Do these support 12volt ac? Want to use them in a low voltage exterior step light. Similar to a landscape lighting system.

That probably wouldn't work. They are designed for DC as you know. But there maybe an AC replacement LED out there somewhere.

I use a similar LED in 12V AC (17 VAC peak voltage) landscape lighting and have for one year without a problem. You could always change out the transformer for a 12 volt DC.

All of the low voltage landscape lights I have seen are DC. If yours is powered by a "transformer box" that plugs in to the wall, it is probably DC also. The box (if you have one) should list the input and output voltages (and AC or DC) on it somewhere. Of course the base would have to match also.

These are 12V (probably AC only) If you will have transformer to 12V they will work technically. If you have an isntallation with multiple MR16s and you would like to change it to LED I would recommend to change the transformer to LED version. Otherwise it may not work or if it will work you will decrese the lifespan of the bulb (I work for LED manuacturing company in EU)

Yes - listed as 12 V & they will also work in automobiles.I would find a bigger Wattage if you're looking for something bright.

These are for 12volt. Might be able get 6v LEDs but not sure. Hope this helps.

Robert, Others have responded, as to the base type, my concern would be that these are probably 12V DC and your path lights are probably 12V AC. I do not know if these have reverse voltage protection. You would probably have to ask the MFG.

I'm sorry. But are you sure you want to put strobe lights in your landscape. I really don't know if these would be wired into a 12 transformer for your landscape. I would write the company to find out.

The bulb works with 12 V DC only not with any AC voltage. You mention that your outdoor low voltage landscape lighting is AC if that is right the bulb will not work. I believe that you are wrong, all landscape lighting are DC,then the bulb will work. Recheck your outdoor system and if is DC (not AC) you are good to go !

These only work on 12 volt DC power. Not sure how to convert for 120 volt AC.

I use these on standard Low voltage Bollard lights (12v) from Lowes and/or Home Depot. Work great.

I installed them in a low-voltage outdoor lighting system. They worked regardless of base orientation.

I believe you would be fine with a 12V DC source. I have connected them to Malibu ligting transformers providing 12V outside of my home without any issue. I have also connected them to 110V A/C through the dimmable drivers sold.

No, these are pure 12 volt dc. They will not work correctly with an ac source..

The ones we bought are 12v. They plug into a socket/fixture that is wired to 120v but I believe the fixture has a step-down transformer. They have worked well for us.

They do make 12v led systems if that is what you need. Look up MR16 base lamps. They are the kind used in track lighting and in display spot lighting.

Your landscape transformer outputs 12V AC. Some LED lights need 12V AC, some will need 12V DC, and some will accept both. LED strip lights, for example, requires 12V DC. If you need 12V DC, I recommend you get one of these to get the conversion done. It is a very small device so makes it easier to hide. You can get it from Amazon. 72W Outdoor Waterproof Low Voltage Landscape LED Power Supply Converter/Rectifier, Input 12V AC to Output 12V DC A demo is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJzarYlOnPc?

Steve Horvath asked the question specifically about the 12VDC version of the light. LED Wholesalers sells a 12VDC, and a 120VAC version of the light. As long as your low voltage landscape lighting system can supply 12 volts DC (not AC), and can supply at least 10 watts of power, then yes this light will work fine.If, however, your low voltage system provides AC power instead of DC... then no.If your low voltage lighting system is 12 volts DC, make certain that you buy the 12VDC version of the light.

go to Ebay type 921 LED AC miniature and you will SEE many vendors , remember it has to be 12 volts AC not DC to be able to work to standard low voltage systems.
