There must be an inscription which comes with the product you have, which is called specifications. Look around for a sticker or something.
If still nothing is found, test the systems by using, say a cellphone charger output and feed it to your system. See if the LEDs turns on. That's for starters.

It might be having a halogen bulb illuminating the fibre part, can be around 10W at least for a 5ft tree. So I'd guess it can be using a PS unit of at least 1Amp rated at 12V(as you said).
Try it and reply back, but no guarantee as it's difficult to tell correctly on the vague info you provided
