Haha , yes I'm aware it doesn't look the best. I have taken samples from a few different sources. All are similar quality and this one "felt" the best. 5 metres is what I was thinking. What would be the answer if the piece was to run over 5metres?

This is the 12v power supply that came with the sample I bought.

I have bought a sample size of a few different colour led neons and there is no information as such on them. This is the LEDs themselves when taken out of the silicone housing. There is approx 1cm between each set of copper pads. I was under the impression that the amps would be around 2...

Thanks, I've actually watched his videos as part of my research. I've got some flux and it makes the soldering so much easier. I looked at some of the soldering stations and newer digital models but in the end I just went for a good old fashioned antex soldering iron. I'm a plater tradesman...

Sorry your quite right. The 18awg( yes, American, it's just what Amazon sent me) is from the 12v female jacks I have just bought. Just been playing with it there and it is indeed very thick. The stuff I already have is much thinner than that, there is no markings on it but it is...

This is the LEDs I'm working with.

Here is the type of leds inside the neon. Here's a cheeky little one I've just made aswell. At the moment I have some 18awg stranded wire that came with the LEDs. It's quite thin and not ideal. I have bought a pack of female 12 v jack leads to connect to my 12v power pack. Moving forward i...

I'lle get a picture later and show what the LED strips look like. The lengths I'm cutting vary massively depending on what sign I'm doing. Not 100% sure what the maximum length of led strip is that I can have coming from 1 X 12v power pack

Nice, might do this. It can be a bit of a struggle with only 2 hands. I generally use soldering flux. I find the solder takes to the job so much better.

I'm making some of those led style neon lights for home that seem to be in every bar nowadays. I have some 5 metre lengths of the silicone LEDs. I'm going to solder some wires on to the ends of a 12v female jack connector which will fit into my 12v power pack. I think the Amps are around 2a...
