Hi
New here and new to led strips. Can anyone give me some info about a strip that I bought but still in the post. It is a 5630 5metre strip rated at 60w. It comes with a 12v 5a power supply. Initially I just want to use 50cm of it. So would the supplied power supply be too much for a 50cm section as it would only require 5w (60w÷10 right?)? Do I need to use one that's around 0.5a (12vx0.5)? Does too much amps kill the leds or do they only draw what they need?
Thanks
