    UK Power for LED 18-20 metre stretch

    Hi, I’m hoping someone can enlighten me. We want to put LED lights around the picture rail in our lounge. There would be around 16-18 metres of lights, and I have purchased 2 x 10 metre of 12v 120 LEDs per metre. In hindsight, and having read up a bit more, I’d have been better to buy 24v...

    Hello everyone, I've recently had to replace (for a second time) a Corroded Strip Light Jointing Clip - see attached photos. Both times the LED strip had stopped working because of this. It's located in the interior, in a (theoretically) dry spot. I'm a little worried about this happening...

    Add LEDs to Vintage Radio?

    Hi all. I am trying to figure out how to add a few amber color LEDs to a 1953 Zenith K622 radio. One to light the tuner, one for the clock and one behind the center grill. I've gone down some rabbit holes. At this point, I would tap the original 110vpower and connect an 110v AC to 9v DC step...

    LED tape with effects

    Does anyone have a source for good quality LED tape that has programmed effects rather than just one colour at a time. “Addressable” or “pixel chasing” would be the description. Local gym wants 4 parallel lines along their ceiling in the exercise room above the bikes to give the illusion of...

    Reverse LED activation.

    I have reversing cameras as shown in photo with LEDs which do not function. I'm guessing the connector top left powers LEDs. One wire on harness is reverse gear activated. How should this be wired to activate LEDs on reverse selection? PS Cameras wrk fine.

    Can anyone recommend exterior led wall light, daylight and motion sensing with low/high light settings

    In the past I could find exterior wall lighta, mains powered, which would only come on at low intensity during hours of darkness and would switch to high intensity on detecting motion. The company I used no longer makes this model. Unbelieveably I am finding it near impossible to locate a like...
