Do you know how many amps these draw?

Not sure, but I run 2 of them through one power point with a y-splitter adapter and it doesn't break any fuses.

you can't test amps like that. only volts. and you should be getting anywhere from 12 to 14 volts on a fully charged battery..

No, there aren't enough amps. These are meant to power small gadgets like cell phones.

I suggest reviewing the manual and contacting the manufacturer. Are you actually drawing any load? You have to have a load connected to see any amp draw. Thanks.

They draw about 2 amps each, so if you wire them into your reverse lights, just 2 of them should not draw more than most vehicles are wired for. They'll be more than bright enough.

to find amps=2500 watts/110volts or 22.72 amps, so i not certain what is the correct amps used

I don't know for certain. The electrodes are 0.5 mm larger than the regular unit, which suggests they were designed for higher current, but I haven't seen any data on the power output.

I would say no. I could not find current draw info ,but I had 2 strings attached to the 30 watt supply and went thru 2 of these power supply's. They kept failing. I just switched to a 100 watt supply. Without seeing current draw on these 16 foot strips, it is hard to say for sure how many watts will be required. I would start with the 100 watt supply. Or if you can find the current draw of a single 16 foot strip, just multiply that by the qty of strips and that times 12 volts. That will give you the total wattage power supply needed. Example. If each strip draws 2 amps, and you use 5 strips, then 10 times 12 equals 120 watts. You will need to find the current draw to be sure. I would say no.

They are 12 volt lights and we only have them one when we open a compartment in the Motorhome. So I have no Idea how many amp per hour.

It seems to me that the strips are over-rated for there power draw. I have one string of 300 3528's that are rated at 24 watts, but only draw 1.2 amps (14.4 watts). I have another double density (600 3528's) and it is rated at 48 watts, but draws 1.9 amps (about 24 watts). Both are run from this power supply set to 12.0 volts. So if your strips are the 300 3528's, then this power supply will easily power them with some spare.

Each light will draw approximately 10 amps. If you know the amp/hour rating of your battery, you should be able to make a fairly accurate estimate of how long they will light. Hope this helps.

The majority of an AVERAGE household's high-amperage draw items (air conditioner, washer, dryer, refrigerator, portable heater, hair dryers, microwaves, toasters) do not draw more than 15 amps. That has been the standard for all the houses I have been in. Yes, there are items you *might* need 20 amp service for, but they would be the exception to the normal.

Hi More than enough if I counted my fingers correctly (ha ha) those two should draw less than 5 amps together(4.7 amps) this power supply will more than run the lights. You picked a good choice! I have one, love it!Oh! I almost forgot make sure you are using #14 gauge multi strand wire with an inline fuse holder with a 5 amp fuse it it blows go to 7 amp fuse.

It says 35 watts, but I'd like to know how that transfers to amp draw per hour.

being a master mechanic. I can only suspect without seeing the condition of the system but my experience Is up your fuses to 15 amp. if it blows these the problem is in the wiring not the bulbs. these are designed usually to draw much less than traditional filiment type.

12 volts. 0.8 Amps. They move a lot of air but are loud. I SAID, THEY MOVE A LOT OF AIR BUT ARE LOUD! Using a PWM with them helps.

I read some of the other responses..you don't need a relay with these lights, they only draw about 2 amps total.
