Instructions about Installing LED Rope Lighting

June 10, 2011 Category :Lighting Wiki 0

Have you ever had any experience of installing LED rope lighting by yourself? If you know something about installing LED rope lighting, you need not ask someone else for help and thus it is money-saving. Come on, just have a try. Are you ready? Here are some instructions which may offer you some help.

Measure the space before purchasing your LED rope lighting and get a rope that will span the breadth of the space. LED rope lighting can add ambiance to any household space. This home-based lighting solution has become increasingly popular because it is thin and easy to place behind artwork or other focal points for creative backlighting. It is easier to get one long rope for the entire space than to string together several smaller ropes.

Make sure the clips are large enough to accommodate the diameter of your LED rope light before nailing them in; the rope’s thickness depends on the brand and model. LED rope lighting uses less energy than traditional incandescent light bulbs. LED lights are even more energy efficient than that of competing “green” compact fluorescent lights, consuming “half the electricity” and lasting “about ten times as long” according to Michael Bloch’s Green Living Tips article “LED: Lighting the Way.”

Nail plastic cable clips half-way into to the installation area at regular intervals. You want to leave a little space to slide in the LED light rope before nailing in the clip all the way — unless, of course, you purchase clips that still have space for the rope even after they are fully nailed in. If you want the rope to hang a bit, then leave a lot of space between each clip; if you want the LED rope lighting to be pulled tight, place the clips about 8 inches apart. Luckily for savvy consumers, installing LED lights is very easy with just some basic tools and a little bit of knowhow.

Finish nailing in the clips, being carefully not to accidentally hit the LED light rope with your hammer. Hang the rope from the clips. Plug in your LED light rope to a standard electrical outlet. Some light ropes have “on” and “off” switches, others will simply turn on when they are plugged in. Use electrical tape to cover parts of the LED rope light that you do not want illuminated. This step is especially useful if you’re snaking the rope up a wall to go behind a picture frame or piece of artwork; covering the exposed rope will allow for exclusive backlighting. To blend with the wall, you may also use textured tape and paint the tape after has been stuck to the rope.

Got it? Hope that you can really learn something about installing LED rope lighting from this article. Enjoy yourself!

How to Install Bedroom Lamps

May 27, 2011 Category :Lighting Wiki 0

A suitable bedroom lamp can make your bedroom more beautiful and make you more enjoyable. We have different tastes of bedroom lamps but we do have similar methods of installing bedroom lamps. However, do you know how to install bedroom lamps?

Are you confused about adding a little lighting to your bedroom? You generally have three options: a floor lamp, a table lamp and a ceiling lamp. The first two are no-brainers; you plug in the lamp and you’re finished. But the latter–the ceiling lamp–can be a bit trickier. What’s the best way, after all, to hang a bedroom lamp? While there’s certainly more to it than simply plugging it in, it needn’t be a headache. As long as there’s a ceiling box in the room, you can do it.

Run the cord through the following lamp components, in this order: first, the threaded nut, second, the ceiling cover, third, the threaded connector, and fourth, the bracket. Most, probably all, of these lamp components are typically included together when you purchase the lamp itself. If not, you can obtain them separately at any hardware store.

Wire the lamp. This involves connecting two wires, usually a white wire and a black wire. There should be a white and a black wire in the ceiling box, and these correspond to a white and black wire connected to the lamp. Connect the white wire from the lamp with the white wire in the ceiling box, then connect two black wires the same way.

Attach a bracket to the ceiling box. Use screws to accomplish this. Attach the threaded connector to the bracket. Typically the threaded connector simply screws right in.

Attach the ceiling cover to the threaded connector and bracket. It should cover both of these–and it should conceal the ceiling box apparatus as well. Generally, ceiling covers are either twist-on or attached via screws.

Follow the steps abovementioned and make your bedroom more attractive. Good luck!

May 21, 2011 Category :News 0

On April 2, the 2011 Lighting Brand Strategy & Sketches Conference was held in Changchun. I was invited to attend the conference and I found that the lighting arrangements in the conference were quite impressive.

The past, the industry often choose the same type of meeting in hotels, guesthouses, etc. held in a closed environment, but the venue was Guanhua this election home in Changchun International Lighting City Lights hall courtyard, is an open space, which an arrangement that the meeting organizers hope to peers and even ordinary consumers can come to participate, to expand its influence, seems unique. Thin view, the arrangement of the meeting site have different emphases, the nature of the meeting at that same time, background and banner highlights the efforts of enterprises to promote brand awareness, this year in January signed on as spokesman for the Taiwan movie star Guanhua lighting is propaganda Miss Jia Jingwen focus. Click here to know more about china suppliers.

Since the choice of the open environment, and allow non-related personnel to attend, the organizers of the arrangement of the contents of the meeting will accordingly have made some different adjustments than in the past, highlighting the entertainment side, interspersed intermittently at the meeting a number of styles unique cultural performances, attracted a lot of lighting the city to come to the attention of consumers to shop. One of the most eye-catching is “just dance” performance, the dancers is the logistics center of Jilin Chen Koon Wah, General Manager of the thousands of Jinchen Chun Yang standard petite friends, superb dancing drew warm applause from the audience. From the contents, Guanhua of the meeting is not unique, brand strategy for the year 2011, only describes the broad strategic direction and rough outline of the operational processes only, of course, also related to the environment and open meetings, I Early chairman, says that related matters will be issued in the form of a document.

But the organizers for details of the arrangements but it is very unique, not only held a successful meeting, the meeting itself became a kind of corporate support for local distributors in the form, and very good results, but also strengthened its cooperation with the logistics center of the close relationship between stores. I think that Guanhua as a second line under the brand so much that the power of originality, it is rare, it is worth learning from the industry.

Liu Hongzhi (Doctor of Management, Zhejiang University): There may be excess production capacity, and market demand is not big enough.

Taohai Qing (Vice President of Zhejiang Precision Construction): As a national strategic investment, it is necessary.

Liu Weiguo (Marketing Manager of Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. Shenzhen): The growth of indoor LED lights this year is mainly due to the price per 200 yuan from last year’s decline to the current 160 to 170 yuan, which greatly promoted the LED lights marketing.

A: Those who have the “use of product price competition, make a left” into the LED industry and business, will only disrupt the current market, the LED industry, the formation of more negative; advise that people and businesses or not to enter the best, according to the current development trend, as technology advances, such opportunities will be less and less the cost of risk will gradually increase. As strategic-oriented industries, key enterprises, state support is necessary and reasonable Planning industrial chain, the government should do, not multi-purpose LED lamp is the best support.

B: Chinese people do business has always been a “herd” the fine tradition, LED industry is no exception. LED lighting, portable energy, environmental protection and the advantages of more “fire in the mess”, unrest is fueling the investment enthusiasm of the Chinese people, all walks of life the various people, all kinds of people reached the LED all the way to the battlefield, a great fight to the bitter trend.

C: As many companies have taken a fancy LED lighting development “money scene”, and are into the field and disorderly competition in the industry further exacerbated the chaos. The reality is that the current LED interior lighting is still only used in large factories and supermarkets, has not really entered the household, which largely affected the LED market promotion and development. On the one hand is still too high people can not afford the price of lead, the other is the “herd” the blind expansion of industries, leading to uneven product quality throughout the industry, affecting the LED lights in the image of the minds of consumers.
