led tape

First time working with LED tape/dmx decoders. We open in less than two weeks, Q2Q in a week, open 4/12.I’m an amateur lighting designer lighting a musical at a high school and teaching the kids what I can. The set is a series of arches with LED tape outlining/lighting them. I’ve hit a snag...

Found this on Amazon- thought it was cheep RGB LED tape, but when I went to hook it up to DMX decoder for control I realized something was off. Couldn't figure out why it seemed to have an extra lead (should have been 3 color/4 wires- but it has 5), and plugging into a decoder did nothing...

Hi all,I have a DMX decoder for RGB LED tape and I want to wire it up for use on a show. Its clear how the tape gets wired in but I have got a bit confused on how the power supply hooks up. There is an in for the power input clearly marked but then there is also another 'V- V-' terminal that...

Hello all,I have LED tape that is functioning and programable but the blue and white colors are significantly dimmer than the red or green or any color mixing options. I have tried switching decoders and switching the leads on the wiring but still the blue and white are dim. Any suggestions...

We do a lot of LED tape install on our various sets, and we always question the best way to attach the tape to the scenery/prop/etc. We've used runs of velcro, packing tape over it and stapled down, hot glue, double sided tape, and others I'm sure I'm forgetting about. A lot of the time we are...

I'm working on a show where the company has LED tape (RGBW), controlled via remote. I believe it is or is similar to Illume Lighting 196 in. Color Changing RGB Kit with Plug In Driver and Color Changing Remote As I want to control said LED tape from the light board I'm trying to figure out the...

Without getting into the quantum physics of why LED's are (but aren't really) dimmable, what are my options for dimming about 30' of LED tape? Plugging a power supply into a D-20 is preposterous, right? Do I need a DMX driver for the tape string? Help! Product links would be greatly appreciated.

Hello all!So I'm working on controling 24v RGBA LED tape with the qolorflex Neo dimmers. I'm running two 12 volt batteries in series to it, my show ID matches my show baby, I'm addressed properly, my Dimming curve is that of LED's, AND my board patch is right. When I power up my qolorflex, my...

Every month, my Church puts on large scale events, each month themed differently. This challenges me to not always have the same lighting design as the month before it. My first idea is to create a box with LED tape inside and have it powered through a driver so I can control it from my console...

Hi, I'm trying to find high output RGB LED Strip. I will use that from back of white soft plexiglass. Do you have any recommendation?Thanks...

Hi all,I have a very low-end LED controller with Cat5 ports that I am trying to run directly into an ETC Ion. I can't seem to make the light board see the controller, although the controller claims it can go directly into any DMX control system. I have tried all of the deep settings in the...
