There is a wire coming out the transformer with an AC to DC convertor on it. However i think the transformer is rubbish as when we...

    Linking battery packs to change voltages? and how to charge?

    Thank you for your quick reply. I am using lead-acid batteries. I forgot to mention that the transformer has an ac to dc convertor attached on a wire then the led lights attach using a connector into this wire. When i measured the 29v output from the transformer i measured after the ac-dc...

    Linking battery packs to change voltages? and how to charge?

    Hi Everyone I have a query, We have some low voltage (24v) led light strings that run off a 24v transformer (down from 230/240v - UK). We wanted to run them off battery packs so we bought 2 x 12v (in series) batteries to make 24v. When we wired up the batteries the lights were duller...
