Could this power supply run a small dc motor that pulls about 1.2 amps? Or is this for LED strips only?

I tried to run a higher amp motor and no go, my guess would be it's only for LED's.

It's a good standard power supply that will power pretty much anything that runs on 12 vdc. It's always a good rule to use a power supply that's rated at least double the current load connected to it. In your case you would have plenty of reserve power to run some other things at the same time.

I would think it would not be a problem, anything that requires a 12 volt dc power supply should work as long as it doesn't require more than 10 amps

It is rated at 48 Watts for the 5 meter strip. So if you plan on running the entire strip on one power supply, you will need a power supply that delivers 4 amps minimum @ 12 VDC.

It depends on how many LED strips you are working with. I have found these to only pull about 0.44 Amps for a 300 LED strip. You could have 10 strips tied together on one power supply and you would still only be pulling 4.4 Amps total. I have also found that when you tie full strips together you get a roll off on the tail end so the lights are not equally lit. You have to wire these parallel to avoid this issue, or that's what I found by working with these great new LED strips.

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

The LED strip only has a molex connector; this requires a power supply inside a computer to power it. You would rewire the strips to be powered by another 5V source, but I would go with a different DIY solution.

I have hooked 3 up and it was 2 amp i have not tried 4 but it should work leds are very low power usage

These are SMD LEDs, which are designed for 12.0V-DC. The will, however operate on as little as 9V, up to a maximum of 18V before damaging them. They are DC ONLY! Running on AC current will damage them permanently. Also, 16.4' utilizes roughly 24W of power, and requires 2A output minimum on the power supply. If you are running these from the RV battery bank or the alternator, you will have more than ample power to supply several of these strips nightly. I am running six strips of these lights, one of them 24x7 from a bank of two 100Ah deep-cycle batteries, and the draw per day is only 12% of my total off-charge capacity daily. One strip can be ran for 4-days or more, without recharge! In an average RV setting, 4-6 hours per night, two batteries will supply the several strips for a week without need for recharge.

The specs on the factory supplied power supply are output 14VDC, 4 amps. It's a switching power supply and the power connector is 7/32". Very common for computer power supplies. The amp is rate 12-14 volts. This might work fine: http://www.amazon.com/12-Volt-Power-Supply-Standard/dp/B009ZZV6TA

According to the product package one power supply can handle up to 36 watts and each LED strip is only 3 watts so you should be able to connect 12 in sequence without any problems.

Hi More than enough if I counted my fingers correctly (ha ha) those two should draw less than 5 amps together(4.7 amps) this power supply will more than run the lights. You picked a good choice! I have one, love it! Oh! I almost forgot make sure you are using #14 gauge multi strand wire with an inline fuse holder with a 5 amp fuse it it blows go to 7 amp fuse.

I run two 5050 17.4 feet HD RGB strips. Thats 600 LEDs that has been running for over two years with a 12v/10A power supply. I have never had a single issue with it. The power supply can be found here > http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007C055BK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc;=1

This strip is powered by a 12 volts DC converter, so as long as your power supply has an output of 12vdc then I would not hesitate hooking them up. This is a very versatile set of lights. Have fun with them.

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)

That sure is a good Question. I checked the product again and it does not state how many amps. I am going to use it with my LED light strip which only has a couple of amps but I would not use it for something bigger.

This will only work with mono colored Led strips. It will work with power adapters with 12V adapters needed for most led strips with a max of 12A.
