Hi all. First post and wondering if someone can help.
I have a single colour LED COB that I’m having issues with. The strip is to be controlled by a small Wi-Fi controller unit. Due to the positioning, I removed the connector and now have a positive and negotiable wire. These both show current...
I'm homeowner and moved into a property which has 25 halogen downlights, I'm hoping to get an electrician to replace these with LED ones, what sort of cost am I looking at excluding the materials?
Without needing to enlarge cutouts, I should be able to find something which fits in the existing...
Evening guys!
I have three of these bulbs on a ceiling light, controlled by a dimmer switch installed by an electrician:

Unfortunately there are a number of issues:

Just popped round to a neighbours house, they have several of these in the kitchen that have failed

can anyone suggest a direct replacement 6000k Daylight downlighter, preferably one that has the same plug...
I'm not too sure which LED driver I can use to replace the one in the picture.
It states max 21V, does this mean any thing less than that is ok? It also says DC 24V though, which has confused me.
Would it be a constant current LED driver seeing as though thus one implies the voltage is...
Hi all.
I just wanted to see if anyone has had issues with Fans on the same lighting Cct as LED strip lights. I have a job where the fan mech on the
the next switch down on the same light Cct turns a LED strip on and off when running through the Fan speeds. Its not a switched active and the...
Hi, I have replaced some under cabinet kitchen tube lamps with LED ones. I followed the same layout and just replaced the lights. Each light (4 in total) is wired to its own fuse box and operated by the kitchen light switch on the wall. As well as each light being connected to a fuse box...
Is there an obvious reason why I can't just fit a plug onto my LED soffit downlights, fitted with a 5amp fuse and plug it into a socket rather than install a 5amp fsu? I'm fine with the plug being permanently plugged in as the socket gets no use anyhow. TIA
Hi, hopefully this is a quick one, in my new house I inherited a bathroom mirror with 4 small bulbs in it. This is hard wired to the main lightswitch.
When I first turned it on with new LED Bulbs I found that they were flickering. I took the mirror off the wall to see how they were wired. It...
Hello gents
I'm just after some clarification, I have a kitchen light fitting that uses a 2D 28W compact fluoresent lamp that I'd like to convert to a LED 2D lamp that I've bought because I thought it would work with the existing control gear.
I realise now that I have a magnetic rather...
Hi Everyone
I need a little advice please. I have bought a Coast Outdoor Led Bulkhead & PIR which states on the instructions that it can be fitted vertically and horizontally. It was fitted by the electrician horizontally, but unfortunately it appears that the PIR is looking directly down...
In the bathroom we have a panel above the wash basin with 3 x 12v Halogen downlighters powered through a single transformer.
I am looking to replace the halogens with LED equivalents with a 12v LED driver.
I have removed the bezel and there is a very thin black plastic ring but I can see no...
Hi
Simple question I think - is there a specific cable requirement for connecting up 240v 6w LED downlights in a daisy chain extending the current lighting circuit? Probably going to have 6-12 lights running off 1 switch. Aware needs to be 3 core with earth to all lights - more the rating of...
Hello everyone,
I recently changed a 3-way normal switch to a smart one (Kasa HS210). Both are not dimmable. The LED light started flickering after that. The problem remained even after I replaced the old switch back. I have tried tightening all the connections and wire nuts.
These are the...
Hi everyone
I am going to install LED lightstrips in the garden which would be on the SELV and obviously it needs to be installed using stepping down transformer however the lights needs to be on wireless switch technology which would require another transformer to feed the stepdown...

I drunkenly bought a 4ft LED light bar on ebay. It supposedly lights up in different colours.
Now that it has arrived, I have no idea how I am supposed to connect it - and I suspect it may be intended for commercial use.
I don't really know what I ultimately intend to do with it - but now that...
