Sizing formula
- Total watts = strip length x watts per meter.
- For US planning, convert length first: 1 meter is about 3.28 feet.
- Choose a power supply above the total calculated load; a 15-25% reserve is a common planning range, but product documentation and installer judgment matter.
Compatibility checks
- Voltage must match: 12V strip with 12V power supply, 24V strip with 24V power supply.
- Check indoor/outdoor location and use an appropriate enclosure or IP rating.
- Check dimmer/controller compatibility before buying the power supply.
Ask for a compatibility checkSend the project type, dimensions, length, voltage, watts per meter or foot, IP rating, profile/diffuser preference, dimming needs and photos. Use the Ledux contact page for the current recommendation path: Contact Ledux.
FAQ
Can I use a bigger power supply?
Yes, if the voltage matches and the installation is correct. The LED strip draws the current it needs; the power supply rating is available capacity.
What happens if the power supply is too small?
The system may flicker, dim, overheat, shut down or fail early.
Should installation be done by an electrician?
For mains wiring, outdoor locations or complex projects, use a qualified installer and follow local electrical rules.
