- Drill with a drill;

- Knife.

BTW, you can select the LED faucet lights and the tools mentioned above at Banggood for high quality and reasonable prices.

Cut by a turbine in the middle of the plastic cap (on the outside of his hand) hole using a special circular nozzle. Drill the side of the plastic sleeve hole is designed to be installed in his switch. Cut the tip of the knife 20, a bottom of the syringe. Place a bottom housing 20 in a plastic syringe cap. The one end of the syringe, which protrudes from under the hood, and connect the nipple (Shove thin section of the pin in the syringe).

From 5-bottoms make the syringe container for batteries. Solder to the design of the container with battery. Then attach using a soldering iron to the hood blue and red LEDs. Pass the wire through the hole on the plastic sleeve. On the plastic cap on top put a plastic sleeve. By withdrawing from the coupling wire, attach a small toggle switch. Check the operation of the mechanism established by setting the switch to a different position. Screw design instead of a shower or faucet. When the hot water is turned on, it should be highlighted in red, and when the cold, it is blue.

To make a 5-bottoms syringe container for batteries, need copper foil, wire, glue gun with, the battery itself and the syringe. To begin, cut with a knife tip of the syringe and pull the wires through the body of the syringe. At the bottom of the copper foil preform place. Cover the glue nozzle of the syringe to the wire, and the second route the transactions through the piston, connecting it with the copper contacts. Place the syringe button-type battery and a container ready.

LED Spotlights Outdoor and Indoors

Today, LED spotlights are the ideal lighting solution for modern cities, streets, buildings, bridges, billboards, parking lots of storage space and adjacent areas. These light sources were an indispensable tool to create a unique image of the city, accents, show and highlight the beauty of the historic buildings, as well as the scale of buildings. LED spotlights are the modern replacement of legacy projectors with halogen and metal halide lamps. LED floodlights provide bright and directional light, with maximum energy saving, long service life, high degree of protection against mechanical damage and environmental influences and does not require additional maintenance costs.

Consider the unit LED spotlights on the example of a model from one of the well-known manufacturers of 50 watts. Modern LED spotlights (e.g. 10W LED Chip Lamp) from top manufacturers available in modern and functional packaging with bright memorable design, which distinguishes them from noname products. Spotlight housing and is usually made of a cast aluminum alloy having a high thermal conductivity, which allows heat removal from the LED module. The reflector is typically made of metal. With coated aluminum deposition in a vacuum creates an even light output with given scattering angle, providing high consumer properties of the spotlight. Silicone seals and grooves on the spotlight housing provide high protection of electronic components against moisture spotlight.

These models are designed for outdoor use. Cheap as spotlights unknown manufacturers have moisture protection at this level. Moreover, the poor quality of the assembly can be clearly seen with the naked eye. Housing of high-quality LED spotlights usually has a special anti-corrosion powder coating that provides protection against mechanical damage and environmental impact (e.g. water does not linger on the body as opposed to the usual smooth coat). The modern LED spotlights used inside the housing are located LED module made on the chip on board technology (COB). The diffuser is made of clear tempered glass.

LED spotlights do not require additional services, which allow to minimizing the costs of their operation. Swivel bracket makes it easy to install the spotlight, as well as direct the luminous flux in the desired direction. BTW, you can select the in ground flood light at Banggood. Besides, you can easily get other LED lighting accessories (e.g. 5V light bulb) there with high quality and reasonable prices.

How to Connect LED Strip

Backlight LEDs actively spreading in modern design. LED strips are used in various fields. For example, LEDs are used in the interior spaces of buildings. The shop windows are also illuminated lights from LEDs in cars are also used LED strip. Low cost, practicality and easy installation LEDs have provided widespread.

You will need

- IP65 LED Light Strip

- Power Supply

- Scissors

- Soldering iron

In the beginning, you need to decide on the venue installation LED strip and calculate the length of its future. One must remember that the LED strip can be cut through multiple intervals (for example, SMD 3528 Q60 tape can be cut every 5 cm), so you need to take this into account in the calculation.

The next step is the selection of the power supply. The power supply must strictly conform to the stated capacity of the tape. In the selection of the block is best to consult with a professional advisor, not to be mistaken.

After all, the components purchased to prepare the surface for the tape mounting. Mounting location carefully degreased. It is better if the surface is solid (in order to avoid damage to the tape PCB). If the tape be mounted on metal or other conductive surfaces, the tape must be isolated. If the tape does not need to cut, it is immediately ready for installation. LED strips have a back side of the adhesive layer. With this adhesive layer and made assembling strip. The protective coating is removed and the tape pressed against the surface. BTW, you can select the LED strips at Banggood. Besides, you can easily get other LED light (e.g. stainlesss teel wall mounted solar light) there with high quality and reasonable prices.

The final step is to connect the tape to the power supply and controller, which is produced by wires from the tape. Each wire has its own designation on the conductive path, R, G, B, and V +, and connected respectively polarity to 4 inputs on the controller R, G, B, V + .Blok power to 220V connect the two wires to terminals L + and N-. Next, connect the "+" on the power supply to the "+" on the controller, and "-" to "-", respectively. Voltage polarity must not be confused - this can lead to equipment failure and damage to the tape.

Installation of LED Ribbon on the Car

Until a few decades ago, LEDs were only used as indicator lights. But today, thanks to its characteristics, versatility and beautiful glow, LED-technology every year are gaining popularity in the field of lighting. Consumers are increasingly moving to the use of LED lamps and luminaires, as well as LED strips, which have been applied in advertising and decorative lighting, and actively used by designers all over the world.

