Wiring shack lights??

One big huge one, or about a thousand little ones.

Sarcasm aside, what is the wattage or current draw rating in mA for your lights, and what voltage do they run at. Those parameters will be needed to answer the question.

As an after thought, why do you need an inverter to run LED lights? Are they not 12 VDC?

I have used LED lights on 12 volt, 120 volt, and 277 volt systems. In my case I have used more 277 volt one than any other.

The ones I have used vary from about 3 watts on the small 12 volt ones to close to 100 watts on the large 277 volt ones.

If you are looking at lights they should tell you what there amperage (a) or milliamperes (ma) draw is or some will give you a wattage (w).

If the give you the amps it's simple, if they give you the watts, divide the watts by the voltage of the system. Ie.. 60 watts divided by 120 volts is .5 amps, or 12 watts divided by 12 volts is 1 amp.

Going to run 12 volt lights and have a few 110 outlets.
