Does it work with 12v yard light transformers? I am not sure if they are AC or DC

If you plan on putting these lights outdoor, you should absolutely leverage your landscape lights if you have them. Its way easier and cheaper than to use the standard 120V transformer. Your landscape transformer outputs 12V AC. You need 12V DC for the LED. I recommend you get one of these to get the conversion done. It is a very small device so makes it easier to hide. 1/3 the cost of buying the transformers and a timer to control it (or worst, trying to find an outlet for the transformer). You can get it from Amazon. 72W Outdoor Waterproof Low Voltage Landscape LED Power Supply Converter/Rectifier, Input 12V AC to Output 12V DC A demo is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJzarYlOnPc?

These lights are 12 volt DC powered. Your home is wired for 110 AC. You could use a transformer but probably not the best solution for your needs. These lights are hard wired and not plug in. All of the above aside, I am happy with the product and installed 6 of them on my boat.

Yes, there should be a 12 v transformer on your lighting strip which converts the 110 into 12 v. What kind of bulbs are you replacing these with and what do they say on them?

Yes the output is 12v dc, I use it for my landscape lighting. I also used another for my ikea halogen lighting. Note they are indoor use only. I had them outside in the cold weather and I got flickering when I dimmed them. When I put them inside the flickering stopped. Great product if you need it to dim lighting at 12 volts dc. Worked for me, hope it works for you. Good luck!

yes I have had them in a RAB brand post light rated for 120v but have a 12v transformer and they are great!

My unit is clearly marked as AC/DC 12V 10 amp. What is implied is that the control would work with either AC or DC 12 volt at a max 10 amp. This is probably a photo control for out door driveway lighting. For low voltage driveway or landscape lighting which runs on 12 volt AC or DC. Haven't tested mine yet but will advise you when I do.

I think the product spec is wrong. They will probably work on either AC or DC. If they were DC only they would never work as landscape lights, which are always 12 volts AC. Amazon should correct the title line.

This product used 120V AC power and converts it to 12V DC power. It will work for any type of 12V DC device. Beware though, polarity is important in DC devices. If it doesn't turn on at first, reverse the wires and it should work. Also, these transformers have a maximum load in watts. Be sure to know the watts of your string of devices. Do not overload the transformer. If you need to, buy two. That is the downside of using a lot of LED lighting devices. They may be cheap but the transformers and additional wiring can be expensive. Hope this helped.

Yes it works on 12v AC. It changes colors by pushing the pushbutton that activates your lights. You can basically swap this light bulb for your old standard colored bulb.

If you have a POE capable switch/router, I believe these require 24V. If not, they include transformers that use 110V.

Any 12 volt transformer will work. I use a Malibu unit that powers All of my 12 volt lights. I currently have about 25 lights around myHome

I believe you would be fine with a 12V DC source. I have connected them to Malibu ligting transformers providing 12V outside of my home without any issue. I have also connected them to 110V A/C through the dimmable drivers sold.

Probably both, but most lighting transformers put out 12VAC and I know that does works.

You need a 12v transformer. Mine are direct wired transformers that I have up to four lights wired to.

I have 12V DC lighting. The converter box plugged into the wall is AC however, it converts it to 12v DC. I replaced 7 watt bulbs with these. I have some lights with the 7w filament bulbs and some with these LED's. The LED's are very comperable to the 7 watt bulbs, if anything perhaps not quite as bright. I would say the output equivilant is is 6-7 watts.

Steve Horvath asked the question specifically about the 12VDC version of the light. LED Wholesalers sells a 12VDC, and a 120VAC version of the light. As long as your low voltage landscape lighting system can supply 12 volts DC (not AC), and can supply at least 10 watts of power, then yes this light will work fine.If, however, your low voltage system provides AC power instead of DC... then no.If your low voltage lighting system is 12 volts DC, make certain that you buy the 12VDC version of the light.