In addition to the design goals of interior room lighting, LED strip steel (e.g. the 12V LED strip lights) is widely used in the automotive industry, to enhance the standard lighting cars. Some manufacturers of modern cars already in the basic equipment of the models set the LED backlighting in size and dashboard. However, for many motorists, who want to give your vehicle a unique look and add functionality to the standard interior lighting, boot or body, this is not enough. So they resorted to self-tuning of the car, using the LED strip, by which additional lighting can be set in the most unusual places, even where it did not exist before.

For successful device further highlight the car must follow these steps:

1. Determine the place of installation of LEDs;

2. Cut the tape only in the right place;

3. Qualitatively fulfill its connection to the onboard network.

There are two ways to connect the LED strip: no interference in the electric car circuit and with a hole in it. When laying the tape should be selected segments of the desired value, which are cut to the ground and fold sequentially connected together by soldering the wires through the connectors. It is necessary to strictly observe the polarity, but in the case of improper connection LEDs will not go down. If the light does not work, you will need to check the correctness of the connection. Places soldering, to prevent ingress of water, treated with silicone. Connect LED ribbon through the controller (in the passenger car - 12 V) to the power supply using the adapter into the vehicle's cigarette lighter. To this end, a standard telephone charge soldered wires from the LED strip, with one wire is fixed to a fuse, and the second - bypassing the regulator to rule with an iron lug. And you can use the RGB LED connector.

To implement the second method of connecting the tape with a hole in the car's electrical circuit, only need two additional wires. In order not to reverse the polarity, it is best to use the red and black wires. Red is soldered to the "plus" ribbons, black - a "minus". And then solder joints should be treated with sealant. Black wire is held under the skin to the negative terminal of the battery and the red through the switch - to the positive. The switch is installed inside the vehicle so that it to be easy to get.

How Do I Install the LED Strip for Headlights?

Once entered into force a law on mandatory inclusion of illumination lights in any weather, many car owners have begun to look for ways to at all costs not to include them. Because we all know, in this case, all lights will break down faster. Most nimble found out - LED strip for headlights with their own hands, the issue we have decided to devote special attention and tell the features of this connection, and why such a light is allowed at the legislative level.

Many believe that this extra light and creates only "Pont" We fundamentally disagree with this opinion. After all, we consider that the installation of LED strip lights battery powered - it is a useful factor that makes the car better and allows you to not include running lights of the city.

Modern brands set a default backlight, however, it is found only in expensive models. Everyone will be able to set it up it on your car, too much difficulty it is not enough to follow certain rules in order not to have problems with the traffic police authorities.

Any feature LED strip with battery for the car is that the conventional tape shines at an angle of 120 degrees - such light unacceptable. It is necessary to create a viewing angle of 30 degrees, and then it will perform the DRL function, creating visibility to at least 300 meters. The optimal degree of luminescence is created by reflectors and lenses. I would like to reassure the right, if you can buy LED strip for cars, then these lenses and reflectors are installed by default.

How to Choose a Power Supply for LED Strip

Many people know that connect LED strips directly into the outlet should not be - it will burn immediately. To do this, use a power supply for LED strip, and choose how to calculate the power and ribbon, we'll tell you in this article.

In total there are basically two: the power supply for LED 12W tape and 24 watts. We recommend using 12W, because they cost much less at the same time carry out such functionality. Power 12W is considered optimal, they can be easily found at any market. To install at home is better not find the device. If you connect a large tape, then you will come in handy at 24 watts, as a rule, to illuminate a large area of a stretch ceiling it will fit just right. If you want to do without a block, then think about the LED ribbon RGB on line 220. BTW, you can select the power supply for LED Strip at Banggood. Besides, you can easily get other lighting and lighting accessories (e.g. LED strip adapter) there with high quality and reasonable prices.

Let's try to make the calculation on the basis of one meter LED strip SMD 5050. The table shows the value of 7.2 watts. Next, we determine the length of our tape, take, for example, the tape 10 meters. Perform simple multiplication: 10 meters multiply by 7 watts. It turns out 72 watts - a power which should have a block.  They can be found in any store, they differ only in the installation process. For example, one can only be installed in a dry room, and the other can be installed even in the bathroom. They are considered the most popular although many people do not even use them to full functionality. Maximum power of this unit is 75 watts. This capacity is enough for an average LED strip. This unit can be used for lighting LED ceiling ribbon.

Outdoor 12V 20A power supply for LED strip has a very large size, so it cannot be set as the illumination of walls, ceilings, because it cannot hide anywhere. It is used to illuminate large areas and only in the room, for example, it can be hidden in ordinary wardrobe. Keep from moisture and mechanical impact, but it has a low cost. 

How to Connect the Motion Sensor Lighting

Each person more than once noticed motion sensors, which include light. Such an arrangement can be called great, it is suitable for installation: at the entrance, on the street, near a private house, on the fence, etc. In this article we will answer the burning question, how to connect a solar motion sensor light to illuminate on our own hands, just want to point out the complex in such a setting there is nothing one can do it.

Any motion sensor for switching of lighting has a fairly simple principle of work. There are three species that respond to a particular signal.

1. Responsive to sound.
2. Vibrational. In this case, it closes the circuit when they see near objects.
3. Infrared responsive to heat.

We now consider the more important question, and figure out how to connect the motion detector. Now there are several combinations, each of them has its own characteristics.

The first circuit connecting the motion sensor is the simplest, but at the same time it cannot be considered optimal for installation in home or apartment. The light will turn on only when the sensor detects motion. The second scheme is considered to be optimal. It is possible to switch the circuit breaker to normal. Everything can be turned on or off manually if desired. The third circuit is necessary in the case where the nominal transmitter power ranges from 500 to 1000 watts. According to this scheme are connected solar powered motion lights, it is desirable to add to the circuit magnetic contactor. Last connection diagram of the motion sensor is used when you need to install it in large rooms or at their summer cottage. It can also be applied to the winding corridor, the scheme is considered quite complicated. It is usually used only by professionals. BTW, you can select the solar-powered motion sensor security light at Banggood. Besides, you can easily get other lighting and lighting accessories (e.g. warm white LED flood light) there with high quality and reasonable prices.

