Welcome :)

I have tested the fan headers at 14Watts, we say 12Watts officialy, but the component has an rating of 18Watts, but may require a heatsink at that point.

So officially, 12Watts or 1Amp.

Hello there Henry, first post :D
same question reguarding the mx4,specifically the LK204-24-USB.
And its for led arrays not a fan, less than an amp.That will be ok won't it?
edit : 12watts right :D

Samething applies...the maximum current rating for each "high powered GPO" is 1 Amp (that's our recommendation!!). :D
