LED Power Supply

I have 2 60 watt power supplies for my LED lights but I have a exotic timer/control and need to consolidate them to one power supply. Where can I find a large power supply.
I searched the interweb & seem to only find CPU power supplies

why can't you run two off of one timer?

powergate llc
digikey
arrow
partsexpress
steves led
ebay

and my favorite electronics search engine, octoparts.

.....just to name a few.

Just saying "60W power supply" is not nearly sufficient information to suggest a replacement..
What voltage?
Are these constant voltage or constant current power supplies?
Got a part number for the current power supply?
Watt (or amp) rating of the timer?

Can you not plug a power strip into the timer and then plug both "power supplies" into the power strip?
