For this second setup I decided to use the same LED, but up my power supply to the three AA batteries wired together which output 4. If you are using 1 reel of 24v Ultra bright with e 2.

I'm going to show you how easy it can be to add some nice DIY accent lightning using simple LED con strips. Measure the distance from the center of the lamp to the ground and mark off the same height on the wall. Step Two: Measuring how many feet of LED strip you need You may have your LED strip light hook up lights to you in a reel 16 caballeros or by the foot, depending on the quantity ordered. Step 10: Enjoy the new light. Lifting Sling Straps are made from Nylon or Polyester. Purchase additional amp preferably with bass boost, preferably one that hook up lights AC power. If you put one resistance combo of resistors or too one in series with each diode, the effects of one 'popping' is not noticed by the others. Simply, untwist the wires and separate them so that you have easy access to them. If they appear dull and not real bright, then be sure to check that you have made Piece earth and POWER connections. There are a growing number of car accessory installers that provide these kinds of services, just ring around at a few places to find out who will do this installation for you.

With three different combinations of LEDs and battery power supplies and no puffs of plastic smoke yet things were looking good - aside from my little confusion between wiring resistors in series and in parallel. If you try and wire LEDs in parallel without a resistor for each LED, they will not share the current evenly and you will damage them.

PLEASE READ THROUGH THE NEXT FEW PARAGRAPHS FROM START-TO-FINISH VERY CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH THE INSTALLATION The instruction page below is broken-up into TWO PARTS. Each part focuses on a separate way of accessing the 12v power for your interior or exterior car lighting accessories. This set-up is the Number 1, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, and EASIEST method of all. However, we have many customers requesting how to install interior car lights when the ignition is turned on, so we decided to help you with this type of set-up anyway. Your most likely wondering, why is power from under the dash NOT a good idea? WARNING: Please keep in mind that the main issue we face with having neon or LED car lights on our vehicles these days is the fact that they are often frowned upon by the authorities. So to avoid any uninvited fines, and to have total control at your fingertips, its best to install neon or LED lights so as they can be activated through a separate , rather than having them come on when the headlights are turned on. But it is still highly advised to access your power supply from the car battery and NOT from under the dash. Ok, now that we have those two points cleared up, if you would like to install your light kits by accessing power from the car battery, please to go to those instructions now. If you would like to access power from a 12v wire under the dash that is active when the ignition is turned on, which we DO NOT recommend, then please to go to those instructions now. Do this by disconnecting the negative battery cable and laying it to one side so its not touching any metel parts. It's also wise to have your vehicles service manual handy for information about the specifics of the electrical system on your vehicle should you need it, but you should not. Ok, lets get started. In this installation we'll be showing you how to install interior car lights using ONE neon tube as an example. What you'll need to do first is find where you want to mount the tube and keep its location in mind while doing the wiring part of the installation, so you can allow for the correct lengths of the wires. For the interior, the best place to mount the tube is under the dash just above where the feet go, but high enough so as not to kick the tube or damage it. The picture below shows the neon tube mounted under the drivers side dash. How to Install Interior Car Lights via the car battery - Step 3 In this set-up, you'll be running both the main power wire with in-line fuse attached and earth wire from your light kits directly to the car battery. This Method is HIGHLY recommended for one or two car lighting accessories, and is the easiest way to do it, but after two or more light kits are installed this way, your car wiring system coming from the battery will start getting real messy. So to install many accessories via the car battery, you going to need some kind of fuse protected distribution control panel that all your lights will plug into, and that you have easy access to. Such a distribution control panel that you can plug all your lights into is now available, the Ok, moving on... This switch will be inserted into in-line with the main power wire that supplies the kit with 12Volt power. The fuse should be no more then 18 inches away from the positive terminal on the battery. You may need to solder the fuse to the power wire for your lights, or the fuse may have already come complete in the kit, however, if you need to solder any wires together, be sure to use heat shrink to cover your soldered connection put heat shrink on first BEFORE you solder wires together. This is the wall that separates the interior of the car from the engine compartment. If you do go drilling holes in the firewall to pass through wires, be sure to insert a rubber grommet to prevent the metal rubbing the wires bare. Important: For any vehicle project that involves drilling holes into the body, its a good thing to first check where you're going to drill the holes to be certain you won't pierce or damage any crucial parts such as brake lines, fuel lines and electrical lines, etc, that would be a real shame! You can do this in TWO WAYS... If by chance something stops working on your car while you are doing this installation, just check the fuses in your car, as you may have blown one. But this should not happen because you are accessing 12volts of power directly from the car battery on it's own circuit. Fuses only cost about 50cents each and you get them from car accessory stores, just show them the one you have blown, and they will have one there to replace it. How to Install Interior Car Lights via the car battery - Step 7 That's it, your all done - now all you have to do is put any plastic panels back into place that you may have