How do you plug in a led light strip to it
246000
Austin,I used this unit integrated into an alarm unit for a friend, but as I remember it is has a dc power jack on it for the 12 volt output. It also includes a dc power cable with female connectors on each end. One end plugs into the power jack, the other end will plug into whatever you to operate. You will need a matching male dc power plug, which can be purchased at Radio Shack etc. Hope this helps,Jack

The cable that comes with it is ment to directly plug between devices. For special connections, just cut the cable & add your need connector.

You don't plug it in. You connect the wires from the light to the electrical wires. Easy to do. Just don't get electrocuted.

As far as I know there are two ways to control these light strips- using a 2.5mm center-positive 12v connection, or utilizing the 6803 controller (a much better option in my opinion.) Search for 6803 controller on here or eBay and you'll see them. These strips utilize 4 wires (V+, Gnd, Data, Clock) but also have a barrell jack connector in case you don't get the controller or prefer not to use these to their full capabilities.

so far, I have linked 2 light strips together with no problem. just make sure that your power adaptor uses the most amps possible without damaging your strips. I believe the most you can use is a 12V 5amp adaptor.

You would need to purchase a 10mm 4pin Plug Female Connector Adapter Extension Cable for 5050 RGB LED Strip Lights: 10pcs 10mm 4pin Plug Female Connector Adapter Extension Cable for 5050 RGB LED Strip Lights You would also need a 4 Pin Connector Male for Led Strip Lights RGB 5050: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008LR35VK/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc;=1

Unfortunately, you cannot. This power adapter is not dimmable. As Erik suggested, we typically use dimmers that install between your power adapter and LED strip.

The strip light requires an LED driver with 110 V in and 12 V out, which is purchased separately. That's the best I can tell you.

we simply bought the lights that has the regular outlet adapter to it and plug the other end into a house hold outlet current. hope this helps

There a few options: HitLights 12V DC Connector for Connecting Cut LED Light Strips to Power Sourcesor LE Connector of Single Color LED Strip Light, Connector Strip to Power Adaptor, Pack of 2 UnitsThe tricky part is the width of the strip. there are a couple of widths aka 8mm, etc. I also mounted the strip in 2 Channel end to end and epoxied them together. Offset the cover a couple inches to make a better looking job. there a few style options out there...1m/3.3ft Aluminum V-Shape Channel for flex/hard LED Strip Lights w/ Oyster White Cover - Emulational Neon Effect - V02 1m/3.3ft Aluminum V-Shape Channel for flex/hard LED Strip Lights w/ Oyster White Cover - Emulational Neon Effect - V02 There a few options: HitLights 12V DC Connector for Connecting Cut LED Light Strips to Power Sourcesor LE Connector of Single Color LED Strip Light, Connector Strip to Power Adaptor, Pack of 2 UnitsThe tricky part is the width of the strip. there are a couple of widths aka 8mm, etc. I also mounted the strip in 2 Channel end to end and epoxied them together.

you'll need some kind of USB - DMX interface http://www.amazon.com/Interface-Adapter-DMX512-Lighting-Controller/dp/B009B5MX0K for instance. (I use the enttec product) note this controller box (Keedox) simply dims the output voltage of the three + DC pins for output to a LED strip or fixture, you'll also need an input power supply (and of course the leds - I used something like this: http://www.amazon.com/Flexible-Changing-Ribbon-Ledwholesalers-2034rgb/dp/B00476B908/ and http://www.amazon.com/Ledwholesalers-Power-Suppply-Driver-Transformer/dp/B0034GUEY4 THEN you will also need an application to communicate to the interface, I use this: http://freestylerdmx.be/ because it's free and it works, there are a lot of programs out there that cost hundreds, many of them have free trials, so I tried them, and none worked as well as freestyler as far as I could tell... and there were some really expensive ones out there. As far as I could tell, the real pros who use DMX seem to rely on expensive DMX control boards (HOG, Whole HOG) and not use computers as much. but freestyler has let me put on some cool lightshows on my stage. (http://www.mosquitoe.net/music) also someone mentions this has ethernet ports - it doesn't, it's just a second set of sockets for wiring with RJ-45 plugs, and you cant use them both, one or the other only... DMX control cables come in both flavors and you can mix them in an environment... I think this box could actually transition from DMX to RJ45 but i never tried it.

You will need the interconnect cables - the LED strips are female and the interconnect cables are male.

I'm wondering the same thing. It does NOT power my LED strip, and I'm wondering what's wrong.

You have to get the connectors and then splice it into the correct wire colors. If you dont want to buy the connectors, you could always match the wire location to the solder point on one LED strip, then match the connection you made with the next LED strip. Thats how i do it and it works just fine. Just be careful of bending the solder points to much. They could break the connection causing the LED strip to not work on one side or maybe one color not showing.

If I'm not mistaken, according to the website you need a 12-volt power supply for up to four strips. http://www.hitlights.com/ls3528-rd-gn-bl-144.html

plug a computer power bar into the remote and your four lights into the power bar. CAUTION: DO NOT EXCEED THE MAX WATTAGE OF THE REMOTE!!!

Return the product and find strips in 3 foot sections and a "Y" or multi connector to the lights
