[QUOTE="Geoff1946, post: 498577, member: 28452"] The led controller may be both 12/24 compatible but the strip won't. Match your supply to your strip. You only need to earth any exposed metal which isn't double insulated. Can't speak for the old fluorescent but you new gear shouldn't have any. And yes its good practice to have a little power capacity in hand. The transformer will run cooler and so live longer. I don't think you need a dimmable one as pictured though it probably doesn't matter except costing a little more. [/QUOTE]
