Ordered a new power supply through ebay. (CHINA)
Voltage output is 11.3vdc. It is suppose to be 12vdc.
Will this cause a problem?

Do you trust your multi-meter? The switching LED supplies should have trimpots for adjustment. 11V will probably reduce your bed heating power by a notable amount.

Try adjusting the potentiometer beside the LED and check with your meter.

Maximum after adjusting the potentiometer: 11.48vdc.
Returning to seller.

Thanks for the replies.
