I have them Wired directly to 12v.... And each peice desea Less than .06 Amps so 100 lights would be 6 Amps +/- at 12v

Hello CHRIS Generally used 12V2A power. I hope you can be satisfied with our answer, thank you. lisa

I used the one I bought for 4 desktop computers and 4 monitors. I bought the highest rated outlet strip. If the outlet will handle it, this power strip should

Yes, I run one and a half of the 5050 strips. I could run two or more of the lower output strips but each of the full 5m 5050 strips uses 72W so I wanted to leave a little headroom.

The included power supply provides 5 amps at 12 volts, each strip uses about 2.6 amps at full brightness, so connecting 3 strips will work, but they will become dimmer at the ends when you make them fully bright. To connect 3 strips to 1 single power supply you must buy one that can provide at least 7.8 amps at 12 volts, or your led strips will not be as bright as they could be. This power supply will power 3 LED strips: http://www.amazon.com/Power-Adapter-Prong-Output-3224-12V/dp/B0057KIHAI/ This adapter will let you connect the controller in the middle instead of at one single end: http://www.amazon.com/Ledwholesalers-Splitter-LED-Changing-Strips/dp/B0077IPRAG/ Hope that helps! :)

Hi Williams castillo Is each of your LED strips is 24 watts for every 5m? Then just sum the total and as you can see the led driver is 100 watts from the power output so if you use 4 strips you will be ok (96 watts) and within the range of the driver

I think you will need to have a repeater of some sort. I remember reading somewhere that you can only have two strips connected to one power supply. I also don't know how your power supply holds up so I wouldn't suggest more than two, One of my power supply starts to burn up after a while and it is only connected to one strip so the quality of the power supply is questionable.

Yes you should be able to. The strips interconnect with one another, so one transformer can run multiple strips. I've had several connected linked together--all being powered by only one power pack. I'm certain 8 would be no problem as even elaborate Christmas LED light strings can connect upwards of 13 or more. Hopefully that helps.

Only one strip, you could maybe get away with two. You'll need to purchase an RGB amplifiers for the additional strips

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

Yes ... I used this power supply to power (3) strips with a signal booster placed inline with the three strips.

Use 60W; the strips are rated 1.5W/ft and have 16.4ft lenght for a total of 24.6w per strip. This yields slightly above 48w so you should buy the adapter oversized (hence 60w).

Look at the information on your light strips it should tell you how many watts each strip uses and then you can decide what size LED driver that you need to power them all.

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

You need a 6 amp power supply for each full strip of lights. If you intend to have all 7 sync'd to the same color then you need six of these

Power chord: HitLights 24 Watt LED Power Supply Driver Transformer, 110 volt AC to 12 volt DC Output Adapter: Gino CCTV Camera 2.1x5.5mm Female Power Adapter 10 Pcs I'm not sure if one power cord can power all 4 strips so you might want to buy more than one. You'll probably want to get some heatshrink wire wraps to cover the wires that connect mutliple strips.

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.

You can plug two of these into a standard two outlet wall connection. Not sure about a power strip.
