Title: GE Color Effects Using 12V PSU
Post by: bravado67 on February 02, 2016, 08:07:07 PM

Can GECE lights will run off of 12v power? I want to run these from the F16v2

Not unless you use a dc converter to bring the 12v down to 5v. You will kill the string if you connect to 12v. Believe me I did it once on accident.

You could maybe push to around 6v (what the stock supply is) but not 12v

Thank you very much for that. I'll check out the dc converter idea.
