--- Quote from: madires on November 14, 2022, 12:41:47 pm ---Many outdoor LED lights come with those 24V wall warts (rated IP44). We got some too. Presumably a new wall wart costs as much as new lights. --- End quote --- Counterintuitively, it still might be worth it. If the power supplies which come with new lights are crappy and tend to fail long before the lights, it might make sense to buy a decent quality one separately, even if it costs more than a new set. |

Of course, the wall warts included are usually of the cheap variety. If you replace them with a good quality one you might need to change the connectors. The lights have a modified DIN speaker connector. |

High resolution images attached. Flipped image to match the above: Used Peekview to merge the back and front: Flipped view: I tried to sharpen it a bit further with Irfanview. https://imgur.com/a/Vw4Ggs6 |

A bit difficult to see, but some of the solder joints could be suspect (cracked?). No expert, but maybe you could test the green capacitor? |

Took some more pictures on the sides: Higher resolution images attached. I'll test the capacitors soon. |
