Basic AC/DC Adapter (12V 1A) | Small devices (sensors, remote controls) | 12V 1A output (IEC 60950-1), universal input 100-240V ▲, basic overload protection | Compact design (fits in tight spaces), low cost (ideal for budget projects) | Limited power (▲▲ below industry standard for LED strips), no advanced features |
Mid-Power Adapter (12V 2A) | LED strips, small electronics | 12V 2A ▲▲, overload protection up to 150% (IEC 60950-1), lightweight design | Sufficient for moderate loads (e.g., 24W LED strips), energy-efficient | Not suitable for high-power setups (e.g., 120W loads), lacks rugged build |
High-Power Adapter (12V 5A) | Commercial LED installations | 12V 5A ▲▲▲, industrial-grade overload protection (IEC 60950-1), durable housing | Supports 60W loads (e.g., 5m LED strips), reliable for continuous use | Bulky size (may require desk space), higher cost compared to lower tiers |
Heavy-Duty Adapter (12V 10A) | Industrial lighting, high-power systems | 12V 10A ▲▲▲▲, overload protection up to 200% (IEC 60950-1), rugged metal casing | Handles 120W loads (e.g., large LED grids), extreme durability | Heavier than standard adapters (1.2kg), specialized use cases only |
Dimmable LED Adapter (12V 2A) | Home decor, Christmas lighting | 12V 2A ▲, integrated touch dimmer (IEC 60598-1), color temperature adjustment | Adjustable brightness (0-100%), easy touch control (no tools required) | Only works with compatible LED strips (not all models), limited output (▲ below 5A tiers) |
Overload-Protected Adapter (12V 3A) | Safety-critical devices | 12V 3A ▲▲, overload protection up to 200% (IEC 60950-1), surge-resistant circuitry | Enhanced safety (prevents short-circuit damage), meets ISO 9001 standards | Higher cost due to advanced components, bulkier than basic models |
