Ideal light up scotch in Richmond, Virginia

With lightstripe, you can choose between different models in Richmond:
Many native colors are available to give a colorful atmosphere: electroluminescent strips associated to a controller with remote control allow you to select a color or variable mode.
These ribbons have a thread and must be connected to a controller. The power supply is connected to the controller. Prefer white ribbons for electroluminescent white light as they will provide better power than a light red ribbon with the three colors on. It is possible to double a tape to obtain a sustained effect over a small length.
To give color to your room with the fixed color scotch: monochrome color ribbons (blue, red, green, purple, ...).
They are available from stock for most requested and to order for other less common hues like orange. This is the best solution if you know the desired color.
For the same power, electroluminescent light colored stripes slightly less than scotch emitting white color 190 cd/m².

Select Protection (sealing)
You can choose your ribbons in two finishes:
Without protection (IP33) for indoor use in a clean environment.
Protected (IP65), the tape is then covered with a layer of silicone: for outdoor, wet rooms or when the tape has to be cleaned (kitchen near a cooking station).

Choose Power
Be sure to use only special Electroluminescent regulated supply of 12V DC (12V DC) or 220VAC. Start by selecting based on connection type and use:
To the outside (or if condensation may occur)
For the interior:
If you want to plug it into a socket: Choose a ribbon-mount socket.
If you want to connect multiple tapes: choose a box mount series.
Make sure the power sum (number of power meters x meter) is less than the power of food.
Good to know: A 25-watt power supply connected to a tape 5 watts consumes only 5 watts.

Select length
The tape can overlap and you can create angles with seamless connections. If you need 2 meters of ribbon in one place and 3 meters to another in the same room and you can plug them into the same power supply, use a strip of 5 m, a single power supply, and add quick couplings .

Install adhesive EL tape

Implementation Tips
The light intensity depends on the installation you are going to make and the color temperature:
for indirect éclairege, do not place the tape too close to the surface that will release light for more efficiency.
pure white ribbon illuminate more than a warm white at equal power.
Prefer direct lighting. Whenever possible, do not install the tape directly on the ground. It is not dangerous, no breakage but deterioration of polyvinyl lamination will be increased.

Connect your flexible line
It is possible to connect several strips to a single supply (or output to a controller with inverter) in series:
Another connection example
In parallel :
Connection example ( metrics )
Observe the maximum lengths and widths (total areas) following in series to guarantee a long life and electroluminescent not having difference in brightness between the beginning and end of the tape:
electroluminescent ribbon "decoration": maximum 15 meters in series,
electroluminescent tape "watertight": maximum 15 meters in series,

Important: When connecting the inversion electroluminescent tape, it will work and will not be damaged being nonpolar. There is no risk of electric shock at the output.

Installation instructions of a flexible adhesive bandage
The ribbons are equipped with a powerful adhesive. They can be attached to all types of media. Before gluing ribbons, make a connection "blank" to ensure their proper functioning. Once pasted, they will be difficult to remove.
Handle strips carefully and avoid right angles.

Fold one electroluminescent strip
The ribbons can be cut Electroluminescent simply using scissors. It is possible to use fast connections to achieve angles or extensions. The ribbons can be cross-checked every 10 cm for LED tapes 30 / meter.

Details for White ligh-up Flexible (color or mono)
It is possible to order the tape if the power supply is not connected to a switch. For this you can:
add a switch before power on 220V (sold on Electroluminescent store Richmond)
add between the tape and food:
a switch (12 or 230 sold on Electroluminescent store Richmond)
use a special auto driver Electroluminescent ( sold on Richmond store).

Detail:
Do not connect a controller or driver, then connect output of the tape before connect to device.

When it exceeds the allowable power maxiale the case, it is possible to order ribbons by adding a second box. In this case, it is recommended to connect it to another power:
Do not connect a controller or vacuum driver, then connect the output of the tape before connect to device.
