What is the wattage or current draw of this item at 12V? (One 36 LED panel) Thanks in advance.

My lamp, shipped 7-2012, uses 3.24W, 270ma @ 12VDC. You have brought up my only complaint with this item. Because these SMDs are wired as 12 sets of 3 chips in parallel, and each chip should be driven at 20ma max, optimally this board should be configured to draw 240ma, which it does at 11.75VDC. At 12VDC each chip draws 22ma, or 10% over its design specification. Since autos often supply 14V, in some applications the 'bulb' will run hot and not last as long as it should.

I don't know the exact number but they use very little draw and are incredibly bright I really like mine I have the 36 and 48 LED panels in my truck cab and camper top I've left them on for hours with no noticeable drainage of the battery. Hope this helps

I hope I answer your question. This is installed in civic dome light, drawing on 12v. Just an fyi, the connectors are very flimsy. It works, just need to position connections exact.

This is a 30 Watt supply. It is fine for one 16 foot 3528 LED strip (typically consumes about 16W) I have also found that it is OK for one 16 foot 5500 LED strip (typically consumes about 22 Watt). This supply will not run even one 16 foot, high-power LED strip. (I have found that 5630 LED strip (16 foot) can consume as much as 42 Watts - The 5630 LED strip definitely overloads this supply)

If you use it on a 12V system, I=P/U=36W/12V=3A. If you need a wiring harness and switch, you can search B00HMYIEGY, B00GQOGQMA, B00JB69438,or B00KHJ8ZTC. They all works with the light.

LED's come in all different voltage ranges , most commons being 1.5 volts, 3 volts, 9 volts, and 12 volts. The output from the LED driver: *Input Voltage:110 -130 Volt*Output Voltage:12V DC*Power:150 Watt 12.5Awould imply that you are within the working range of the LED driver in that you are not exceeding 150 watts. Watts = volt amps, therefore amps = 60/12 = 5 amps. LED driver is limited by 12.5 amps, therefore you ar within the working range. Don't see a problem with your planned setup.

Not sure on watts, since that really doesn't matter on the 12 volt platform. I am not concerned with watts, only amp draw, as that is what the battery is supplying for. Normal 1141 BA-15 draws right around 1.6 amp hours versus these LED's which are drawing just over 250mA hours. Basically I can run one of these six hours on about the same amount of battery power as just one 1141 bulb! Or I could run six of these for one hour versus one 1141 for the same one hour on the same amp draw. Clear as mud right??

16 amps. 12V. But they are two position switches not three. There are three espades necause one is for the internañ blue led that turns on when swtiched fron off to on position. Hope this helps

Jon, I may have one available. It is marked as 12 VDC Output @ 500 mA. If you send a blank e-mail to Robert.applegate@comcast.net, I will send back a photo. My light burned up and was discarded.

The current rating is what matters as you can use these at 115V as well as 12V. My application was 360W at 83V so I was running around 4.3Amps. We had no failures in multiple days (probably 20 hours worth or operation). This socket was being heated by the bulb in my application much higher that what you are planning so probably it will take 50W at 12V with no problem.

The specs on the LED web page say the LED is rated for 3.2 - 3.4 volts & .02 amps. 9 or 12 volts is way too much. You need a resistor in series with the LED. For 9 volts use a 285 ohm resistor, or as near as you can find. For 12 volts, use 435 ohms, or as near as you can find.

I've been running one for about a year now, no problems except I was using the load output to control some outside lighting (on at dusk, off at dawn) and it seemed to get confused and was turning the lights on and off randomly. I disconnected it and let it sit for a day and then reconnected it and it has been working correctly since. I am running a 100 WATT 12V panel into it, are you staying within the maximum input power and voltage levels (12v/260W or 24v/520W) specified?

FYI, probably not as intense per LED than the epandahouse (Ebay) 12-chip white LED panel they have. 3.1 watts, ~250 lumens with 12 5050 LEDs.

It's a 12 volt system you can convert voltage into amps with an easy Google search. Another way is to tack it out with a voltage meter when the system is running it will also depending on the length of time on. I've left mine on overnight several times without any problem the next day. LED systems consume the less amount of power. Hope this helps

I am not sure wgich strip you are asking about. I bought the 300 led's and 600 led's. They are 24 watt and 46 watt. You need to use at least 2 amp for the 24 watt and 3.5 for the 46 watt. The formula to use if I remember it correctly is : Watts=volt X ampSo, at 24 watt, you divide 24 watt by 12 volts and you get 2 ampsHope this helps

Yes just make sure that you get 12v dc LEDs and think you need mor then one repeter each strip is 16 feet long and can draw 72 watts at 12v each

Power Draw is 14W. These LEDs are very bright and I am very happy with them. I have two and wished I had more.

It says the current draw is .06 amps. So according to Ohm's law: Watts = Voltage x Current. So, .06 x 12 = .72 watts.

Dear friend,Thanks for your questions.Yes, 12V 2A for 5meters 3528 300LED light strip,But 5A for 600 led.Please advise.If any questions please feel free to contact us.Thanks and wish you have a nice day!Best Regards,Emily