How to Connect the LED Tape

Special difficulties in the process of mounting any tape there arise problems when something goes wrong. Let us consider some basic situations, why it is necessary to connect the tape.

Initially, it would be desirable to recall the LED strip at 220 volts. It is peculiar, if the burn is at least one LED, you need to replace a meter.

When installing any lighting in the house you may find that tape is too small or has been cut too large plot, there is, when it is simply damaged. Adding a new section completely solve this situation. Learn how to install the LED strip on the ceiling. Such a method could be called optimal, it requires no special skills. It is enough to buy a special 2 pin LED connector. It can be found in any market, the special rules for choosing not.

The process of connecting LED strip does not take a lot of time, and you do not need any additional tools. The two have enough tape, scissors, and a connector for the LED strip.

• First of all you need to determine how many contacts have LED ribbon. As a rule, three of them, if the tape RGBW they can be 4. Accordingly it is necessary to select the LED connector that has 4 sockets.
• Prepare tape for this we clean it from the coating. Doing this is neat, contacts can damage easily.
• Take one strip and inserted into the socket connector, then fasten them.
• We perform the same actions with a different tape.
• Before you close the cover, make sure that polarity. All names are on tape and connectors.
• Close the lid.

Here we are with you and answer the question, how to connect LED strip without soldering process is quite simple. But it requires care.

Where Portable Rechargeable Searchlight Can Be Useful

Portable floodlight can be used in places where there is no provision for connection to the mains. The battery is able to hold as much as it will allow the lamp used. Therefore, the most durable choices are models that use LEDs.

Portable rechargeable floodlight can be mounted to a tripod, standing on any surface, installed in limbo. They often have a low weight, thanks to which a source is convenient to take with you. These LED chip lights can be used in construction. Protection of the source begins with IP65, where the first digit indicates the protection of the source against dust, and the second - moisture.

Also, a compact model can be placed in the trunk of a car. When changing a wheel, for an evening enjoying the outdoors this light unit would be the best acquisition. Charge the spotlight in several ways: from the network, through the car cigarette lighter socket and USB-port. LEDs are known for their low power consumption. Therefore, to keep the charge led spotlight will be long.

The portable super bright light can be in height from 24 to 35 cm depending on the number of led, and varies the power source. LEDs support three color temperature of white light. These values are measured in Kelvin. The higher the value, the light will be colder.

How to Choose Pools Lighting

The main requirement for lamps for swimming pools is water resistance, especially for underwater models. Their body and conductive elements must be completely sealed. In addition, lighting should be low voltage - no more than 24 V. In order not to exceed that limit, in the pools often mounted luminaires equipped with step-down transformer. But the best choice would be LED lighting.

Of great importance for lighting the pool it has a quality of light - it has to be bright, evenly distributed around the room and have a shimmering effect. It is important that at the junction of the water and the surrounding area did not arise optical contrast, which is necessary to properly distribute the lights under the water, on the surface of the walls and ceiling.

Devices for general space illumination are mainly used in public swimming pools and water sports complex. Typically, these fixtures are a group of industrial instruments, so its design is not very original. Among the main advantages of general purpose luminaires include low cost, high degree of protection against dust and moisture, and ease of installation - devices suspended from the ceiling or mounted on the wall. The main disadvantage is sufficiently high energy consumption (except for the LED lamps).

Contour lighting (e.g. remote controlled submersible LED lights) is best suited for swimming pools, where you want to issue an original interior. These devices are made of flexible fiber, performed on individual projects and are used for installation of custom lighting. Among the advantages of luminaires can distinguish economical energy consumption and durability among the minuses - a rather high cost.

Underwater lights are widely used for the installation of lighting systems in the basins of the open type. Depending on the method of installation of such devices can be embedded, overhead and attachments. Recessed LED lights are installed in the bottom or wall of the pool, false models are mounted on the walls and hanging - along the upper edge of the boards. To get the best quality underwater lights, appliances must be installed opposite one another or fastened in a staggered manner at a distance of two to three meters. Choosing underwater lights (e.g. 12V underwater LED lights) for the pool is necessary to pay attention to the material of the body and the type of lighting elements. The most common case is made of stainless steel or die-cast aluminum, and light sources are monochromatic or LEDs. It is worth noting that LED-lights - perfect for lighting pools. They are of high quality, secure and reliable, have low power consumption and long service life, do not overheat and do not emit UV rays.

LED Solar Lights for Christmas Lighting

Recently, very popular among consumers began to use LED lights are solar-powered. These lights are very practical and easy to use on suburban areas, Camping or camping. They can be made in various configurations by, small and compact prior to, and overall cumbersome.

All LED lamps can be divided into three main categories are often used by consumers:

• Street lights with storage batteries can be seen in the alleys of parks, car parks, parks and stadiums.
• Garden and park lamps are used in suburban areas and private country houses. To this kind may also include signal lights and motion sensors installed on private parking lots.
• The third type of home lighting products includes wall lamp, and the light fixtures (e.g. coloured lantern lights) installed on the balconies, loggias, verandas and gazebos.

LED lights on the batteries do not require connection to electricity. They get their energy from sunlight, which with the help of a specially established panel is converted into electrical energy. Keep in mind that after the lamp charge from sunlight during the whole day, and cannot stop working 12 hours after this time it will again need to be recharged.

