RE: Re[2]: Ervan LED's again!!



Can I ask a newbie question ?  How do you power these LED ?

I am based in the UK (240v) and am very interested in using 40/50 LEDs to
light a room we are building.  The room will be plasterboarded with about
30mm clearance behind the boarding. I could install any transformers and
driver circuits somewhere in the room and run cables to the LEDs in the
ceiling.

Thanks in advance.

Jeff

How hot do these things get? I was thinking of mounting some under a table
with a glass insert to add some colour. Would they burn wood or melt
plastic?
