[@brenden9758]

Finally, a good LED installation video. Thank You.

[@Flexfireleds]

Thanks for watching!

Awesome video. Perfectly explained all of my questions with LED Strip installs

What about if u got 5 shelves how do u connect all together ,

[@Flexfireleds]

Depending on how far away the shelves are, you can run wire between them to make parallel connections. We'd need to have more details to better assist you. Please send us an email at [e-mail] and our team will be happy to assist.

What is the best plan to build out an entire ceiling with the plastered in LED RGB plus W setup? Is there a Maximum length for the LED strips to keep best quality and also what is best rules for keeping lights cool and long durability ?

[@Flexfireleds]

Hello @VP411Designs. Our RGBW lights have a max run of 32 feet to keep the best quality of the light. To keep the lights cool and ensure a long lifespan, it is always ideal to make sure you are using aluminum channels to dissipate heat. Our RGB+W Lights come with a 15-year warranty by default, meaning that durability is not a concern, but paired with aluminum channels you can extend even more the lifespan of the lights. Every single project is a bit different so we like to learn more about the setup before we recommend something. You call us at [phone] or email us at [e-mail], and we can help you with the best plan for that ceiling!

[@VP411Designs]

[@VP411Designs]

Is that 32 feet to a receiver? And from receiver to hardwired to switch/wall etc. I wish there was a diagram illustration to show the flow of how the setup is with 20/6 wires recommend for the RGB/w tunable @@Flexfireleds

[@VP411Designs]

This is awesome thanks Brett for showing step by step. Only wish there was more information on what the steps are and best practices for hard wiring multiple LED strips to one receiver/controller? So for example use case kitchens have LED strips under the cabinets with multiple location changes or large spaces in between each strip with one unified control. How was this hardwired and setup to work in unison? Can you demo with steps like this video?

[@Flexfireleds]

Hey @VP411Designs The Leona controller is equipped with screw terminals capable of accommodating up to three 20 AWG wires on each terminal, facilitating multiple runs. You have the option to join all the wires together to form a single wire. Using pliers, you can attempt to reduce the wire thickness to fit it into the screw terminal. Alternatively, you can use a thicker wire, such as 16 AWG, extending from the Leona controller and branching out to connect all the different runs, creating a parallel connection. You can check this video as a reference: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYvFg2uHgsefa68si=tRHUqLlnP_lN4xjz

How do I install it without a sensor motion

[@Consciously_Humble]

Question if I wanted to use a little bit at first just until I found out some Ideas would I be able to reconnect it to the strip I already have up ?

[@Flexfireleds]

Absolutely, you have the option to trim the LED strip at the designated cut marks and reattach it using our solderless connectors. Alternatively, you can repurpose the remaining strip in a new project, in which you'll need a power source and a controller.

[@dillonle4034]

If I want to install different locations I just need to buy additional IR receiver and adapter right?

[@Flexfireleds]

Yes, for a new location, you will require a new power supply and a new controller. Despite the location being in a different part of the house, our Leona Smart Home system (www.flexfireleds.com/leona-smart-home-lighting-system/) enables you to control these locations together or independently.

[@surajpasuparthy]

hello the power supply is far from where the LED strips are. So how do i extend the length of the wire coming out of the LED strips?. which wire do i use and is there a connector to connect the 2 wires together.?

[@ashleywynn4923]

Call them. It depends on how far then you may also require a stronger transformer. They sell it all.

[@Flexfireleds]

Hi @surajpasuparthy ! You can use low-voltage wire to span the distance between the power source and the LEDs. The appropriate wire gauge can be determined based on the distance you need to cover from the power source to the lights and the load of the LEDs.

[@amitjadva]

So you don't need a LED Driver?

[@randymitchell2006]

Awesome video. Thank you for breaking this all down. I do have 1 question that no one seems to truly break down. I have a job and they want to use RGBCCT leds with a controller to integrate with Google. But they also want to have a manual standard 120v dimmer switch in the wall. Is this possible and if so what is required to make this work?

[@Flexfireleds]

The RGB CCT allows you to turn the lights on or off using a standard On/Off switch. However, for controlling and dimming the lights, you would need to use either the smart app or Google Home integration as these features are not available through the switch. The lights will remember the last setting they were on before being turned off.

@@Flexfireledsare all these LED strip connecting wires safe to run behind walls? I’m trying to wire COB led’s but I’m not sure if the wires are safe to run behind sheet rock. Any suggestions??

[@claudiodovalle9925]

If there are more shelves. Should i do a parallel installation comming out of the controller, or do a seriial installation?

[@Flexfireleds]

Good question! If the shelves are close to each other, you can hide the wires, and you do not exceed the maximum run length of the LED strip, doing a connection in series is beneficial. If the shelves are far away from each other and/or the total run exceeds the maximum run length of the strip, it is recommended you do a parallel connection.

[@roebucksadventure]

how would I connect the led strip lights where I want to go from the outlet to the ceiling with no leds and only have the led strip lights showing on at the top of the ceiling. So basically trying to figure out how to have an extention seciton with no LEDs from the outlet near the floor to the ceiling.

[@Flexfireleds]

You can use low-voltage wire to span the distance between the power source and the LEDs. The appropriate wire gauge can be determined based on the distance you need to cover from the power source to the lights and the load of the LEDs.

[@javierronin1]

Do I always need a controller? I purchased a BTF WS 2811 (24v) and if I connect it to the power source, only the first section of the strip lights up. It stops after the first place where it could be cut.

[@Flexfireleds]

It looks like you are using digital LED lights. If that is the case, then yes, you would need a controller for the lights.

[@sakran2975]

I do t think I got that colored cored.

[@Flexfireleds]

Hello @sakran2975. To provide you with a more accurate answer, could you tell us additional details about your setup?

[@richardmunsey268]

Very expensive, I was quite surprised. 30 feet of lights $980!

[@matthewbaxter6992]

I bought 65 square foot on Amazon for $37. Another $20 for hardware. It does all the same features.

@PRIMEballer_17 Nice score! These people are out of touch or looking to scam.