LED ribbon should be placed in a bowl and combine it with a solar battery, which in turn should be connected to the battery (for a small lamp, you can use a cell phone battery or similar appliance). Next, set the lantern on the street for charging in the sun. LED lamp, powered by a solar cell is practical to use and install. It can be used at their summer cottage or outdoor recreation. It does not require connection to the mains and it is absolutely secure, surrounded by small children, which is important. BTW, you can select the LED Solar Lights at Banggood. Besides, you can easily get other LED lights (e.g. rose flower lights) there with high quality and reasonable prices.

How to Choose a Quality Bulb

Incandescent lamps are the most common source of light for residential use. For over a hundred years ago, the industry has mastered the production of such lamps. However, the global problem of energy conservation has called into question the use of incandescent lamps because of their high power consumption. Part of this power is simply a "warm air", which is a disadvantage of lamps of this type.

European countries have almost completely abandoned the production of incandescent light bulbs in favor of energy-saving lamps. However, in the former USSR, incandescent lamps are widely used due to its low cost and resistance to voltage change. In addition incandescent lamps do not contain any toxic substances and do not require special measures for their disposal. In the first place must pay attention to the size and shape of the bulb, and the terminal units. Modern lamps are available at a sufficiently compact lamp.

Dimensions are standardized lamp base. The most commonly used bulbs with E27 base, E14, E12 (e.g. E12 220V light bulb) and E10. Digital signage determines the diameter of the thread of the cap in millimeters. The letter "E" indicates that this is a threaded socket (Edison Screw). Also lamps distinguish the types of pads. Type "A" has the smallest area of contact, the type "C" – highest. Note the method of connecting the outer contact member with the cap. Spot welding (type "B") and solder (type "A" and "C") is most commonly used.

When choosing an incandescent lamp, it is necessary to pay attention to the way the bulb attachment to the cap, and fixing the filament. To connect to a glass flask with a metal cap used special postmark. In this connection it is easily visible through the flask. Poor fixation filament leads to an increase in the transition resistance at the point of contact and "burn" lamps. BTW, you can select the quality bulbs (e.g. LED B22 candle) at Banggood for high quality and reasonable prices.

GU10 Ceramic Lamp Holder

Each lamp in addition to other elements of the design is the so-called "chuck" – simply. It's a part of the lamp which is inserted or screwed threaded lamp base. There is a conventional alphanumeric system type designation of the cap, which is shared by all manufacturers of lighting equipment:

XXYYz - where XX is one or two capital letters indicating the type and subtype of the lamp cap,

YY - is a number indicating the diameter of  the connecting portion of the cap or on  the distance between the contact pins of the cap,

Z - lowercase letter indicates the number of contact plates, flexible joints or pins in the basement . 

First Latin capital letter indicates the type of cap:

- The letter B is a pin socket (bayonet)

- Letter E indicates a screw cap, also called Edison Screw

- Letter of the G - pin

- Letter P - focusing

- Letter R - plinth with recessed contact

- Letter S - soffit base

The second capital letter is a subtype of the cap, not common, mainly in the "pin base."

Last lowercase Latin letter:

- S - one contact

- D- two pins

- T - three contacts

- Of q - four pins

- P - five contacts

GU10 ceramic lamp holder is in the lamp socket.  The figures indicate in the distance between the centers of the pins and pins for more of the diameter of the circle on which the center pin. In this case, in the GU10 socket base two pins and the distance between them of 10 mm. Most often this type of lamp used in cap ceiling and accent lighting. In lamps with GU10 base, there are visible thickening at the end of the contacts, for connection to the rotary chuck.

How to Choose a Table Lamp for Student

C beginning of the school year, close attention should be paid to the working student place the organization, in particular, the lighting. From table lamp depends on many things: the impact of the work-being of the child after its completion, etc. When properly selected and installed on the child table lamp you can expect good results in the performance classes. This is explained by the fact that the eyes do not get tired at the right light, it means that the child does not overwork.

Courtesy lamp color and the ceiling are of great practical importance. Preferably, the lamp is with conical lampshade. Such a narrow base of the ceiling, and the edges - wide, so will be the maximum coverage. The color of the ceiling should not be very bright, as bright light will distract the child from work. The best color for the ceiling - green. Green shades do not distract the eye and allow the muscles to relax. Good and quiet pastel shades. What is important also material from which made the ceiling. Good plastic ceiling, but the poor quality plastic, they may start to melt when the light is on for a long time. This raises the risk of fire. It is necessary to choose a lamp from a solid, fairly thick plastic. Often, for the manufacture of lampshades lamps used metal. It is fireproof and durable. But a drawback - it is heated, so your child can get burned when he wants to fix the lamp. And also, a tricyclic LED Light on the desk would be more interesting.

Tripod lamps are well suited table lamp, having a flexible leg rigidly secured to the table. At the same time the lamp leg can be fully flexible or rotate on the hinges in three planes. Securing the lamp outside the working area can significantly increase the workspace table. When rigidly attached excluded lamp falling. Using a flexible stem lamp can illuminate any part of the table without moving the fixture. Desirably, the cover was not transparent. He will direct the flow of light on the table, not blind eyes of a child. To the light from the bulb was a little absent-minded, from the ceiling must be a reflector. BTW, you can select the Table Lamp at Banggood. Besides, you can easily get other electrical accessories (e.g. 1200mAh Li-ion battery) there with high quality and reasonable prices.

How to Choose a Spotlight to Illuminate the Yard

Current owners of country houses often choose to illuminate their yards the powerful spotlights, allowing maximum light the local area and scare off intruders. What kind of spotlight is best suited for this purpose?

