Will this run an LED strip light as well? Why does the description specifically state halogen?

I don't know, it did not work for me for what I was trying to do. Good luck. Pat

If the voltage and amperage specifications of this transformer match the requirements for your LED application, it should be OK.

This transformer is 12v AC output. You need DC output for your LED application.

I bought this transformer from a Amazon seller for one of my project but it is not working, So I don't know if it works for LED or halogen.

I never used this transformer for LED strip light. I use this transformer for halogen lamps. I have two 20W 12V halogen lamps connected to each transformer I purchased. I bought 9 of them in October 2012 and use them daily, but not continuous. They work great for now. I think if your strip light is around 40 watts it should work. Good luck with your project.

I can only reply based on experience, NOT on the item's actual capability. I know for certain that it requires a minimum load on it to work correctly. I have three 20W halogen bulbs on one and it works great. I tried to use it with one 20W buld and it did not work - it was simply off or on. As for LED bulbs, they are low Wattage. It MIGHT work if the Wattage of LED bulbs was at least 40 or 50 Watts. But that, is A LOT of LED light. Sorry I could not be more specific.

I don't know for sure, but it works fine for CFL/long-life bulbs. It works for any bulb that fits a standard light-bulb fitting and is for 120 volt systems. It doesn't have a circuit to change volts, so if the LED bulb takes 120V, I am sure it will work.

This battery will supply up to 3 amps (perhaps a little more) at 12vdc, so if your strip lights draw 3 amps or less it should do just fine =)

I would use the 12v 3A supply. The 9.6v 500mA does not have the proper amount of current to power the entire light strip.

The 100-watt halogen bulb is relatively energy efficient. Because the bulb is activated by remote control, I personally wouldn't take the chance that the circuitry might not cotton to the different current load imposed by an LED. I'm an ecology nut, and I use LED whenever I can...but in this application, I have nop qualms about running a halogen. Of course, you'll need to make your own decision in that regard. Best wishes!

No... it only has a receptacle for a halogen bulb. Unless they have just recently come up with LED bulbs that can use the same receptacle, you must use a halogen bulb.

As long as you do not exceed 12w per channel. Check the wattage on the leds. I would guess that a 5050smd strip would draw about 10w. You'll probably be fine.

The halogen bulb receptacle will accept the LED unit. The question is whether you have enough space to accommodate the other parts, ie. the LED device has a small fan that screws into the back of the LED lamp. you also need space for the ballast. The difference in brilliance is worth the effort. I don't know the amperage but I suspect that it's considerably lower

MR-16s are a 12 volt bulb so this transformer is required. Your contractor could have kept your halogens but opted to give you more efficient LED bulbs. This is an upgrade, and a good one if you use the lights a lot. LEDs like constant current typically around 350mA from an LED driver, but I'm not sure if the MR-16s have something to compensate for it as this would be the typical installation.

I am using this transformer to run some outdoor landscape lights.....using low wattage bulbs but this segment of lights has a halogen and several incandescent bulbs.....installed in water proof box with electric eye.....been hooked up for several months now

The package says that it works on "dimmable LEDs/CFLs & all halogens/incandescents". I dunno about LEDs/CFLs/halogens but it will do regular old 60 to 250 watt bulbs no problem, which keeps your old bulbs working longer so don't need to buy those new spendy ones.

There is no LED strip as you found out. The bulb in the center is a 194. Any parts store will have it. The halo lights are wired separate also. Also a pain in the behind to aim.

I ran 3 LED strips using 2 extension cables (PSU --&gt; Controller --&gt; Splitter --&gt; LED Strip --&gt; Extension cable --&gt; LED Strip --&gt; Extension Cable --&gt; LED Strip and it worked fine. Need to ensure you have the correct PSU Wattage for however long your strips are. NOTE: I have read online your maximum strip lengths should be @16.5 feet. However, using splitters allows you to maximize LED strips on one PSU. Just be mindful of the total wattage and do the math right.

I'm using CFLs but incandescent bulbs should work, too. Don't know about halogen.HTH, Jeff

To my knowledge, this bollard fixture by Paradise uses only a 10 watt halogen bulb. Have to buy a different fixture if you want a LED light.

Hi, yes it will work with halogen bulbs, dimmers get more life out of your bulb, they will last a bit longer ...
