Meanwell LPV-60-24 Sealed Panel Mount 24V 0-2.50A Power Supply with LED Driver

This is my second purchase for this product. Very reliable and delivers immediate power for my under cabinet LED lights.

These seem to be much better made than the cheaper 60W black no-name Chinese power supplies. You do need to add a 120V plug on the brown/blue wire to use an outlet. The red/black wires are the 12V output but you need to get the correct +/- orientation for it to work. Don't get the 120V input and 12V output mixed up. It might wreck the power supply but not sure if there is internal protection built in. I didn't want to try.I use these to power SMD 5050 LED strings and have not had one fail in two years.If used for RGB LEDs, try the mini color controllers sold on Amazon. They work great and are inexpensive. Other color controllers are the size of this power supply, offer fewer color options and are more expensive. Also need to attach a plug connector to the red/black wires for the mini controller hookup. The bulkier color controllers are usually hard wired to this power supply.

compact enough to be used as a replacement driver in many lights that I service

I have three white color under-counter LED strips that were running on a much more expensive power supply (WAC). My son recommended this one as a replacement because he said he has used these successfully in his LED projects. This appears to be solidly made and is working well so far. Easy to install, but very hard to find the installation instructions online. I guess they assume you don't need them.Only downside is this power supply converter (converts 120V supply to 24V for LED strips) is not enclosed in a grounded metal case like my previous supply. So, right now I have 120V Romex connections with wire nuts exposed. I will be wrapping the wire nuts with electrical tape to ensure they're protected, but don't like the look (hidden above the cabinets), and think this may not meet electrical code (don't know). The prior WAC power supply was enclosed in a grounded black metal box that was larger than the supply itself and enclosed all the connections within the box. But the WAC supply burnt out and was $84 to replace. Ridiculously expensive, and the box enclosure had no vent holes or heat sink fins to help reduce heat on the enclosed supply, which is what probably eventually burnt it out.I've only had this new supply working for about 3 days now, so can't speak to it's longevity, but the lights are solid, no flickering at all. So far, so good.

Used these for ledenet RGBW strips and these work well. I'm also using an H801 controller between these and the strips so they can be controlled by SmartThings/Alexa. I did have to trim the electrical connectors, since there I needed very little between the controller/transformer/electrical wires. I didn't receive any documentation, which would have been nice, in the package so I just did trial and error to figure out which electrical wire and controller wire would work.If these are the right price for your needs you will likely not have any quality problems from these, I've purchased three of these and each has worked with no problems.

I just finished wiring this power supply into service this evening. It was not complicated to wire (I wired it to a dimmer LEDWholesalers PWM Dimmer for LED Lighting with 12 button Wireless Remote 12 to 24 Volt 6 amp, 3317-DM. I cut off the polarized cord of a broken fan and used it for the cord and plug - worked great. The "in" and "out" are marked well. What troubles me, however, is that despite the item TITLE stating this power supply is UL listed, the UL logo or statement of UL compliance is NOWHERE to be found on the power supply unit itself. I have the power supply running two 16' LED Strip lights with 300 warm white LEDs each Warm White 5M Waterproof Epoxy 3528 300 SMD LED Strip Light, running at 25% brightness: no heat issue of any kind - completely cool (room temperature). The light is steady - no flickering, no surging...works like it should. If anything goes awry in the next 30 days, I will post an update. Would buy this item again as it feels well made.

I have no complaints with this power supply. It is instant on - no delays as seen with other power supplies. However, if it is turned on/off/on immediately, it behaves a little funky. Sometimes it doesn't turn on. I have to turn it off, wait a couple of seconds, and turn it back on.After driving a string of lights rated at 48 Watts for 6 hours, the power supply felt slightly warm. I was able to drive 70 watts (rated) for a short period of time (less than 1 hour) without any problems (just to see how adding another string of lights will look).

This power supply works great. It's small enough to be inconspicuous when mounted under a cabinet. There is no buzzing or humming noise even with an inline dimmer added. Mine is hardwired to a wall switch on the kitchen backsplash. It's running two 5 meter LED ribbon light strips for a total of 48 watts. At this load, I feel no heat generated on the external housing. It's compact, plain and simple, and works like it should.

Worked well, as expectedArrived on time

The 24v-60w rated power supply I received goes into overcurrent protection at roughly 50w and cycles off and on.

I was looking for a silent power supply. This isn't it.This makes slightly more noise than other power supplies that I tried.