torn off, and then head out to show your friends what a great look you've just created on your car. Then when your ready, have these instructions with you while your installing the LED or Neon interior car lights into your car. And if your still un-comfortable with this installation - and feel that you cannot do it, then your going to need to contact a professional who can. There are a growing number of car accessory installers that provide these kinds of services, just ring around at a few places to find out who will do this installation for you. Good luck and Enjoy! Do this by disconnecting the negative battery cable and laying it to one side of the car battery. It's also wise to have your vehicles service manual handy for information about the specifics of the electrical system on your vehicle should you need them. Ok, lets get started. So you want to install them permanently. For the interior, the best places to mount the tubes are under the dash on both sides just above where the feet go, but high enough so as not to kick the tubes or damage them. The pic below shows the neon tube mounted under the drivers side dash. If you want the tubes to light up automaticaly when the headlights are turned on, then you will now need to find a wire under the dash near the steering colum. This Method is ONLY RECOMMENDED for one or two car lighting accessories, but after two or more light kits are installed this way, your car wiring system from under the dash will start getting real messy and not to mention, hazardous. Such a distribution control panel that you can plug all your lights into is now available, the Ok, moving on... How to Install Interior Car Lights using 12v power from under dash - Step 4 You can tap into a 12V power wire from your existing car fuse box to run the lights. This is mainly what the instructions below are based on. Many people would advise against this method of tapping into existing vehicles wires, but if done properly, as explained above and below, you should not have any problems. But if you are unsure, please connect car lighting accessories DIRECTLY to the vehicles battery. This may not be as necessary for some makes and models of vehicles. Remember, with some later model cars and messing around with wires under the dash board could accidently activate the air bags. The picture below was taken on a GM 98 model Commadore - Notice how we had to remove the air duct from behind the dash to exposed all the wires at the back of the fuse box? But not all cars are like this. Normally, a fuse box is located under the dash on a car or truck. It could also be located under the hood, in the engine compartment. To use this tester is simple, it looks like a pen with an earth wire hanging out the top of it and a clamp attached to the end of the wire, and it has a globe inside the middle of the pen, or on its end, which lights up when you have found power somewhere. The tester you buy will look similar to this discription below. How to Install Interior Car Lights using 12v power from under dash - Step 6 The power wire you have now found, needs to be tested to see if it has 12volts of power running through it. Switch the control dial on the mutli-meter round to 12v and place the negative prong on an earth in the car and the positive prong onto the wire you think is 12v. If it is, the meter will let you know. That way, if for example you tapped into the cigarette lighter wire and its fuse blows when you operate the lights, you will know what fuse to replace, but the neons or led's should not draw too many amps to blow this fuse and you will also know that it is NOT a good location to run your lights from. How to Install Interior Car Lights using 12v power from under dash - Step 7 Now that you know what wire to tap into, turn the ignition off, dis-connect the battery and strip the plastic off from around the wire you chose using a razor blade in the spot where you want to tap into it. Then firmly wrap the main power wire with in-line fuse attached going to your tubes around this wire, the one you just removed the plastic from - and solder it in place for a good connection. This switch will be inserted into in-line with the main power wire that supplies the kit with 12Volt power, as shown below. Mount the switch in an easy to reach location on your dash if you wish. This will allow you to control the tubes independently from a direct power source. You can do this in the same way as described above for the earth wire on the circuit tester or anywhere where there is bare steel under the dash is always a good earth connection, even if you find a screw under the dash that is screwed into bare steel and it is holding another wire in place as an earth, you can use this too as an earth location. If they appear dull and not real bright, then be sure to check that you have made GOOD earth and POWER connections. If by chance something stops working on your car while you are doing this installation, just check the fuses in your car, as you may have blown one. Fuses only cost about 50cents each and you get them from car accessory stores, just show them the one you have blown, and they will have one there to replace it. Thats it, your all done - now all you have to do is put any plastic panels back into place that you may have torn away, pack your tools up, and then head off to show your friends what a great look you've just created on your car - Enjoy! Then when your ready, have these instructions with you while your installing the LED or Neon interior car lights into your car. And if your still un-comfortable with this installation - and feel that you can not do it, then your going to need to contact a professional who can. There are a growing number of car accessory installers that provide these kinds of services, just ring around at a few places to find out who will do this installation for you. Please keep in mind that the main issue we face with having neon or LED car lights on our vehicles these days is the fact that they are often frowned upon by the authorities. So to avoid any uninvited fines, and to have total control at your fingertips, its best to install neon or LED lights so as they can be activated through a separate , rather than having them come on when the headlights are turned on. To do this, you can run a power wire directly from the car battery to the operating switch, thus by-passing the vehicles headlight switch. Once again, Good luck and Enjoy!
