Video | Flexible Strips & Tiger Paw Connectors

Cut and Connect Kits in Ultra Bright, Super Bright, and Ultra Bright. Available in 12 meter or 3 meter lengths

This video explains how to connect flexible strips to our Tiger Paw Connectors. For this project you’re going to need LED flex strips, your connector and a power supply. The video demonstration uses a 3.5-millimeter connector, but Inspired LED also makes them available in 5.5 millimeter. When you’re cutting your flex strip, make sure that you don’t cut through any of the solder. If you cut through the solder, it’s not going to fit into the connector. So go a few LED lights up and cut through the copper colored positive and negative. Next, peel the end of the tape…

Flexible Strips: How To Install LEDs Under Cabinets

We understand it is a little difficult to grasp the idea of how to install LED flexible strips under your cabinets if you’ve never done it before. LED lighting is still a fairly new technology for residential use, making “how-to’s” harder to come by than, say, installing halogens under your cabinets. Do you install it in the front or the back? What size do you order? Why flexible strips? How do I run it across the entire length of my cabinet? In this handy guide, we’ll go over the basics and answer common, yet very helpful, questions! Let’s start at the…

Video | TV Backlight Kit

A TV Backlight from Inspired LED can reduce eye strain by providing bias lighting in the form of easy to install adhesive backed LED Light Strip. Bias lighting serves to moderate or bias the range of motion in the iris muscles in the eye, which limits the size of the pupil. The frequent and sometimes dramatic variation in picture brightness from scene to scene in video programs can cause eyestrain and fatigue in an otherwise dark display environment. Our TV Backlight will provide enough light for your eyes to get their color reference, and you’ll find that pictures seem a…

Video | Overhead Lighting

Normal Bright Flexible LED Strips are the best products to get the ideal amount of lighting in above cabinet lighting, crown lighting, tray ceiling lighting, and any other accent lighting you can think of! I previously installed a switch outlet inside the cabinet. I went ahead and installed one above the cabinet for the overhead lighting as well. All I have to do is plug in my power supply, take my flexible lighting strip, remove the adhesive, plug…
