SUNVIE 300W Low Voltage Transformer Outdoor with Timer & Photocell Sensor

I had two areas of landscape lighting installed at different times and they were on two individual transformers. One transformer stopped working and I really wanted to "tidy" up the area, so as the replacement I purchased the Sunvie 300W transformer. Pros: 1-Now I have one transformer that runs both areas of lights. 2-It can be set to turn on/off at a specific time OR on by photo cell and off at a set time, or on at dusk and off at dawn. 3-Handles either 12V or 14V systems on each separate circuit. Mine is 12V, but some larger lights require 14V 4-You can purchase the replacement photo cell separately if you ever need to do so. This is unusual and very beneficial since you don't have to replace the entire unit if the photo cell stops working. 5-The "eye" is on the end of a length of cable. So you can mount the transformer inside the garage and drill a hole through to the outside and run the photo sensor out through the hole. This will keep the unit out of the weather, although it does say that it is waterproof. 5-It easily mounts on the wall via an included bracket. It is VERY heavy, so you can not mount it on sheetrock. 6-Simply connect the wires to the back of the unit, plug it in, program it and you're set to go. Nothing difficult about it. Cons: 1-The programming is not difficult, but you better keep the manual in a safe place for when you need to do it again. It is not very intuitive at all and you will certainly need the manual in the future! 5 month followup - unit is still working perfectly and reliably every single day.

One of the best things about this transformer is its ease of use. The timer and photocell sensor allow you to set your lighting to turn on and off automatically, based on the time of day or the amount of ambient light in the area. This means you can enjoy beautiful outdoor lighting without having to remember to turn it on and off manually every day. Another great feature of the SUNVIE 300W transformer is its versatility. It can support up to 300 watts of lighting, making it ideal for large outdoor spaces or for those who want to add multiple lights to their landscape. And with its compact size and easy installation, it's perfect for both professional landscapers and DIY enthusiasts. But perhaps the best thing about the SUNVIE 300W transformer is its durability and reliability. Made with high-quality materials and built to withstand the elements, this transformer is designed to last for years to come. Plus, with its 3-year warranty, you can have peace of mind knowing that you're investing in a product that is backed by the manufacturer. Overall, I highly recommend the SUNVIE 300W Low Voltage Transformer with Timer and Photocell Sensor for anyone who wants to enhance their outdoor lighting. It's easy to use, versatile, durable, and reliable - everything you need in a landscape lighting transformer.

This power supply was an easy set up, works very well, and produced his amazing results on our boat dock.

Worked great for about 10 months, then it started shutting off randomly. I contacted Sunvie and they honored the warranty and sent me a free replacement. The customer service was top-notch! Aside from the random glitch, the transformer seems pretty solid.

I purchased some landscape lights from Volt and I'm glad I did. They are not cheap but so well built and should last forever. I looked to Amazon to save some money on this project on a low voltage transformer. I was suprised to see a 300w unit at the Sunvie's price point. I could have gotten one with less wattage but 300v gives you a lot more options for future expansion. The Sunvie unit is very well built, easy to set up, and works like a charm! I did panic a little after I purchased it because it was only then that I realized I needed a multi-tap transfomer and the Sunvie was not advertised as such. I was set to return it upon receipt but decided to open the box and to my surprise, it has two 12v and 14v taps! Amazon please add this feature to the product description page. I've only had it installed for a few days and will post updates regarding the product's performance at some future date.

Purchased the product the beginning of 2023 and it functioned flawlessly. The unit has a digital display with many settings that allow you to program how and when you want your lights to turn on and off. Near the one-year time frame, the built-in circuit breaker started to trip intermittently shortly after it turned on. I verified that the load on the unit did not exceed manufacturer's limits and checked all of my wiring. Ultimately I made a claim against the manufacturer and they gladly replaced the unit. Dealing with customer service was easy and courteous and Sunvie stood behind their product. I would buy from them again and plan to purchase a unit for lights I have in my backyard.

This sat on a shelf for a couple years before installing. After installation it lasted 6 months. Looks like water got behind the buttons and now the lights are on 24/7. I emailed their customer support and have received nothing back from them. Seemed to work good when it did work. I'd like to hear back from them before having to buy a new one.

The transformer is a good quality product and works as advertised. I owned several and I am very happy with the performance.. the customer service is great and very responsive. Easy to programmed and great features and settings. I would recommend to buy.

It was the only one I could find to fit the specification of the 110 volt light system
