Product Information

Full details

This Eagle 12V 2250mA Switched Mode Power Supply is designed for users needing a reliable power source for LED tape lights and other 12V DC devices. Its key benefit is stable, regulated 12V power delivery up to 27W, with a long lead and compact design for easy integration. A potential caveat is its fixed UK plug and specific DC output connector, requiring compatible devices.

FAQs

What is the maximum length of LED tape this power supply can handle?

The maximum length depends on the specific LED tape's power consumption per meter. This 27W (2250mA) supply can power most standard SMD 3528 and 5050 LED tapes up to a total load of 27W. For example, a 5050 LED tape consuming 14.4W/meter could be powered up to approximately 1.8 meters (27W / 14.4W/m).

What does 'Switched Mode' mean?

Switched Mode Power Supplies (SMPS) use electronic switching to convert AC mains voltage to DC voltage efficiently. They are typically smaller, lighter, and more energy-efficient than older linear power supplies.

Is the DC output connector interchangeable?

No, the 5.5mm (outer) x 2.1mm (inner) DC socket is permanently attached to the 3.4m lead. You will need a device with a matching input jack.

How can I tell if my LED tape is compatible?

Check your LED tape's specifications for its required voltage (must be 12V DC) and total power consumption (must not exceed 27W). Also, verify the input connector matches the 5.5mm x 2.1mm size and is center-positive.

Can I use this power supply outdoors?

This power supply is designed for indoor use only. It is not rated for weather resistance or outdoor environments.

What is the warranty period for this power supply?

Please refer to the retailer or manufacturer's documentation for specific warranty information, as this can vary.

Troubleshooting

LED indicator does not light up

Ensure the mains lead is securely plugged into the power supply and a functioning wall socket. Check the wall socket with another device.

Connected device does not power on

Verify that the DC output socket is fully inserted into the device. Check that the device's power requirement does not exceed 12V/2250mA. Ensure the device is compatible with a center-positive 5.5mm x 2.1mm connector.

Intermittent power or flickering lights

Ensure all connections are secure. Check if the total power draw of the connected device is within the 27W limit. A loose connection or overloaded output can cause flickering.

Power supply feels excessively hot

Ensure the unit is in a well-ventilated area and not covered or enclosed in a way that restricts airflow. If it remains excessively hot during normal operation, discontinue use and check the connected device's power draw.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Stable and regulated 12V DC output ideal for sensitive electronics.
  • Sufficient power (2250mA/27W) for most common LED tape light applications.
  • Compact, low-profile design facilitates discreet installation.
  • Long 3.4-meter output lead offers great flexibility.
  • Includes an LED indicator for quick status checks.

Cons

  • Fixed UK plug may not be suitable for international use without an adapter.
  • Specific DC output connector (5.5mm x 2.1mm, center positive) requires a matching device input.
  • Not suitable for devices requiring higher voltage or amperage than 12V/2250mA.
  • Output connector is not detachable, limiting some custom wiring scenarios.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the power supply is unplugged from the mains.
  2. Identify the DC output lead with the 5.5mm (outer) x 2.1mm (inner) DC socket.
  3. Connect this socket to your 12V device, ensuring the center is positive, which is standard for this connector type.
  4. Plug the UK mains lead into a suitable wall socket.
  5. The LED indicator on the power supply should illuminate, indicating it is powered on.

Compatibility:

  • This power supply is designed for devices requiring 12V DC input.
  • The maximum current draw of your device should not exceed 2250mA (2.25A or 27W).
  • It is compatible with most SMD 3528 and 5050 LED tape lights that use a compatible DC input socket.
  • Verify that your device's DC input jack matches the 5.5mm outer / 2.1mm inner connector specifications and is center positive.

Care:

  • Keep the power supply in a well-ventilated area to prevent overheating.
  • Avoid exposing the unit to moisture or extreme temperatures.
  • Clean the exterior with a dry or slightly damp cloth; do not use abrasive cleaners.
  • Regularly check the power cord and output lead for any signs of damage.
