All the answers below mirror my experience. Works with mono LED strip without a problem. Bought another to control under cabinet lighting in my other house.

Honestly, I don't know the answer to your inquiry. I used the transformer to power low voltage landscape lights and it works famously. As for LED strips......I haven't a clue. Very sorry.

If you want to control RGB strip, you need the item (ASIN: B00HP0H4MA). Thanks.

I would say that as long as the controller supports the 24v input, then the strips will work. While I'm sure that others LED strips have tight tolerances, I've found that these can work with most anything you give them. These are essentially a row of LEDs that just have the power level ajusted per color. I just tested having two strips run off one controller (given, mine is a 12v 6a) and they work just fine. The white at full brightness is a bit 'dirty' because there isn't enough power, but otherwise it works. This thread goes into the power details a bit more: http://electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/19413

I've used both Insteon smart-switch dimmers as well as Lutron dimmers. They were not specifically speced for LED lighting, but they have been working fine for me.

I use the HitLights LED PCB Connector Box For 3528SMD connectors. They work great for connecting strips together once you figure out how to use them.

I have not tried it but at this paradise website I looked at an LED light, for example, and downloaded the manual and it appears to have the same controller recommendations as the halogen lights.

About any of the led strip supplies will work for this / these. I use the ones that look like PC lap top supplies. Lighting EVER® Power Adaptor, Transformers, Power Supply For LED Strip, 12V, 3A Max, 36 Watt Max . These are about $10.00 each. You will need about 30watts (<3 Amps) per strip. I have found the supplied controller will drive at least 2 strips pretty well. It is recommended not to use more than 2 strips in series (one plugged into the next.

At first the led strip is white. After a while it doesn't do white anymore. I don't know if this is what you are talkig about but thats something to think about.

I'm wondering the same thing. It does NOT power my LED strip, and I'm wondering what's wrong.

haven't seen the controller on Amazon, but yes, you can add a module that passes sound activated info to the strips with these pixels. here is a 12v version: http://goo.gl/n98gcJif you are not comfortable doing a little soldering or minor electrical work, there are sets that have the sound activation module built in.* note, if you are using the 12v sound module, I'd use the 12v version of the WS2811 lights... they come in 5v and 12v... it saves you time and heartache to use 1 voltage.

This is designed to control led strips but if your led lights are the same voltage as strips and have the four wire connector I gyess it would work

Yes, if you strip the wire carefully, the RGB LED Light Strip is easy to soldier to. The maximum run distance still applies though, so be careful as you add length that you have enough power to drive the length of wire you add plus the length of the RGB LED Light Strip.
