Review on πŸ’‘ Brilliant LEDwholesalers 10-Inch Linkable Under Cabinet Light Set - Effortlessly Illuminate Your Space with 3X LED Strips in Warm White (1977WW) by Jason Flippen

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works great, but it's annoying that the seller doesn't offer anything.

Works great but kind of sucks, seller doesn't offer extra strips to add to this already VERY expensive set. (without paying for another adapter). The math here is simple and can be calculated in a number of ways. This adapter delivers a current of 0.8 amps at a voltage of 12 volts at the output. The lights consume 0.72W per strip, each strip has 9 LEDs. This is important as you don't want to draw or "consume" more current/amps than the adapter is providing which can cause the adapter to overheat. amps x volts = watts. Watts Γ· Amps = Volts etc. etc. Whatever you do, the math doesn't lie, so this adapter is 12V x 0.8A = 9.6W. Tiny, but enough for three strips. (So sell me some spare strips!) Each strip has 9 bulbs, the strip draws 0.72W or 0.06A PER STRIP. The power supply has an output of 9.6 watts. So 9.6 Γ· 0.72 = maximum 13.3 bars. With 9 lamps per strip, that is 13.3 x 9 = 120 lamps. Each LED consumes 0.08W. 120 x 0.08 = 9.5W, the power of our adapter. See how math is always supposed to work? So I buy a roll of 3528 12 volt bulbs plus plug and that's it. Since the actual LED lights are the same in this case (this kit and the 16.4ft reel), I know that each individual light draws 0.08W. I had an old adapter that fit perfectly, 12 volts to 2 amps. (DC) That's enough for 300 lightbulbs. All you need is a clip on the adapters and you'll be pulling up a kitchen for a fraction of the cost. If this dumb locksmith can do it, so can you!
