1. Determine your required wattage (Most LED strip lights display this as watts per foot)
This transformer can supply 24W of power, the 16.4ft strips of 300 Units 3528 LEDs is 20W. So, is OK.
However, YOU CAN NOT GO UP TO 16.4 FT STRIPS of 600 UNITS 3528 LEDs or 16.4 FT STRIPS of 300 UNITS 5050 LEDs unless you have some LEDs that require less power (fewer Watts).
The consequences of hooking too many LEDs would be overheating of the transformer and failure of the rectifier circuit!
2. Determine any special requirements you have (Should it be weatherproof? Should it be portable?)
3. Double check! Are your wattage numbers accurate. Are your input (120 AC) and output (12 DC) voltages accurate?
