to hide the wiring. Check the product description to see which type you're getting.
