Specs say 40 watt equavilnt from 3 watt led??? w &amp;

Yes that is right. Because of the lumens it guves. Dont get confuse with watts..its the lumens equivalency.

We are using 40 watt decorative bulbs with a conventional base. I would think that LED would work.

I ordered 2 of these, one was dead on arrival, which I returned. The other worked well in response to your question. It is a bit bright though, being 60W equivalent (40 would be better)

Yes you can use 40 watt clear and that is what is recommended. I went with LED to keep down on the heat.

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

Are you running 3 full standard 16.4ft, 150 led rolls/strips equaling 49.2 feet? Each strip is 3 Amps witch means the power supply must be 12v 9 Amps minimum. If you are over 49.2 feet you might need a stronger power supply or add another amplifier to the run. The amplifier output reads 12A but I've noticed that all diagrams never show more the two strips per amplifier. Good luck

LED lights have no listed wattage. Mine is a 20 inches with two sets of LEDS for a 35 gal aquarium-no live plants.

I'm not sure of the wattage but I can tell you that these LED are very bight, I used them as my turn signal lights and as day/night running lights..

The specs say 60 W. I'm using low consumption LEDs and they're working fine.

It says 3 60 watt but I used 3 CFL that equal 100 watt each output but utilize a lot less wattage.

The answer provided below is incorrect. The LED is rated at 72W for 5 meter strip or 2Amps / Color. For RGB, you are looking at 6Amps at 12v or 72Watts. The included 60W power supply (12V @ 5A) is under powered for 1 strip and in appropriate for 3 strips. If you are using 5m RGB 5050 LEDs with 72W rating as what is described in this product, you would need 72W x 3 = 216W to adequately supply the necessary power to light up 3 strips that are 16' in length.

It really depends on the bulbs. It takes 3 bulbs up to 60 watts each. I put in (3) 25 watt equivalent LED bulbs and that lights up our entry way just fine.

It's really hard to speak in terms of "watts" when addressing LEDs. It always comes down to lumens. I have the 24-36 Inch Marineland light and it keeps my moss balls quite healthy. This is due to the Blue light providing the specific wavelength required for vegetative growth. Rather than going forward in terms of "watts", calculate the lumens generated by the 120 watt you're told you need...then calculate the lumens generated by the lights you have and fill in the blanks with add-on modules.

LED'S draw much less current than a standard incandescent bulb. That's why they hyper flash when you install them without resistors. LED watts are measured in milli-watts. It depends on the LED lamp you buy. If it is a 1W lamp, then divide it with the number of diodes. These LED bulbs are probably no more than 2W or 3W bulbs. Hope this helps!

LED takes 5 Watts for 40, 7 for 60, and 9 Watts for 75. They will save you money on your electric bill

Its done, buy a new higher wattage one, add up the load of your LEDs and get an appropriate rated power supply
