Transformer requirement for LED lights

[Aquacrazed]

LED strips: http://current-usa.com/aquarium-led-...en-led-strips/
They don't come with a power supply, they say they can ben connected to a 12 - 24v

The 13.5v power supply came with the Fluval LED bar (it's the light that comes with the Fluval Evo 13.5 kit)

i cant see where it says it can be connected to a 24v supply, only talks about a 12v one, and supply in the parts list is a 12v one. maybe the person you talked to got confused on what strip you had maybe?

I got a reply from Current USA:

The 24v transformer compatible with the Truelumen actinc strips can be found below:

Also just today I got a reply from Fluval:

We do not recommend you use a higher powered power supply as it will damage the unit and void your warranty.

I was looking on Amazon and noticed they have a used single ramp timer (https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00...?ie=UTF8&psc=1) for $20. I decided to buy it and then use my Fluval LED bar though it and then use the dual ramp timer for my Current USA LED strips (actinics).

Thanks for all the help guys.

that says its for the truelumen PRO not the normal truelumen light, but i guess it does not matter now that you ordered the other timer.
