IMITOS 100W LED Power Supply 12V 8.3A GMR
Looking for a reliable, ultra-slim power solution for your low-voltage LED lighting setups in Malaysia? The IMITOS LED Power Supply 100W (Model: GMR 100W-12V) is a high-efficiency transformer designed to convert standard Malaysian household voltage (175-265V) into a stable 12V DC output. Delivering a strong 8.3A current, its super-compact profile (118 × 50 × 23mm) makes it the ultimate choice for hidden cove lighting, modern kitchen cabinet LEDs, and narrow ceiling plaster ceilings where space is at a premium.
Full Description:
With an input voltage range of 175-265V at 50/60Hz, this power supply is fully compatible with the standard Malaysian grid frequency, effortlessly handling minor voltage fluctuations without causing your lights to flicker. It steps down the electricity to a highly stable, precise 12V DC output.
Robust 100W Capacity with Stable 8.3A OutputEquipped to handle up to 100W of rated power, this LED driver pumps out a solid $8.3\text$ of current. This makes it incredibly versatile for both residential and commercial applications. Whether you are installing long runs of 12V flexible LED strips (such as 2835, 5050, or COB strips) in a living room cove, a retail display showcase, or a restaurant facade, the IMITOS GMR provides consistent brightness from the first inch of the strip to the very last.
Ultra-Slim, Space-Saving Form Factor
One of the biggest headaches for local contractors and electricians is trying to hide bulky, old-school metal rainproof transformers inside tight spaces. IMITOS solves this problem beautifully with the GMR series. Measuring just 118mm in length, 50mm in width, and a mere 23mm in thickness, this ultra-slim profile slips easily into narrow plaster ceiling cutouts, behind aluminum linear profiles, or underneath customized kitchen cabinetry. It disappears completely from sight, maintaining the sleek, minimalist aesthetics of your interior space.
Built for Longevity and Safety
Cheap, unbranded LED drivers often overheat, causing premature LED strip burnout or, worse, electrical hazards. The IMITOS 100W-12V LED driver is manufactured using high-grade components that promote excellent heat dissipation despite its compact enclosure. It provides a clean, smooth current stream that protects your delicate LED chips from degrading, effectively extending the lifespan of your light strips and reducing the need for costly replacements and ceiling repairs.
Specification:
-
Model: GMR 100W-12V
- Rate Power: 100W
- Input Voltage: 175-265V~50/60Hz
- Output Voltage: 8.3A/12V
- Size: 118*50*23mm
A:The best option is a dedicated constant voltage 12V LED driver like the IMITOS 100W GMR series. It safely converts household AC power into 12V DC, preventing flickers and ensuring your LEDs last their full rated lifespan.
Q2: How many meters of LED strip can a 100W 12V power supply run?
A: It depends on the wattage per meter of your strip. Following the 80% safety rule, a 100W driver can support up to 80W of load. If your 12V LED strip uses 10W per meter, this power supply can safely run up to 8 meters (8m × 10W = 80W).
Q3: Can I hide the IMITOS GMR 100W-12V LED power supply inside a plaster ceiling?
A: Yes. Thanks to its ultra-slim dimensions (118 × 50 × 23mm), the IMITOS GMR is intentionally designed to fit easily through standard downlight cutouts and narrow gaps in plaster ceilings.
Q4: What happens if I overload a 100W LED transformer?
A:Overloading a transformer (exceeding 100W of connected LEDs) will cause excessive heat buildup. This results in your lights dimming, flickering, flashing on and off, or the internal thermal safety switch shutting down the power supply completely.
Q5: What is the exact output current of the IMITOS GMR 100W-12V?
A: The IMITOS GMR 100W-12V delivers a stable maximum output current of 8.3A at 12V DC, making it highly reliable for high-density LED strips like COB or 5050 models.
Q6: Why are my 12V LED strip lights flickering in Malaysia?
A: Flickering is usually caused by an unstable input voltage, an overloaded transformer, or using a cheap driver. The IMITOS power supply handles a wide voltage input range (175-265V), smoothing out Malaysian grid fluctuations to stop flickering.
Q7: Is the IMITOS 100W LED driver waterproof?
A: The IMITOS GMR 100W-12V features a compact indoor casing meant for dry locations. It is perfect for indoor coves, cabinets, and wardrobe lighting but should not be exposed directly to rain or high moisture without an IP65+ enclosure.
Q8: What is the difference between a 12V and a 24V LED power supply?
A: Voltage must match your LED strip. A 12V strip requires a 12V power supply like the IMITOS GMR 100W-12V. Plugging a 12V strip into a 24V power supply will immediately burn out and destroy the LED strip.
Q9: Does the IMITOS 100W LED power supply save electricity?
A: Yes, the IMITOS GMR series uses high-efficiency switching technology to convert power with minimal energy lost as heat, lowering overall electricity consumption compared to older magnetic transformers.
Q10: Where can I buy an authentic IMITOS LED power supply in Malaysia?
A: Authentic IMITOS lighting components can be purchased through authorized local electrical wholesalers, lighting retail shops, or via trusted preferred sellers on Shopee and Lazada Malaysia.
