Re: Best glue?
Epoxy would be my first choice for that. That is probably what the original black glue is. If not epoxy, my 2nd choice would be a silicone/RTV type glue. I have never found the cyanoacrylate "super-glues" to be reliable in electronics repair, except in certain specific situations. Not to mention their poor shelf. Once opened, you might as well trow a tube of super glue away if you don't use it up quickly.
Just about any of these would be fine. I really like J-B Weld products from this list.
Epoxies available at Wal-MartLast edited by randtek; 11-05-2016, 06:57 AM.Comment

Re: Best glue?
i would NOT use cyanocrylate or epoxy around anything that gets hot - they do bad things!
look on ebay for thermal glue, it sets like rubber and is sold for holding heatsinks onto chips - it wont be effected by the heat from the led.Comment

Re: Best glue?
The LEDs in a TV do not generate enough heat to affect epoxy performance, except for the very large and extremely powerful LEDs used to drive DLP type TVs. I used to repair the LED backlight assemblies in Sharp TVs, even 70 inch and above. I was part of a team that developed the repair process for their panels. The LEDs never get that hot.Comment

by edugimenoHi 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... -
by smortSoooo, I found someone giving away their 70" Vizio TV because it wouldn't turn on. Hoping it would be just some bad caps, I snapped it up. No dice. No bulging caps. TV would start consuming about 7W immediately after plugging it in, but no response from the remote or power button. Thermal showed the main chip on the mobo getting warm and nothing else. Power supply appeared to deliver stable 12V to the mainboard.
I ordered a replacement mobo(actually both mobo and PSU just to be sure) and popped it in. Picture! Sound! Endorphins! Then I noticed three long dark strips. Hmmm, had... -
by adelageHi, 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... -
by benareenoI 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... -
by mitsu2kI know many folks on this forum warn against conductive glue and suggest removing it immediately upon site. I'm here to vouch and say these people know what they are talking about. To be more accurate, the glue isn't intended to be and doesn't actually start out conductive. It gets conductive as it is heated by components that get hot. The glue starts out to be a light tan color but as it is exposed to heat, it gets darker and darker until it is a dark brown. I have found that it becomes conductive at the point that it reaches a light brown color on darker.
Here is an experience I... - Loading...
