Maximum Run Length of DC LED Strip Power Source

We are about to make another order and I want to double-check:

So, one power source that converts AC to DC will only fire up one (16.4 feet) length LED 365nm strip? In other words, I cannot connect two (16.4 foot) strips and run them off of one power source.

We can confirm that your summary is correct. As each foot of LED Strip Lights requires 5.5 watts, two full reels would require far more wattage than the single 120-watt power supply could offer, which would result in greatly diminished output as well as voltage drop. As such, we usually recommend using one dedicated power supply per 16.4-foot reel.
