Really enjoy your videos... My question is can a led strip light (RGB OR SINGLE) be connected to a dimmer...? And how can it be connected..? Pls I need a video Thanks
@thebesthowtobyclem690821 сағат бұрын
unfortunately I do not see a video being created for this topic any time soon. to answer your question is Yes. several ways. one of the easy ways is to get a controller that can change your RGB or single lights and they always have a feature that you can dim the lights. another way is to get a magnetic power supply and put a dimmer to the that. in the pass several years a company has created a dimmer just for LED'S that does not required a magnetic PS. you can use a regular PS and then use the switch to dim the RGB and white lights. I hope this helps. But remember that you cannot just add any dimmer to LEDS because the LED it will start to flicker.

Good evening help please. . I have a 5 meter long 12V LED. (FCOB I RGB IC LED light strip, WS2811). it consumes 12 watt/m so requires 12*5 = 60. + 20% it gives 80 watt. I plan to buy an esp32 for the controller with wled. I know that I have to buy a 12v power adapter which provides 80 watts even 100 watts. questions: you never talked about amps in the video, should I take amps into consideration or not? Does the power adapter adapt according to what the LED requires? Can I buy a 150 watt power supply without problem? (I plan to add another LED in the future). help me please
@thebesthowtobyclem690812 күн бұрын
The amp is not an issue. Just be careful in adding to much watts, because you are going to add in the future you should be OK as long as you add the light to it.

You did a great job on the video, I would just like to mention that you should always make sure that the capacitor itself has been drained of its voltage before you attempt to remove it or the wiring They hold a significant amount of juice and can put you in a hospital pretty quick if it discharges to your bare hand they'll blow your fingernails off.

if you have 24V only if you go over 32 feet. if you have 12V only if you go over 16 feet unless you tap in the middle. what mean by that is if you have 12V and 32 feet of LED then you can tap in the middle at 16 feet then the power will go both ways. I hope this will make sense

Thank you for this video. I am hoping you can help me with a question. I’m looking to hardwire one of these PS, as a drop in replacement for a 12VAC PS, so I can convert to leds with dc power. The current PS is hardwired and wired to a wall on off switch on the incoming end (so two wires to each line,neutral and ground screw), and wired to a splitter to run 12v in two directions on the outgoing end. Are the power supplies like the ones you featured in this video suitable for that purpose? Thanks for any guidance you can provide

I'm not familiar with pixil tape. But most 12v and 24v LEDS you are able to put power on front end and the middle and on the end because the power can travel either way, except if it is a one directional LED or must get power on one end only. I hope this helps

I normally do not use 120V LED. But the formula is the same to figure out the W. But the difference is the you will need a PS from 230V down to 120V.

All I want to know is how the heck I can get a constant Voltage reading from my 12.6 V 3S2P Li-Ion battery after connecting it to a non-RGB Led strip [2m] light. I get voltage drop and my volt meter does not give me an accurate reading when the LED strip light is plugged in. All I want the Volt meter to do is give me a percentage of the battery capacity that is left in the battery. Nothing else. Battery: 50Ah LED (Red) 12V - 2m Strip

I have a 2019 377MBS and will be doing this mod. Thank you for your video, Clem. I'm wondering if the ductwork is needed - why not just use the existing chase and fan installation you did, but skip the round duct. That's how it was originally getting air to the bedroom, and now we have a good fan for additional flow to that room. Is the 4" duct needed? Or can we seal any gaps in the chase with aluminum tape and just use it as is?
@thebesthowtobyclem69084 ай бұрын
Great question, You can use aluminum tape but it would be difficult to seal it 100%. If you use the existing chase then the Wood is susceptible to moisture damage, warping, and decay over time. This can lead to leaks in the duct system, reducing efficiency and potentially causing damage. Wood can harbor mold and mildew if exposed to moisture, which can degrade indoor air quality and pose health risks to occupants. so the 4"Aluminum duct work does not promote mold growth and helps maintain better indoor air quality. I hope this helps. Subscribe to my channel if you have not done so and give the video a thumbs up because it will help my channel. Thank you. If you have any more questions please let me know.

Check to see if you can fully open the door to the retention magnet on the outside of the trailer. On my 2019 377MBS, the new lock touched the exterior wall before the magnet made contact. I printed a 1/2" standoff so the magnet could reach the door and hold it securely when open, yet keep the new lock handle from touching the wall.

Thank you for bringing that out. On my unit it's about 1/16 away from the wall. it does not leave any marks on the wall and the magnet has been working fine. but I have not notice that to be a problem with mine, but I had to go out after I read your message to check see how close it was. But your suggestions for those that do have an issue sounds like a great option. Thank you. I hope that you subscribe to the channel because I have some great videos coming.
