RGB LEDs Question
« on: October 26, 2011, »
I have been looking at adding RGB next year to my show. I have seen that the max. length you can run is 15' without adding additional power.
My question is how many of these 15' strips can be run off a single 20 Amp transformer? Here is a link to the transformer.

Hi Mike

If you take a look at the wiki equipment page there is a Chart that shows each type of lights sets and how much amp each set uses. Also there is a document that shows how to calculate the amps needed.

Thanks Rick

        The WIKI holds a lot of information that I did not realize was there.
