Features electronic controls and adjustable light sensor for dusk to dawn operation, dusk ON, timed OFF settings, or always ON programming. The light sensor can be adjusted to accomodate for nearby light sources such as porch lights or street lights. The sensor also features a 3 minute lock-out control to prevent the lights from cycling ON and OFF due to sudden changes such as lightning or car headlights. The new ergonomic air cooled design is lighter and easier to use than traditional power supplies. The power pack also features tool free cable connections that are secured by large thumb screws, ensuring solid contact with your low voltage cable. Malibu is the leader in landscape lighting, providing quality outdoor living products for over 40 years. </p> <p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"><font aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" color="#ff0080" size="4"><strong aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"></strong></font>&nbsp;</p> <p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"><font aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" color="#ff0080" size="4"><strong aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0">MAIN PHOTO IMAGE WILL CHANGE AS YOU SELECT FROM THE DROP-DOWN LIST AT THE TOP</strong></font></p> <p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0">&nbsp;</p> <p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"><table aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="10" width="84%"> <tbody aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"> <tr aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"> <td aria-level="0" class="basicTitleLG" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" valign="top"><strong aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0">Voltage Loss and low voltage lighting for landscape systems</strong></td> </tr> <tr aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"> <td aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" valign="top"><p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"><u aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0">How to use large transformers:</u></p> <p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0">First of all there are three important facts to consider before loading any transformer. </p> <ol aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"> <li aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0">Total Load (add wattage from all fixtures)</li> <li aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0">Distance (length of wire run)</li> <li aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0">Wire Gauge (thickness of copper wire)&nbsp;</li> </ol> <p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0">All three <strong aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0">must be considered</strong> when designing a low-voltage system system.</p> <p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0">Larger transformers need to be used in a manner that will allow all lighting fixtures on a specific run to evenly illuminate.

Low-voltage wiring is lightweight and can be laid on the ground or buried just below the surface.&nbsp;&nbsp; Another advantage of low-voltage equipment is that it can be relatively inexpensive. And, when you do the job yourself, the bottom line for low-voltage looks even better. Not only can the capital outlay for a standard high-voltage system be much greater, but you may need to hire a pro for part or all of the installation. </p> <p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0">You must size your low voltage transformer to match the combined wattage of the lights or lamps to which the transformer is to supply power plus approximately 25% more for the line.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> <p aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"><b aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0">Sizing your Transformer Example</b>:&nbsp; If you buy a system that comes with six fixtures and each fixture has a 12 watt lamp, then you have a minimum need of 72 watts&nbsp; (12 x 6 = 72).&nbsp;&nbsp; The line itself degrades the wattage as well so as a general rule of thumb you will need to increase it by 25% more.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Therefore you'll need at least a transformer that can handle about 90 watts.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; So a 100 watt transformer would be the minimum needed.&nbsp;&nbsp; If you plan to add additional fixtures in the future, you may want to increase the&nbsp; wattage of the transformer or purchase additional transformers as needed.&nbsp;&nbsp; Keep in mind that the voltage drop over long distances is more pronounced in a low-voltage system, therefore, using wire that's too light (skinny) can affect the output at the lamps and this may adjust the wattage need of your low voltage transformer. </p> </p> <p> <ul style="padding-left: 15px"> <li>SKU: Malibu Transformers</li> <li>Wattage of Transformer -: 100 - Watt;
