Power supply for 5050 rgb strips
« on: December 29, 2011, »
Would this be a good power supply for 5m 150 light rgb strips?
 And how many could I run off of one power supply?

Steve

  Below is a link to the power supply I am going to use. I currently have 2 in my display this year running Rainbow brain with Rainbow floods. I have had no problems with them at all. I have 2 in the shop I am testing Rays RGB strips on & will add to next years show. This power supply will run 4 of the RGB flex strips that Ray sells

So these are capable of having a DMX controller added to them and power injected (like the ~$7 3 channel DMX controller at holidaycoro....current relaunching their site)?

I posted a question to the seller, but if someone already has the information that would be great.