There are four types of spotlights - halogen, metal halide, sodium and LED. The basis is a halogen incandescent spotlight with buffer gas added to the cylinder, which makes this product a high-temperature lighting device as its spirals working temperature can reach 3000K. Metal projectors operate based on the high-pressure discharge lamp, the burner which is metered radiating additive, adjusting the spectral characteristics of arc discharge mercury vapor. BTW, you can select the spotlights at Banggood. Besides, you can easily get other lighting (e.g. USB touch sensor) there with high quality and reasonable prices.

Metal, sodium and halogen luminaires, unlike LED spotlights (e.g. color changing led flood light) are unstable vibration. The light source in sodium floodlights are the sodium high-pressure discharge lamps. During the gas discharge glowing heat occurs in sodium vapor, which leads to a monochromatic radiation. The light source in LED spotlight consists of environmentally friendly LEDs do not contain mercury components. Experts do not recommend to buy the first got the spotlight, and the first to evaluate the work of the type of lamp, which is a priority in the selection of the lighting device.

Halogen spotlights have excellent luminous efficacy and color rendering, as well as targeted lighting certain areas of the yard. They offer high performance, made of tempered glass and operated at a high temperature without any problem. Sodium units provide a bright yellow-orange light due to the prevailing sodium light, but when illuminated give unsatisfying color reproduction. Sodium floodlights advantage is their versatility, which allows to combining the device with other light sources.

Floodlights with poor color rendition are commonly used for lighting of industrial buildings or street lighting. Metal halide units allow cool bright light and have a high color rendering / light output. They are extremely reliable due to the resistance to voltage drops, as well as protection against dust and moisture, so metal halide lamps are perfect for lighting the yard. However, the most high-quality option is LED spotlights (e.g. LED PIR spotlight), which are completely made of strong and durable high quality materials. They provide precise directional flow of light, instantly turn on and are stable even at low voltage network.

How to Connect a Wall Light

Wall lamp allows you to create a romantic and subdued lighting in the room. If you are familiar with the electricity, you can connect your own wall lamp by place not only close to the outlet, as often happens, and in accordance with your idea of comfort.

For wiring to be seen, during the repair of the walls do not forget to lay all the cables in the walls.  If the walls are covered with plaster, before all the work, wall using the gun and run wires, then cover them with a mixture of cement or plaster. It is possible to bring the wire in the plinth and pull them to the box for special slots or be integrated in the screed before laying self-leveling floor. And if you choose lights for outer wall, you can get the PIR stainless steel wall lights.

After finishing the walls begin installation of lighting. Turn off the power at the mains. On the wall mark the install location, enclosing the luminaire body. Note the location for holes. It is convenient to do was knit to the lamp with the back of the pieces of plasticine or double-sided tape.

Drill the holes using a drill with a large drill. The resulting hole, insert the plug and screw the lamp cover back with screws. Connect the lamp to the terminal wire supply, isolate and place in the box. Note that the terminals must be connected in the correct sequence: wire "grounded" to the earth terminal in the junction box, and then insulated wires - to the pads of the lamp. Screw the lid box, assemble the remaining elements of the fixture, screw in the bulb. Installing the lamp is completed. Recheck the mounting reliability and plug it in. BTW, you can select the wall lights at Banggood. Besides, you can easily get other lighting (e.g. solar pool fence cap lights) there with high quality and reasonable prices.

If you need to carry out installation of wall lamp in the bathroom or the bathroom, read the appropriate SNIP. Buy only water proof 12-volt appliances. Transformer for fixtures located outside the bathroom. In any case, switches and lights themselves must be placed no closer than 60 cm from the bath or sink.

USB LED Lamp for Notebook

Probably very few people can imagine how strong will in our lives computers be. Today, these electronic computers do not take up the whole room. On the other hand, manufacturers are striving to make them compact, but retain power. Today, laptops have become indispensable helpers. We love them for their small size, light weight, and quite important - mobility. The laptop you can take it almost anywhere.

However, not all models are available for the keyboard backlight. In 90% of the work on a laptop, it is not necessary. But if you have to use a computer in the field, where there is no place to take the electricity, and then comes the problem. That they do not occur, use a special PC USB light, which is connected via USB-port. 

Led lamp consumes little energy, which is very important for all storage devices. In addition, the inclusion of a particular LED has no effect on their service life. And it, by the way, is long, about 50,000 hours. A light bulb is close to the natural light spectrum, which is best seen by the human eye. It produces virtually no heat, so does not cause discomfort when turned on. Moreover, led sources emit no ultraviolet light. Often the portable USB light for notebook has a flexible stem that allows you to adjust and fix the light source at the correct height.

Do You Like the Retro Light Bulbs?

Today, it is popular to use the retro light bulbs. In particular, the widespread they got in the retro interior. Any Edison lamp is perfectly with open electrical wiring in the retro style.

Meanwhile, the search for the marked lamp in the free market is not as easy as it might seem at first glance. They are not the product for mass consumption. Therefore, the price is much higher than ordinary incandescent lamps. BTW, you can select the incandescent lamps at Banggood. Besides, you can easily get the 110V LED light there with high quality and reasonable prices.

Naturally, the only advantage, which is present in unusual lamps - it is their shape, as well as a spiral. It is a form of the DNA helix. In particular, using a spiral light dimmer cannot at full capacity. In this case, it will be clearly visible. In other words, the sole purpose for which Edison bulb can serve - aesthetics.

As mentioned below, it loses the characteristics of modern LED light sources:

• Energy consumption;
• durability;
• brittleness.

In general, the Edison lamp will last no more than three or four months. Tungsten spiral eventually burn out. In addition, buying a lamp of this type is strongly recommended that only well-established stores. The fact is that if not properly packaged lamp Edison's very easy to shake off. Meanwhile, we can hardly say that fixing such a luminaire cannot be.

