Custom LED

[Mike628]

I was wondering what is everything I need to make a custom LED. If I get this kit from rapid led what else will I need?

 

[Reefing Madness]

Something to hang it with.

 

[Mike628]

Is that the only other thing I need @Reefing Madness?

 

[Reefing Madness]

Well, I guess a solder gun, to solder the wires on the LEDs.

 

[Mike628]

Is that it?

 

[Mike628]

So the kit, something to hang it with, and a solder gun?

 

[Reefing Madness]

Sorry, solder also. And yes, thats it. Those kits come with just about everything.

 

[Reefing Madness]

You hook up the wires from the Driver to the LEDs, once they've been attached to the heat sink, and wires soldered to the LED, and turn it on, it fires right up, unless you get the wires on the wrong leads.
You could buy a dimmer if you wished to be able to dim them, but the Driver has an internal dimmer, if you wanted to remove the lid to adjust it.

So thats it? Its that simple?

That's it man.

 

[Reefing Madness]

Yea, thats it, those kits are pretty good.

 

[Mike628]
