So soon enough I’ll be moving into a small studio and was wondering. Would a long LED strip through my Studio be cheaper than the actual lights? For sure I’d know their gonna be more fun but looking for an alternative to save money on electricity.

When I took electronics, transformer meant a pair of coils of wire wrapped around some magnetic material. Their purpose is to step the voltage up or down. You still need components to convert from AC to DC. The easy way to do that is a rectifier with a capacitor that holds the charge.

Makes sense, I never looked up the definition and my only experience with them is with power bricks so I had the wrong idea
