Has anyone purchased a generic replacement for the reefbrites? I've purchased one 24v 4a but the male connector won't fit the reefbrite female connector. I need help. I just don't want to spend 60$ on a power supply while they're 10-15$ generally on eBay.

Did the original power supply fail and do you still have it? If so, cut the connector off and splice it to the new.

If they have the power supply made for them you may not find one off the shelf with a matching connector.

Followed your recommendation! I found a 12v power supply that would fit the reefbrite connector, so I did cut the connector off and spliced it into the new power supply and it worked! Thank you :)
