Choosing the right power supply

A power adapter is needed to connect this strip. It operates on 12V and requires a suitable adapter to convert the voltage. The correct adapter allows the intended performance and prevents insufficient power.

The adapter wattage must be higher than the strip wattage. Example: 5 metres = 48W, so a power adapter rated at least 48W is needed.
