| Part #20214 | 24-Volt High Output UL 16.4-Feet Flexible LED Strip with 600xSMD2835 20214 |
|---|---|
| Part #3258-24V | 24 Volt 100 Watt UL Recognized Constant Voltage Power Supply |
The power supply would work intermittantly. Sent back to manfacturer for several weeks, they returned it, still failed intermittantly. Bought another from Amazon with a higher capacity. At Nueva Vida, the extension cord was faulty.