The market offers the following capacities: 40 and 80 watts. More simply it is not necessary to produce. It has already been said that the Edison lamp (e.g. E27 40W light bulbs) operate more aesthetic function. Today buy these light sources can be in almost every country. We are talking about buying a lamp through the Internet. It makes sense to pay a few dollars to the mediator spent most quality packaging.

LED Garden Lights for Lighting and Decoration

Today electric energy is constantly increasing in price, and economy is becoming increasingly important, as very often we get a rather impressive electricity bill, which is not very pleased with our purse. Technology is also not standing still and is constantly evolving, the market now you can find a lot of various energy-saving appliances, devices for storing and generating cheap electricity.

Do not pass and the technology associated with lighting. Now, to light plot near the house very often use these convenient and cost-effective devices like lamps with solar batteries, or as is customary for them to speak, garden LED lights for the house.

Today there are many varieties of garden lights, which are used for different kinds of lighting. They differ in appearance, the method of application, place of installation, therefore should be dismantled, what lights are to choose and organize the illumination of its garden site with his own hands.

Let's get down to the analysis of species:

1. Wall compact 4 LED solar lights. They have a very high lighting quality, very reliable and easy to use. Lamps with solar batteries for the walls can be installed on any surface and in any place, only under the condition that the sunlight gets there. When fully charged internal battery, self-contained lights can operate for about ten to twelve hours, which is enough to illuminate the area during the whole night. They can also be portable, day charge on the street, and at night are entered and fixed in place inside the house.
2. Garden ground lamp. Is a great way to illuminate the entire area, flowerbeds, garden paths, to separate the individual elements, and so on. Installation of such devices is very simple, simply insert their stake in the ground.
3. Park or large garden lights. They have quite a big height is not less than three meters. Flashlight LED garden pl233 is powered by batteries that are charged by a large plate with the photocells mounted.
4. Small decorative micro LED bar lights. They are perfect for lighting shrubs, selection boxes, and various elements of the decor. Often used for illumination of billboards and banners.

Test Overview of LED lamp E27

Now I put on the table for the next test lamp, a 60W E27 incandescent lamp. Advance does not want to talk, though I know the test results)). Let me remind you that I have already been tested by 2 copies of the lamp 7 watt different standard performance and form-factor and the cap. Tests on them can be found by referring to the search site. The results are almost identical. According to the conclusions of these lamps I put it a solid four.

The 12W bulb was most interesting for me, because I wanted to see how it performed and that it has such than it might interest buyers. I must say that there is no accuracy in the description - the lamp is not just made of plastic. Inside is installed around the perimeter of the aluminum heat sink thickness of 1.5 mm. The rest seems clear.

Nice packaging made of plastic with prints. Conventional box of paper is no longer relevant. In any case, if the shelves I saw such a package, make sure you went in the first place for them. All it has done clearly and beautifully - on the German quality, despite the fact that the lamps are collected in China.

Hmm ... just noticed ... Energy efficiency class! If you look at the picture, the energy efficiency class is a Class "A". Either it is not accuracy or mistake, or it is done on purpose. In the box there is an instruction manual and a reminder on coated paper.

Disassemble the lamp is not much fun. It is necessary to try very much to more or less "nice" to break the lamp. The joints are filled with sealant, so you have to wield a knife or a long time, or have recourse to a faster method - hacksaw. Thus, the lamp is disassembled. And that appears to us inside. The first is a flask of opaque plastic. As with the inner and the outer side there is no roughness. Light "disappear" will not.

How to Choose the Right Bra to the Ceiling Lights

Reputable designers believe that the priority in the complete lighting pair of chandeliers and sconces are the shape and color. However, they argue that a great number of beautiful interiors created by a skillful mixture of styles, configurations, textures and colors.

Well thought out in advance if the manufacturer compliance sconce lamp and released immediately set, but not all brands offer chandelier lamps. In this case, the head will have to break. Usually, wall gets to the chandelier, as wall lamp cannot create full illumination in the room.

Is there a need for a bra?

Experts believe that the LED ceiling downlight lamps are designed for local lighting when you need to illuminate a mirror in the bedroom or in the bathroom, to temper the bright light in the living room while watching TV, read a book before going to sleep, without interfering with the loved one. If the bra is designed to illuminate the mirror, then you need to pick up not only to the ceiling lights as directly to the mirror.

Bra is ideal in small rooms on the area where the chandelier is simply cumbersome to anything. There sconces will serve as a source of additional room lighting. If the fixture is equipped with a dimmable G9 LED bulb, it is possible to dispense with wall lights. Designers often recommend creating a uniform lighting, pleasant to the eye and good for the view, which can be done by combining a compact ceiling lights with light sconces.

What effect would like to receive from the additional lighting?

Wall lamp strife, as modern sconces are often easily adjusted. Yes, and a fixed shade can be directed both upwards and downwards. However, the movable ceiling have more advantages, because playing with the light, you can change the space of the room visually. Plafonds, upward, visually help to raise a low ceiling and wall lamps, "looking" down, do a little more spacious room.

Types of Incandescent Bulbs and Their Functionality

Among the artificial lighting sources, incandescent bulbs are the most massive bulbs. Wherever there is an electric current, can detect the transformation of its energy into light, and is almost always used for this purpose incandescent lamps. We will understand how and what glows in them, and what they are.

According to their function, incandescent lamps’ general purposes are most common (LON). All LON produced must meet the requirements of GOST 2239-79. They are used for exterior and interior, as well as for decorative lighting (e.g. 60W E27 bulb), domestic and industrial networks with a voltage of 127 V and 220 V, 50 Hz. 

