Reddit reviews MEAN WELL RS-75-12 AC to DC Power Supply, Single Output, 12V, 6 Amp, 72W, 1.5" - 323599

yeah, one of those strips are 24v strips, i'm surprised they lit up at all. 12v1A isn't enough current to do much.

​

this page says that you're looking at 72W for the full 5m strip, http://www.ledlightsworld.com/page.html?id=38

​

so that's a 12v, 6A power supply. I recommend trying to cut a small piece off one strip, and see if that works with your controllers

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01AAO4CUY/ref=oh_aui_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 these ones are kinda crap to be honest. they don't have red green and blue in each led, only a red led, then a blue, then a green. in aggregate with really amazing diffusion you'll be able to make purples and oranges, but it won't look near as good as the other two strips you listed which are actually rgb per chip.

​

so step one: cut off 5 leds (or wherever the cut line is on the strip) and see if that works with your power supply and controller. if it does then get a better power supply (hint: it won't look like a tiny little wall wart. at a minimum you'll need something that looks like this, however if you want some of the best you can get, mean well has you covered: https://www.amazon.com/MEAN-WELL-RS-75-12-Supply-Single/dp/B005T8XCLW/ref=sr_1_18?ie=UTF8&qid=1550809827&sr=8-18&keywords=12v+6a+dc+power+supply
