Hello,

I'm interested in doing a diy project for my led's above my aquarium.
In the manual is written that i can use up to 3A per channel, So do i need a powersupply with 12Amps?? or can i use the original DC Adapter from ghl.
The adapter from GHL deliveres 1,5 A.

Has anyone had any experians with this.

(excuse my English, I'm from the Netherlands and neither my German or English grammatics are good.)

thnx greetz Marco

You should read the complete sentence: Max. current per channel or in sum

You need an adapter that suits your LEDs and you have to respect the the limits of LEDControl4active which are 3A in sum and a max. voltage of 18V.
It also may a good idea to have one who has a connector suitable for the 2.1/5.5mm socket.
