White LED waterproof light strips.

[DrunkenMistake]

Hey guys, I have a Roll of water proof LED light strips, they have a 3m backing on them so they can stick to wherever it is you want to put them,
They are cuttable every 3 LED's (50mm) and resolderable etc,
I will supply these at cut to size orders, you will need to solder them yourself etc, I will supply details on where to solder them etc, bare in mind you will need a light weight soldering iron as too much heat could possibly damage the internal circuit board.

Price: $2 every 3 LED's/ 50mm (I.E you want 18 LED's - 18 LED's is 6 cuttable sections or 300mm, so that would be $12)

Colour: White

Whats for sale: Flexible LED waterproof white light strips cut to specified length, ready to be wired and soldered up and some simple instructions of where to solder the wires onto.

Shipping: Well this depends on the buyer, I can put them in a parcel post bag with bubble wrap for $4.50 for biff them in an envelope and send via snail mail.

If you are interested let me know, these things are pretty bright and would suit a wide range of stuff, on and off the bike, I have used some as a number plate light and plan on using some as running lights and maybe some minor accent lighting.

Picture supplied is of the roll all lit up.


EDIT:
Sorry for the shit quality but, First picture shows where to solder the wires to, the RGB are markings on the strip, you just have solder across the three points and connect the negative wire to that point, and the Positive is obviously just the positive, but you have to make sure the solder doesnt touch (negative and positive, for obvious reasons)
Second picture shows where to cut, if you wanna buy a big strip and resize to suit your needs, there is a black mark on the actual strip to show you,
After soldering a new connection it is advised you heat shrink it, or add a little hot glue or sealant and heat shrink it, just to ensure that it stays water proof

How do you hook this up to 12V power system (i.e., car / bike)?
Do you have to put a resistor etc or do you just solder it to 2 cables and then splice them cables into ground and 12V?

The strips have built in resistors, all that is required is a positive and negative wire be soldered onto the end of the strip you want to use, and connect them however you want to, Positive to the battery, and Negative to the battery unless its miles away from the battery you can just earth the negative, if your bike is earthed properly it should work,
So..

you just solder it to 2 cables and then splice them cables into ground and 12V

If you decide to use them like accent lights, with or without a switch make sure you add a fuse as close to the positive terminal on the battery as you can
10amp fuse should be more than enough.

Hope this helps.

Are they sticky on the back?

did you even bother reading the first post?

Yes,
I have just put a small strip on my bike and it went through a wash of rain and a spray of mud and its still on and sweet as pie.

Had you noticed you pic looks very much like a Flux Capacitor?

Cool, that was something I was thinking of doing. I will look to see where I can fit them.

Hahaha goes with my power band..


Under the tank for naked bikes if you wanna do accent lights, under the front guard and run the wire up the brake line etc etc,
loads of places.

Ive got the wiring as my bike used to have running lights, that part is easy. Was thinking of accent lights.

All good!

This is the same stuff as the shit they sell on Trademe, im just selling it as a price that will get my money back for what I paid for it and some pocket change,

They sell 15cm lengths on TM for I think $20, I just sold a 30cm piece for $12 haha
