![]() Never advisable to overload a power supply, fire hazard. If the LED bar came with the 13.5 volt power supply, running it with a 24 volt supply could also cook it. Not enough info on your lights to provide more advice. Check data plate on lights for voltage rating. Get a larger 13.5 volt supply.

![]() There is no data panel in the LED bar (stock light I got with the tank kit, Fluval Evo 13.5) or the strips. For the LED bar the only info is in the transformer (above picture - 13.5v, 1500ma). For the strips, the box simply says 3 watts but also says I can connect 3 of them to a 12v power supply using a splitter.
The 2 LED strips are compatible with the dual ramp timer. The LED bar is not on the list. They only list Current USA products on the list. What power supply would you recommend? Last edited by Aquacrazed; 07-20-2017 at 07:36 PM. |

![]() The fluval evo 13.5 kit came with a 16w stock light. So your two 3W might not be the stock light.
The current usa ramp timer has list of compatible led bars. Depending on your unit it might not dim. As it's dependent on the driver used in the LED unit. Do you have pictures of your led bars, including their connecors? We can possibly identify which manufacturer it is from. |
