Led strips

A virtual replica of an LED strip curcuit installed in my house. I had a problem with the driver not being under a high enough load, and created this draft to see how I could add load and still retain functionality.

Each led is a seperately zone. Zone 1 (red, 10ft, total of 1.8a) Zone 2 (Green, 10ft, 1.8a). 

I added the resistors as seperately entities because the wattage rating was low on the ones I was physically looking at.

What is the rating of the driver?

LEDs are not driven by wattage, they are driven by current.

Actually, I believe I have the wrong driver. The driver is rated for 20-96W. As you can see, the LEDs alone are 3.6 amps, which is about 80 watts.
