36W Outdoor Waterproof Low Voltage Landscape LED Power Supply Converter/Rectifier, Input 12V AC to Output 12V DC (Does Not Work with RGB LED Strips)

Works as advertised. I converted my solar string light to garden low voltage and lights started dying. Added this rectifier and all lights came back on

These purport to convert low voltage AC to 12VDC but they let through quite a bit of AC riding on top of the DC. This results in a buzzing noise on many 12V DC LEDs. The buzzing was loud enough that you could hear it 15 feet away from the fixture. This is not suitable for my use so I'll be returning.

Worked easily out of the box for hooking up 12V DC LED lights to my 12 AC landscape system. A great solution. Leads are nicely sized and the package is well put together for this purpose. Install took 5 min. Yes, you can buy a few parts for less and custom rig this up, but this worked well for me so far.

I connected this to 12V lighting that required a 110 plug. It worked great connecting it directly to my landscaping lighting transformer. I plan to get another one when I re-design our front yard.

I am using the Peak railing from Home Depot and they have an RGB light kit and rail kit. I did not want all the colors of an RGB kit nor did I have direct access to 110v and really didn’t want my elderly mom having to use an app on her phone to configure it. So I went with simple 16.4 12v DC lights in a strip and used the Peak railing strip holders. They can be mounted on the outside or inside and I wanted them on the outside for more indirect lighting while on the deck. I had to make some changes due to the irregular shape of the deck, but it all turned out great. Couldn’t have done it without these EXCELLENT converters to change my landscape 12v AC to DC. Would have liked the leads to be a slightly larger gauge, but it all works well.

I am very impressed that I can add LED strip lights to my existing low voltage landscape lighting with this device so they turn on and off with the photo cell. Great product!

This is obviously not a full wave rectifier that converts AC voltage into DC. As with another product reviewer, I found that the output is some odd modified AC signal. If you have something you are powering that doesn’t care much about its DC power it might work. In my case, I had some devices that provide a PWM DC signal to create a flicker effect for dimmable LED lights. In my particular case, it did not work at all.

We had a deck built this summer and I wanted to tie some LED lighting for the stairs and benches into our existing low voltage landscape lighting. Only problem was that the deck lighting my contractor was installing required direct current and the transformer I was going to use only supplied alternating current. So I searched and found this fantastic solution! The part arrived on time and ready to be installed and it worked exactly as described. I am so glad I found this seller and this landscape lighting part as it simply works like a charm. The deck lights have been running for over 3 months now without issue using this converter.
