All, I'm looking for a rectifier that is outdoor rated and can handle a 150w transformer outputting 12v AC and convert it to 12v DC. It also needs to be able to handle a total of ~8 amps from the IR illuminators that will be attached to it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
 
Another option is to use a computer power supply. Depending on the model some can supply 12 VDC at 18 amps. Some more some less. i.e. 120 VAC in with 12 VDC out.

Have been using an old Windows computer ATX PS to run all of my 15 watt white LED outdoor lighting that turns lights on/off for camera use based on outdoor LUX values with Hubitat.
