I have a little over 13 meters of 24v 60LED/meter RGB strip lights that I am powering with a SUPERNIGHT 24V 15A 360W DC Regulated Switching Power Supply. The problem is that this power supply is very noisy when it operates especially at full brightness. Would someone please recommend a silent or at least quieter solution. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Electronic (RFI) or mechanical (fan) noise? You'll likely get both from a cheap ass Chinese power supply like that. I'm about to install over 500 feet of SMD5050 LED strips in a restaurant and am going to use a couple analog supplies. There are already a couple of big bucking transformers there from the present installation of incandescent strip lights so I'll only have to add bridge rectifiers and filters.
Yes, I realized that after I posted and decided to go with a different transformer. I ordered it but don't know if it will work. I will let you know. Here is what I bought.
HLG-240H-24B from Mean Well, 240 Watt, Single Output
Well, I hooked up the HLG-240H-24B and it worked great. NO NOISE!!! This particular model "B" has a set of two wires that are used for dim control. I just did not use them since I have my own RGB controller that includes dimming feature.