BOSOMS have a relatively short period of time, an average of 1,000 hours and low efficiency - they are converted into light only 5% of the electricity, and the rest is released as heat. A feature of low power (25 W) LON is used therein as a filament, a thread coal.

Spot lights bulbs differ significantly larger than the other types, capacity and are designed for accent lighting or filing of light signals over long distances. According to state standards are divided into three groups: the film projecting lamps (GOST 4019-74), for general purpose (GOST 7874-76) and lighthouse lamps (GOST 16301-80). Incandescent body in floodlight lamps longer and thus arranged more compact to enhance the overall brightness and further focusing the light flux.

Mirror incandescent bulb is distinguished by a special design and a reflective aluminum layer. The light guide portion of the bulb is made of frosted glass, which makes the light soft and smooth out the contrasting shadows of objects.

BTW, you can select the wholesale Edison bulbs at Banggood with high quality and reasonable prices.

How to Make LED Lights

Despite the fact that in modern shops the range of diverse subjects of goods for every taste, still considerable popular items made with their own hands - not because they cannot buy, but because their production will bring you a lot of pleasure and experience .One of these items can be called a simple LED flashlight . You can make headlamp LED flashlight with your own hands, and then use it in the home.

You will need simple materials that are easily available in any home - a soldering iron battery "Krona" (two pieces - new and old), a resistor, two 10W high power LED chips and thin strips of tin. Also, you need a pair of scissors that can cut plate.

Take a tin plate, which will be the base of the flashlight and, and solder it to the finished metal clamp to the battery. If you do not have a collar, you can just bend his strips and then soldered to the substrate. Reinforce the "crown" in the yoke and make sure that it is held firmly and tightly.

Now take the old battery "Krona" and disassemble it. The internal battery contents you do not need - it can be thrown away. Extract the contents of the batteries small cutters, cut a third of the old batteries with sharp scissors, metal, solder, and then the remainder of the battery to the bottom of your future lantern.

Set inside the terminal board and solder it to the LEDs, taking into account the polarity. After that, take switch and solder it to the structure that it is connected to the LEDs. Glue gun or epoxy fill construction and allow complete drying of the adhesive.

To ready a flashlight in, attach the elastic band, so it can be worn on the forehead, freeing your hands for other work. BTW, you can select the LED lights (e.g. LED 10W floodlight) at Banggood for high quality and reasonable prices.

How to Choose LED Street Lighting

Outdoor lighting should be organized, subject to certain requirements. Reliability, operating safety and longevity - the main features that should meet the lighting LED street lighting. In addition, lighting fixtures for outdoor lighting should be aesthetic. Consider what are modern light fixtures for streets?

Street lighting devices are classified according to several criteria:

• Style. Most of the equipment is performed in classical, eastern, ethnic or modern style.
• Number of lampshades. He may be one, but often design is complemented by several shades.
• Lamp LED street lighting can have a bowl of any shape;
• Method: modern lighting equipment can be suspended, wall-mounted or embedded.

Wall street lamps presented in numerous non-standard variations that allow to personalize the surrounding landscape. They can be used to illuminate large areas or to focus attention on the garden paths and other areas. Wall allows to transforming the surrounding space. In terms of design lamp LED street lighting is a bowl with fittings and mounting bracket, which attaches the device to the wall.

Street lighting equipment of recessed type is good because it is not visible during the day and at night it allows you to create original light accents. This type is widely used in ground lighting trees, billboards, stairs, railings, transitions, and retaining walls. Recessed luminaires can be installed in public buildings and facilities, manufacturing facilities, office and administrative offices. Choosing LED lighting industry, it is necessary to take into account high humidity, severe temperature conditions, the presence of dust and vibrations in the workplace.

BTW, you can select the LED street lights at Banggood. Besides, you can easily get other LED light (e.g. LED solar fairy lights, garden floodlight) there with high quality and reasonable prices. 

Advice on Drafting for LED Strings

1) The text on the LED-bar should be as informative. It is necessary to specify only the essence of the information you are trying to convey to a potential customer. No need to insert large amounts of information, the customer simply will not wait for the fact that he is interested in will be on the line. Information should interest him. It may be advertising the main types of services or products offered or information about the price drop.

2) It is necessary to correctly calculate the flow rate of the information on the display scrolling text. If it is in a crowded place, then we can safely count on the average time of 5-10 seconds and use more informative feed point and the types of services offered, company name, phone number and a short description. If the board is in place of a moving stream, then the feed rate information on a running line should be maximized, and the actual text and capacious as informative. The special effects in this case will only interfere. The text should be in the form of short words and phrases.

3) Insert the text in a marquee your company name or logo. Even if a potential buyer would be no need at the moment to write to you, in the future, he will remember you when the need will. The name of the organization should not be too often flickering in the text. Better to appear for a few seconds, not more.

4) Use different color schemes of presenting information. For example, highlight the services offered in one color, and other contact information.

5) Try to keep the information transmitted by you on the LED screen, has always been important. If there are discounts, new services and products, a potential buyer would be useful to know about it.  Also, if possible, you can advance to warn customers about upcoming promotions and discounts. 

6) If your running line is equipped with a temperature sensor and built-in clock, connect these functions. This will attract more attention to it and make the man himself and focus on the supplied information, you want to bring him.

BTW, you can select the cotton ball light at Banggood. Besides, you can easily get other holiday decorative lights (e.g. wedding curtain lights) there with high quality and reasonable prices.

