Hi everyone
We have some 10mm PCB RGBCCT strips (6 terminals/wires) being installed in the kitchen under the worktops
However electrician is finding soldering them too tricky and I can't seem to find any 10mm 6 pin connectors anywhere. We have some 12mm which we used for a different size strip...
If anyone is interested, here's some pics:
The power supply remained unchanged (2.5MM fed), but is in an enclosure and i added a 3A fuse to the input cabling. The enclosure also dampened the sound to point it isn't discernible outside the loft space
The 2.5mm cabling is inside the wall (its...
(Or alternatively perhaps a small vent diffuser to allow air into the underfloor space). I got a reply from the manufacturer regarding its placement as well as below:
"Dust does not normally pose an issue with the transformer, I have had many customers who have fitted the transformers in...
Does anyone have any recommendations for an alternate power supply (perhaps IP65 then?) for 240W 12V 20A
There are existing downlights (halogens with transformers for each) x6 so the LED tape is just for a bit of ambience. They do not need to be particularly high quality. The coving will be 100...
I have sent their support team an email to enquire about an appropriate enclosure and to get the manual/leaflet if they have one. If they don't reply I will call when I off work.
Are there any other aspects you think need further thought?
Many thanks for the input regardless
Thanks for the advice - might I ask where you would consider a more appropriate place (hidden from view) There really isn't anywhere else for it to reasonably go without it being visible. As for enclosures, I'm sure there are a variety on the market if you have any advice on that
Whilst I appreciate that is always good advice, perhaps if you could imagine I would like try this myself and the whole point of asking is to learn and not do silly things, this would be a more helpful conversation
Dear all - I am looking to install some LED strip lighting (it will be wall-mounted near the ceiling, behind some uplight coving). The plan is to pull the power from the mains under the floor and chase the cabling into the wall (brick wall, no studs), to then be cemented/plastered/polyfillered)...
I wouldn't worry, the old man has a whole case of them from the doors for that reason...they will stay in the box for rest of time no doubt but hey ho. ;D
Will post and update once he has had a look at it
