12 VAC - LED Strip Lights By Voltage

Voltage is one of the most, if not the most important specification to be aware of when selecting an LED strip light since it is a determining factor for so many different aspects of your project. The voltage you choose will affect the power supply you use, maximum run of your strip lights, and can play a part in the LED chip densities that are available to you. As well as if your strip lights are compatible with other existing lighting systems you may already have in place.

• 12 Volt AC Strip Lights - Landscape lighting systems most commonly run on a 12 Volt AC circuit meaning if you're looking to add strip lighting to your landscape lighting these are the strips that are most likely to be compatible with other lights in your system.
• 12 Volt DC Strip Lights - Existing or legacy installs of LED Strip Lights likely run on a 12 volt DC system for things like under-cabinet lighting. 12 volt DC power is also the current produced and used in most vehicles. If you're looking to add onto a legacy install or add strip lighting inside of your vehicle we recommend starting with these strips. It is always recommended though that you confirm your existing systems current type before purchasing and installing in order to minimize any kind of mismatches in products.
• 24 Volt DC Strip Lights - Longer runs than 12-volt strips, which is great for coves, paths, pools, and more.
• 36 Volt DC Strip Lights - Less voltage drop. Economical solution for commercial applications.
• 48 Volt DC Strip Lights - Lowest voltage drop. Best solution for commercial applications.
• 120 Volt AC Strip Lights - Eliminate the need for external drivers, capable of plugging directly into standard wall outlets.
