LED fairy lights

(1/4) > >>

muddyjames:
I was wondering if they would be ok to put in a confined space? They dont heat up like normal bulbs do. Do they ned moving air around the cable or the such like?

Would like to say what it is for but I cant as it is for something I have designed and in the processes of testing but would like peoples thoughts on led xmas lights as that seems an easy route to go for getting 80 led bulbs on a wire ready wired and the right time of year to buy them! :lol:

cheers

james

if there is a mains drop down transformer/adapter/wall wart involved it probably best not to box that bit especially cheapy ones.

I'd vouch for that. After 5 hours at night the transformer gets really warm. Best to leave it where air can circulate round it

muddyjames:
oh yeah, the transformer bit will be uncovered definately. It will just be the bulb section in a confined space.
