Anyone running their ramp timer pro at +24V? Will the LEDs that ship with it operate at +24V?

The back of the timer says max output 60W (30W per channel at 12V) or 120W (60W per channel at 24V). I'm wondering if the strip lights that come with it can operate at 24V or if they are 12V only. The unit arrived with a 12V transformer.

I sent a message to their tech support and they replied that the ramp timer pro can not operate at 24V and doing so will damage the timer and the lights. I am confused now. The markings on the back of the unit state that it can operate at +24V and their vendors say it can too.

That shows that it can operate at +24V.

Anyone?

I think I got a bad answer from tech support. They have another FAQ on their page

Still doesn't answer my original question though. I just want to know if the LED strip that came with the light can operate at 24V or is it 12V only?


Oh well, I work in tech support too (different company). Nobody is right 100% of the time.
