So I fitted some LED tape in my kitchen nearly a year ago. It's had little use. 12V white 5m I think.

It was split into 3 sections.
I also had 2 tiny PC fans. I think combined they drew about 350mA to help prevent damp.
Anyway, I divided it up into 2 circuits (of approx 1A each, maybe a little more)
I then had 2 old big brick broadband router powersupplies, rated at 1A each from memory. Rather than bin them, I used them to power said items. This has nothing to do with me being tight, or the shocking price of LED drivers you understand.
I used them to drive the 2 circuits.
over Xmas one power supply has failed. Both were hot.
Revisting LED drivers, I see some rated at 20W for £50

This is 1.6A to me. Less than 2A, not enough.
What am I missing? What on earth do people use these 20W drivers for ?
Could I use this to drive them ?

or what proper item should I use ? that is sensible money ?
