Ihave a few Piranha bars I'd like to use to light up my front door / garage door. What is the bet power source to use that is somewhat cost effective?

These come with LED outdoor lighting or can be bought seperate. They are weatherproof and include a photoeye.

A 12v adapter with variable voltage. Can be purchased at wal-mart in the electronics department.
Something like this for $10 (300mA) - http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=11684426 or this 500mA for $15 - http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=11684428 |
