Heavy, dims very smoothly with full range, silent, and worth the money
If you’re going to spend the time to install this, or pay someone to, then there’s no point in saving $20 or $40 on a cheaper power supply. Just get one of these Armacost ones or it will probably cost you more in the long run.These operate perfectly and they’re heavy, indicating that they might actually survive at their maximum rated output unlike manufacturers making dubious claims about what they can do with half as much copper.24V is much better than 12V because half the amps are required for the same wattage. That means less heat, less power loss per unit of strip/wire length, and longer runs of strip and wire become possible. So I’d use 24V whenever possible.

Worked as advertised
Worked as advertised. We used this for the led lighting we installed. Reasonable price.

Excellent product to install, works as described.
I used this with the accompanying ribbon and connectors, and let me tell you, it's simple and it functions beautifully. The light temperature is a perfect warm glow, the install is easy (although my application wasn't, due to poor planning on my part) and even with long lengths of wire inbetween strips, it doesn't dim in the least at the last strip. Solid product, would highly recommend.

A high-quality dimmable, "universal" 120V to 12V DC LED driver power supply
The Armacost Lighting 840600 is a high quality, dimmable power supply for 12V LED fixtures or systems.COMPATIBILITY: This power supply should be compatible with a wide range of 120V dimmers. The installation instructions state the following:"Armacost Dimming LED Drivers are compatible with both forward phase (leading edge, triac, incandescent) and reverse phase (electronic low-voltage, ELV, and trailing edge) AC dimmers ... They are also compatible with low-voltage PWM dimmers and RGB color controllers."Although virtually all dimmers will work with Armacost Dimmable LED Drivers, Armacost Lighting recommends dimmers that can be programmed or have an adjustment dial to set the low end dimming range."BUILT IN CONNECTORS: The built in connectors work well and quickly. They need to have some of the outer insulation to clamp onto, to keep the stress of any pull on the wire from going to the terminal connection itself. So don't strip too much of the inner or outer insulation.LOW MINIMUM POWER LOAD: The minimum power load is just 5 watts.VOLTAGE: Output is 12V DC.DIMENSIONS: It's somewhat large, at 7-1/16 inches long by 2-3/8 inches wide by 1-3/8 inches high.ENCLOSURES: If you want an enclosure, Armacost makes variations with enclosures for conduit connections.The only real negative is the cost, though of course having a high-performing, high quality power supply makes it a reasonable value. Lower-watt drivers are less expensive than this one.The manufacturer's website has lots more info, including specs and installation instruction.TWO WARNINGS: First, be sure to get a power supply rated with enough watts to cover your needs.Second, be careful to get a power supply with the right input voltage. Armacost makes a line of 12V dimmers and matching power supplies. This product is the universal power supply, to be used with a range of dimmers and 120V.

It actually works with a dimmer!!
Wow an LED driver / power supply that actually dims the LEDs!!!I thought there was something wrong with my LEDs or dimmer as I tried two different PLUSPOE dimmers that did not actually dim anything and also buzzed.This driver actually works, and works well. I am using the 12v/24watt one to drive 8x half moon 12v LED stair lights. I am also using a Leviton 6674 dimmer in the wall. There is no switching noise from this driver, the construction is solid and the dimming is smooth without flicker. Completely worth the higher price than non certified drivers.The only thing that was odd is that it did not come with a power cord. The lack of a power cord was not a big deal as I had one laying around, but I could see it bothering other people. I have a light switch controlling half of a receptacle in low voltage box, so I did need one.
