Review on πŸ’‘ LETOUR DC 5V 30A Power Supply: High Efficiency 150W Adapter for LED Lighting, Strip, CCTV - AC 110V/220V Converter by Travis Chavis

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Working but arrived damaged.

Pros: The unit works great and provides the 5v I need from the 120v my wall provides. It was easy to connect and I got 5.1v out of the box (which is easily adjustable). I'm using it to power 144 WS2812B LEDs that only draw 9A max, so I can't comment on how well it performs at a 30A load rating, but it works great for my purposes. Cons: It works, although it was dented upon delivery. If it wasn't what I wanted quickly I would have sent it back. The case has been bent into the board and I am concerned about reliability as it will stress the board where it shouldn't be. This side of the case also has one of the few openings that can be used to install a power supply. I wish I could give this one more stars because in the end it looks like a great product but unfortunately it will be difficult to install in a completed project. Tips: If you are connecting this to an Arduino or other board, don't forget to tie the grounds together. Otherwise the strip will behave very strangely and you will spend a lot of time trying to figure out why it isn't working. Or at least that's what a friend told me I wouldn't know because I completely pocketed it the first time.
