My christmas LED rope lights outside have a problem....?
they are about 15 Meters long and they are all working but in the middle about 1/2 a meter isnt working i have tried tapping it and there is a little blue spark from one of the LED's, what can i do to fix this? Help
.The section with the sparks is defective. If your rope is a combination of sections, remove the damaged section and obtain a new section of the same length. With the power off, the sections have twist-locks at each end. Simply unscrew each end and pull the sections apart.One end will have two pins on it. The other end will have two holes on it. Be sure to line up your new section so it matches with the Original ends. If your rope is a single section, either replace the whole thing, or try to place the defective section where it won't be noticed. Good luck.
I need to buy LED rope lights for a car, should I get the 12 volt or run an inverter and go with AC?
I'm buying this for my father's toyota pick-up for Christmas. I'd like to keep costs below $200. I also have a concern about the life of the truck's battery in both cases. He would use these lights while sitting at a car show with the engine turned off. Any ideas would be helpful and appreciated.
Thank you all.
Get the 12V LED. An inverter uses a lot of battery power, even if nothing is plugged in to it.
As for the 12V LED lights, you could cover that whole truck with the rope LEDs and leave them on for hours, and it will still start! LED lights use ~ 10-20mA (per light on high lumen models). An average car battery can handle the headlights being left on for over an hour...
Lets say each headlight pulls 55W (equal to 4.6A) and then you need to include all the other marker lamps (tail,side, ect) that will pull between 3-9W.
55W + 55W + 9W + 9W + 5W + 5W = 138W lets round up to 150W so we include dash lights and anything else we forgot. 150W is equal to 12.5A at 12V.
Normal 5mil LED pulls ~10mA. Say you have 1000 LEDs. 1000 * .010 = 10A
Hope this helps. No need to worry about the battery
