Overview

APV-8-24 is the 24V output model of this series: rated current 0.34A, rated power 8.16W, typical efficiency 81%.

APV-8 series is one 8W AC/DC constant voltage mode single output LED power supply. It accepts the full range input 90~264VAC and provides three models with different output voltage, 5V, 12V, 24V, respectively, that the small wattage LED applications employ the most frequently. Exploiting Class II design (without FG pin) and adopting the 94V-0 flame retardant plastic enclosure, APV-8 ideally fits the entry-level LED applications.

Test conditions and notes10

1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230VAC input, rated load and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
2. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1uf & 47uf parallel capacitor.
3. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
4. Derating may be needed under low input voltage. Please check the static characteristics for more details.
5. The power supply is considered as a component that will be operated in combination with final equipment. Since EMC performance will be affected by the complete installation, the final equipment manufacturers must re-qualify EMC Directive on the complete installation again. (as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf)
6. When applying DC voltage for input, please connect the brown input wire to the positive side whereas blue input wire to the negative side.
7. This product is not intended for LED lighting luminaire applications in the EU and China.(In the EU and China the LPF/NPF/XLG/XLC/XLN series are recommended.)
8. The ambient temperature derating of 3.5℃/1000m with fanless models and of 5℃/1000m with fan models for operating altitude higher than 2000m(6500ft).
9. Products sourced from the Americas regions may not have the ENEC/BIS logo. Please contact your MEAN WELL sales for more information.
10. For any application note and IP water proof function installation caution, please refer our user manual before using. https://www.meanwell.com/Upload/PDF/LED_EN.pdf

FAQ

What 24V LED lighting applications suit the APV-8-24?

The APV-8-24 outputs 24V at 0.34A for a maximum of 8.16W. Its very compact 60.0 × 30.0 × 23.5 mm form factor suits small 24V LED accent strips, individual 24V LED spotlights, and miniature 24V LED signage elements where total load is well under 8.16W.

How much 24V LED strip can the APV-8-24 power?

The APV-8-24 delivers 8.16W at 24V. At a strip rated 8 W/m, the maximum supported length is approximately 1 m. Divide 8.16W by your strip's rated power per meter to calculate your specific limit, and check your strip's rated power per meter before purchasing.

How does the APV-8-24 compare to the APV-8-12 and APV-8-5 in the same size class?

All three share the same 60.0 × 30.0 × 23.5 mm housing, 0.05 kg weight, and 90–264VAC input. The APV-8-5 provides 7W at 5V and 1.4A (74% efficiency). The APV-8-12 provides 8.04W at 12V and 0.67A (80%). The APV-8-24 provides 8.16W at 24V and 0.34A (81%). Output voltage is the main differentiator — select based on what your LED load requires.

Is the APV-8-24 rated for outdoor or wet locations?

No. The APV-8-24 carries an IP42 rating, covering protection against solid particles larger than 1 mm and dripping water only. It is not appropriate for outdoor, rain-exposed, or splash environments. For outdoor 24V LED installations, choose a driver with a higher, suitable IP rating.

Great for LED strip runs
By Tane W.|2026-06-20✓ Verified Buyer
Model: APV-35-24Quantity: 6
Used the APV-35-24 to drive 5m of warm-white strip — dead quiet, no flicker on dimming.
Compact and cool
