hello everyone

I don’t know much about electricity but I’m looking to do a little diy project.

I bought some lights now the lights say max 0.75 watts and I’m looking to add a controller to lights and that’s says it outputs 144wats will this cause a fire or some sort of unsafe project


Thank you for reading and helping

And I’m looking to cut the cable that connects to the power supply/controller (the box with two wires coming off it) so I would have the little box where the lights connect too and to replace it with this

But I’m not sure if it will work/be safe

Because the little hub thing wear all the lights connect says max 0.75 watts and the controller I want to says it outputs 144watts

Thanks for reading
