    I wouldn't call that "partway melted." The case is even melted into an arch.

    At least it didn't catch on fire.

      Finding the wrong part at a loooong led strip, part works fine, part flickers, all parallel...

      Hi There!
      I'm trying to help my friend who owns a restaurant be just bought.
      He has a very long LED strip running along all the walls and columns. The strip is attached facing down 2in above the floor, using a wall panel that ends in a metal rail that finishes the panel underneath
      It's stuck using, I guess, the 2 sided tape that comes with the strip
      The issue is that like 1/2 of the full length, including 1/2 one wall, another entire wall, and one column, flickers after 4 or 5 minutes ON. Particularly it flashes staying OFF most of the time and flashing ON for 1 tenth...

      220v Led strip flickering
      by adelage
      Hi, I am installing a long led strip and I noticed that it frequently flickers slightly, it is not a strong nor regular thing, but it is noticeable and annoying. I have measured the voltage of the mains and it shows some fluctuations, it normally stays at around 226v, but often (every few seconds) drops down to 218/219v), and the flickering happens exactly at the same time. I have measured this at the counter and with every appliance off, so it's not related to the house electrical system, but that's how it comes from the supplier.
      I know that the best solution would be to get a voltage...

      Adjustable dc power supply and tcl led strip
      by benareeno
      I wonder if i shorted the whole strip...where to put pos and neg to just light up a single diode...or the entire strip. The strip lit for a second...so maybe i fried it? What say you?


      I have an adjustable dc power supply and was trying around 9 volts.

      I have a pic of a single diode...where to put pos and neg terminals to light it up?

      Pic of middle of strip..is this where i light the entire strip?

      And pic of end...or does this light the entire strip?

      Where to put pos and neg for single diode..multiple diodes and the entire...

      Need help replacing led strip on Iiyama Prolite XUB2390HS monitor
      by mikey5791
      Hi,
      Got this working ips led monitor by the brand of
      Iiyama Prolite XUB2390HS presumably a 23 inch type given to me with suspected bad led backlight. To test it, i unplugged the bad flat ribbon type connector and plugged it a good flat ribbon led connector scrapped from a HP Pavillion 27cw (led strip with 60 led). Good news is the HP led strip lights up but not fully, in between there are about 15 unlit leds.(as picture attached shows).

      Fyi, i had not opened and removed the old bad led strip. My question is whether is it possible to cut some of the extra leds(say...
