So I Have a 12V DC supply, it came from a set of speakers. It is clearly labelled
INPUT: 230V ~ 50Hz
OUTPUT: 12V DC - 500ma 6VA
Simple? Not quite. When it is measured with a multimeter it is giving a reading of 16V Dc. Does that mean the label is wrong, or the circuitry is faulty?
P.S That is the only adapter I can use for a set of light strips. Also say if you need any pictures of it.
EDIT
The adapter does work on the light strips without blowing them, it was a question out of curiosity more than anything else.
Thanks.
