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.

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.

What Are the Advantages of LED Strip Light?

LED light sources produce not only a lamp but also in the embodiment of a flexible circuit board covered with a layer of silicone. These tapes are widely used in the industry of illuminated advertising and decorating due to their durability and versatility.

Structurally, the LED ribbon is a printed circuit board whose components are deposited on a flexible basis. Fee includes LED crystals coated with phosphor of different colors, current-limiting resistors and wirings. These elements are hidden in the silicone is thicker than ensuring their full protection from the effects of the environment. 

LED strip appeared after the lamps of the same type at once widespread. His popularity, they must not only high-performance light-emitting characteristics of the conductors, but also the original form. Thanks to the compactness and low power consumption, they are indispensable for the creation of light decorations and outdoor advertising, and the presence of the adhesive layer on the back side allows them to be mounted on most types of surfaces. There are several varieties of LED strips (e.g. 5630 5M LED strip light), each of which has its positive features.

Monochrome ribbons are simpler others. Standard LEDs they are low cost and low power consumption, making monochrome ribbon most common source of such light. The advantages also include their minimum heating and ease of use. His use of LED tape of this type is usually found in the illumination of drywall ceilings and niches or in the static design of the facades.


Some tapes LEDs (e.g. Micro LED light strip) replace conventional semiconductors with a high-brightness light emission. They have a color temperature close to the maximum, and larger than the standard. The main advantage of such belts is very bright glow and intense light output that allows you to use them as the main source of lighting in buildings. Of course, they differ in a great power and more heat.