USB LED Strips, Organization of Additional Lighting

As you might guess from the name alone, it’s a strip with integrated LEDs. It looks, however, as a transparent tube, or rather, a flexible hose is glowing. The fact is that the LED strip is embedded in a transparent protective cover of rubber or plastic, and its exterior forms. Although with a strong desire, it can be found "naked" tape. It can be powered via a connection to a computer via USB connector or from the wall outlet using an adapter. USB input power (e.g. 12V 10A power supply) gives about 5 watts, so that the power consumption at a minimum the tape. LED strip can be presented in two versions:

l  Monochrome

l  Three-color or RGB

In the first case, it typically emits an ordinary white light typical of LED Lighting. However, there are also versions with red, green, blue and yellow tint. Since the LED ribbon shine rather weakly, then, as the light source, its use is problematic, although possible, but fit just right as decorative lighting. It can burn in several modes: a constant light, "wavy" or "one-two" (one off, while the others are waiting in the wings, a second ignited next, and the previous one goes off and so on indefinitely). Mode depends on the factory setting.

Besides, now you can often see a garland, change their mode of every 5-10 minutes. This requires a special controller, which can be embedded acquired USB 5 Volt LED strip, or purchased separately (in which case it will have to be connected by soldering alone, so it is recommended to use all the built-in versions). All that is necessary for the start of the holiday - it powered from the computer - and enjoy the view.

It is used in most modern matrix monitors, laptops, televisions and other products, working on Led technology. Just monitors notebooks, for example, used microscopic invisible to the eye diodes forming the panel. If someone is paying attention to the huge monitors mounted on the stages, and then there just might see these very large LED panel lights. Just as large as in the LED ribbon, which we are discussing today. We can say that it is a by-product of high technology (tear from a huge monitor, "thread", probably would have looked exactly like a garland).

Why We Use LED Street Floodlights?

To highlight the local area, pools, tunnels, as well as objects in need of protection, we use different lighting. Among the most popular are the LED street floodlights. Why use it them?

LED street floodlights can function in any climatic conditions, i.e. withstand high temperature fluctuations and any precipitation. Furthermore, they are not subjected to mechanical damage.

Another important measure is the power consumption low. It is thanks to this quality, LED flashlight Searchlight gained popularity. It began to be used not only for domestic purposes, but also for light industrial and security facilities. It is increasingly used to illuminate small objects, such as a store, a garage, and advertising signs.

Advantages of lamps among the positive qualities of these high power LED lights are the following:

• Low power consumption. Compared to conventional incandescent LED lights consume 10 times less. This figure compared with energy saving lamps. The result of the measurement showed that the power consumption is 3 times less.
• Large service life. Driving LED spotlight is quite simple, so it can operate for 10 years.
• Made of environmentally friendly materials, that is, do not bring harm to the environment.
• High price;
• Many manufacturers prescribe life of 10 years. However, this figure does not correspond to reality. Lamp does not work more than 5 years. It all depends on the conditions of use. In continuous operation of the port LEDs. First they lose their brightness, and then burned completely.
• To increase the life of the need to use an additional source of cooling and power. Such devices serve to protect the torch from power surges. However, the cost of such devices is quite high.

The 10 watt LED chip is the most popular model among the population. Many people are interested in the question: 10W LED spotlight is shining as the LED matrix is in a metal case. It also set the power supply, which in addition to basic functions, is used to remove heat from the matrix. The device operates from an ordinary consumer main with a voltage of 220 V. Therefore, you do not want to use any other equipment.

Table Lamp is an indispensable assistant in the office, in a place where children do their homework in the bedroom. Original table lamp is able to create a cozy atmosphere for a romantic dinner. How to choose a table lamp or laptop reading light of good quality and at a reasonable price?

According to their functional purpose table lamps are working and decorative. Before you buy a table lamp, it is necessary to estimate its parameters and security. Doctors are advised to pay attention not so much on the exterior, but on the direction of light and power of the appliance. Modern lamp plafond different material, shapes, lighting type. Wireless table lamp stands out separately. 

Today went on sale wireless lights that are recharged by solar panels or batteries. The products possess such qualities as energy and environmental security.

The advantages of battery reading lights with LEDs

To cordless lamp to work, it needs to be equipped with batteries. This lamp can be installed in the toilet room, the basement, in the locker room and other places where there is no conventional lighting. 

Compared with other lighting devices, wireless lamp feature: 

- A huge energy savings

- working at full power, the lamp does not heat up. 

The benefits of operating a wireless lamp have long appreciated the owners of cafes and restaurants. Approach lighting is the key to have fun and create an intimate atmosphere.

How to Choose a LED Tape

LED strip is a long circuit board on which a bright and high-power LEDs. This device is ideal for the decoration of any premises. Due to its flexibility and compactness of the tape profitable emphasizes the contours of the interior design projects, provides illumination of niches for small and large sizes (e.g. 5m LED strip).

The most common tapes are SMD3528 and SMD5050. Abbreviation SMD reported that the installation of this type of electronic component is a superficial, i.e. the diode contacts are soldered directly to the mounting surface. SMT is widely used in electronics because of its compactness. The figures given after this abbreviation to indicate the size of the LEDs: 5050 - LED 5 x 5 mm, 3528 - diode 3.5 x 2.8 mm.

Having carefully reviewed the product, you will notice that the SMD 5050 there are six pins and SMD in 3528 LED strip light - two. The fact is that the first single crystal consists of three, and the last - only one. Accordingly, the brightness of the glow tape, 5050 SMD intense, but its price is higher.

An important role in choosing the color of the LED strip is given glow. One-color tape can be blue, green, yellow, red or white. However, if you want during the operation to change the color of light ribbon, choose full-color (RGB). To get the desired color, is enough to press the button on the remote controller.

Intending to use the tape in a room with high humidity or outdoors, pay attention to its protection class. Tapes can be water proof, for example, 12V waterproof LED strip lights. The latter is clearly visible conductive layer, and portions of the soldering elements are not protected, so their use is limited to places where the moisture they certainly will not get.
