Frequently Asked Questions
Can the APV-12-12 power a 12V LED strip for under-cabinet lighting?
Yes. The APV-12-12 outputs 12V at up to 1A, giving a maximum of 12W. It suits short runs of 12V LED strip in enclosed spaces such as under-cabinet or display-case lighting. Keep the total strip load at or below 12W.
How many meters of 12V LED strip can the APV-12-12 drive?
The APV-12-12 delivers 12W at 12V. Dividing 12W by your strip's rated power per meter gives the maximum length — for example, 12W ÷ 4.8 W/m equals about 2.5 m. Always check your strip's rated power per meter and derate to around 80% of the driver's capacity for reliable operation.
Is the APV-12-12 suitable for outdoor or damp-location use?
The APV-12-12 carries an IP42 rating, which protects against solid objects larger than 1 mm and dripping water falling at an angle up to 15°. It is not rated for direct outdoor exposure, rain, or splash environments. For outdoor or wet-location LED signage, a driver rated IP65 or higher is required.
How does the APV-12-12 differ from the APV-12-15 and APV-12-24 in the same wattage family?
All three share the same 12W power class and identical 77.0 × 40.0 × 29.0 mm housing. The APV-12-12 outputs 12V at 1A; the APV-12-15 outputs 15V at 0.8A; the APV-12-24 outputs 24V at 0.5A. Select based on the voltage your LED strip or luminaire requires.
What input voltage range does the APV-12-12 accept?
The APV-12-12 accepts 90–264VAC, covering standard mains voltages worldwide including 100V (Japan), 120V (North America), and 230–240V (Europe and Australia). No manual voltage switching is needed.
