ALITOVE 5V 60A 300W Power Supply Transformer Adapter Converter AC110V/220V to DC 5V 60amp LED Driver for WS2812B WS2811 WS2801 APA102 LED Strip Pixel Light CCTV Camera Security System

I own a few of these Power supplies and I am happy to say they work great in all of the LED lighting projects Ive used them in. Sturdy built to last.

Powers ws2812b LED lights perfectly. The voltage output can be tuned down to about 4.7 volts on mine. At 4.7 volts the Raspberry Pi 3's 3.3 volt signals are interpreted correctly for a 5m (150 led) strip. Assuming my collection of ws2812b LED lights will grow, I opted for this over-sized power source.I was happy to confirm that the fan only comes on when needed. For my low power consumption in a cool environment this power source is 100% silent.It does not come with a power cord. I cut the end off a spare computer plug, and attached to the provided terminals.I plan to use this for powering LEDs and as a bench supply for breadboarding. Thinking ahead I purchased power terminal connectors that fit my existing breadboard adapter, and used it's matching connector on both ends of my LED strips.

These Alitove PSUs are good little units. A little larger than the frequently recommended brand, but you’ll save some bucks. If you are building a controller in an ammo can this will work just fine. If in a standard junction box, you may need to get a bigger box so you have room for all the gear.

Not sure about longevity yet, but it works well in the tests I made so far.Just wish the output calibration would allow to go a little higher than what it does now (max on mine is 5.6V). The reason for this is I had to inject 5V at distance over 6m. Since DC voltage drops over distance, I had to use thicker wiring to deliver close to 5V at the injection spot. If the power supply could allow to output slightly higher voltage, I would've been able to use thinner wires (wire size in this project makes a difference)

Using this power supply to replace a unit of the same model number but unbranded unit in a battery tester/charger. I'm attempting to charge battery cells to 3.45v @ 30a but coming up short with only 24 amps. Not sure of the cause and will have to crack it open to see where the output voltage is setting? The old supply runs at 6.12v but the specs on this unit claims 10% adjustment which should be 5.5v. I may dig into this further as it's not a life changing problem. It just means the difference in charging cells taking 200ah, now takes 8 hours to charge instead of 6. Quite a bit of time when you're talking about 100 cells.It's running fine otherwise and nice to have a little less fan noise. The problem I'm having isn't critical to me but it may be for someone else depending on the application.

Easy to use and works great. The only thing it could use is maybe a way to mount it. I placed down aluminum led channel and a tie down strap with staples to mount three of them to a board. The channel was so air could flow freely around the power supply. I have 6 strands and 2 controller being ran by them. Definitely recommend 18 gauge wire when running ws2812b continuous. I ran 22 on one side and 18 on the other. You can guess which side had voltage drop. Great product. I used a extension cord to power them by cutting off the female side.

This seems like a good beefy power supply that had handled the (relatively small) projects I've thrown at it. My biggest concern is that it likely could not pass any sort of electrical inspection on account of the screw connectors for the AC input. They sit immediately adjacent to the output screws (I believe it's a single bar of screws). Certifiable or not, I felt there is just too much risk of a single thread of copper jumping over to the +5v side and letting the smoke out.If this had a separate IEC input socket, I think this would be a perfect high current supply.

Worked great at first. I have had 3-4 of these fail between me and my father in law, almost always right after the warranty period. I only use them for Christmas, Halloween, and July 4th and they don’t last long. I’m not sure how there are so many great reviews. I’m going to have to try another brand.
