pc Power Supply to power 12 volt Outdoor Led lights?
I have a parts pc that I'm not using. I recently was given some low Voltage Outdoor l.e.d. lights. From what i've read the lights need a transformer to power them. With these lights being l.e.d.s, the wattage of the bulbs is only 0.375 each x 8 lights for a total wattage requirement of 3 watts. They are also 12 volt. The power supply in the old pc says 12 volt @13 amps. Will this work? or will the amperage be too much? The wiring will be roughly 50 feet long and 14-16 gauge strand copper.
First, PC are not 12v power supplies. Second, your power supply should have the capability to produce your required current power at no more than 80% of total supply capacity. A circuit will not draw more current then what it needs. LEDs are simply Light Emitting Diodes. Diodes forward bias is .6v generally. The wattage is the amount of heat dissipated (or light in this case) the diodes will generate. You want to know what the power requirements are for a 12vdc power supply to produce 4W. Remember, we are using 4W so that we do not approach the power supply's max output by more than 80%.
I = P/E Ohm's law ( I = current, P = watts, E = voltage )
I = 4w/12v
I = .33 amps
Now we solved for current requirements, you know that a 12 volt power supply that will supply a sufficient current of .5amps will be adequate and you meet the max capacity by 66%
Wire lenght should not be included in this calculation. Wire resistance is pratically nill.
Transformers are AC (alternating current) which uses volt-amperes (VA) as a power rating. These are step down transformers (usually from 120vac to 12 - 24vac with no bridge rectifier). This is not the currect application. If you use a plug in power supply that has a 12v output @ 1A, this will surfice. These are plentiful and can be obtain anywere.

Rope Lights
Light Up Your Life With Rope Lighting
Recent innovations in lighting fixtures have opened up all kinds of creativity in decorating ideas. Switch out some of your traditional Light Fixtures or just add new rope lighting to your projects.
Rope lighting is a string of Led Lights that are extremely flexible allowing you to use them in a straight line or they can be curved all the way into a U shape if desired. They are available in standard 120V as well as 12 V and 24 V, which do require a converter box attachment. Depending on the application you plan to use, it will be a good idea to get the advice of an electrical contractor, especially since the 120 V lights can be both used with a standard cord and plugged in or you can actually direct wire them to a Light Switch. The ones using a converter box are more do-it-yourself friendly.
There are several installation methods, from metal channels that the lights can fit into, to plastic clips that are attached, then snapping the light onto the groove in the hook. Then you would plug the cord into your light socket. These lights are available in clear, Warm White, various colors, as well as multi-color lights on one string.
Some of these light strings can actually be cut into specified marked lengths, which vary by manufacturer, and you can connect different lengths (but not voltages) together to make unusual configurations for your lighting. This is something that you can not do with traditional lighting. Talk about economical; they only uses 6 watts per foot of power, quite a savings over traditional lighting.
Kitchens often do not have enough lighting and these would be great to install on the underside of kitchen cabinets. They could be placed inside the metal channels or by using the plastic clips. By direct wiring to a wall switch with an appropriate dimmer switch, these little lights could function as nightlights also, so you wouldn't have to enter a dark kitchen.
Another great use for these lights would be on the underside of a handrail of a stairway on a two-story house. They would provide enough extra lighting in the evening without having to turn on the overhead light to see where you are going.
Think of all the ways you can use this type of lighting outside, either on a regular basis or especially during the Christmas holiday season. These lights can be used indoors as well as outdoors because of the waterproof plastic tubing the LED lights are inside of. Light a pathway; accent the edges of the driveway and flowerbeds. Create ambiance lighting for those outdoor parties in the summer by stringing some on the patio.
At Christmas, use colors of your choice and decorate around the roof line of the house, the edge of the porch roof, trees, and the bushes. Since accessories are available to create either flashing or chasing lights, the possibilities are only limited by your imagination.
Rope lighting can be purchased many places, such as hardware stores, retail stores and lawn and garden centers.

How can I fix my Rope Lights to my Tile Roof.?
Just wondering if anyone knows how to fix rope lights to a tile roof. Is there some sort of clip i can buy
Here is a link with many types of plastic clips to hang Christmas Lights with...this prevents you from having to use any type of nails,drilling through any tiles etcetera...Even though this is a link to order from online these are quite common and can be found at just about any decent sized department store, thus preventing having to return clips that may not work properly..buy them locally for then if they by accident were not the proper type of clips, you can exhange them for the right ones without having to pay shipping and handling and any other fees that would not make them economical...but thislink is to show you that , yes, there are many types of clips that WILL work for what you need..

Introducing a New Flavor of Energy-Efficient Light Bulbs
The pros and cons of energy-efficient light bulbs have been much debated over the last decade. The main focus of the discussion has been CFL light bulbs. Introduced in the '80s, these electricity sippers have been greatly improved over the years. CFL light bulbs are enthusiastically endorsed by the Energy Star program and are the most popular green light bulbs among consumers, businesses and even public institutions looking to reduce lighting costs and shrink their carbon footprint.
Among the various energy-efficient light bulbs, CFL light bulbs have notable drawbacks when compared to traditional incandescent bulbs, their higher purchase price, slower start-up time and inferior dimmability among them. CFLs also contain a small amount of mercury and must be recycled at the end of their life. On the plus side, these energy-efficient light bulbs pay for themselves in energy savings quickly when used for three or more hours per day. The best CFL light bulbs also cast a flattering light, much better than when they were first offered. CFLs are a solid choice for consumers seeking more eco-friendly lighting, but there's a new option to consider.
A Legislative and Regulatory Foundation for Energy Efficiency: More than Just CFL Light Bulbs
Legislation passed by the U.S. government in 2007 mandates efficiency gains for commonly-used light bulbs by January 2014. Starting in 2012 with higher wattages, light bulbs must be about 30% more energy efficient than current standards require. While CFL light bulbs meet this challenge, the Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) doesn't favor any specific technology. The broad standards have created opportunities for leading lighting manufacturers, such as Philips and General Electric, that are committed to developing innovative energy-efficient light bulbs which address a wider range of lighting applications than CFL light bulbs alone.
While the 2007 EISA covered general use bulbs, new rules for the improved energy efficiency of so-called PAR (Parabolic Aluminized Reflector) lamps (commonly used in residential and commercial downlighting applications) were issued in June by the U.S. Secretary of Energy Stephen Chu. These regulations are expected to go into effect in the second half of 2012. Consumers will see some exciting changes as manufacturers strive to increase the efficiency of these green light bulbs to meet the new standards. For lower wattage lamps, i.e. those of less than 100 watts, the 2012 standards will drive efficiency up by 24% to 87% depending on bulb diameter, wattage and voltage. This mandate is also technologically neutral, leaving manufacturers free to unleash their ingenuity in designing the energy-efficient light bulbs they wish to produce and make available to the U.S. market.
High-Efficiency Halogen Lamps - A Clear Choice in Green Light Bulbs
Lamp manufacturers have been aware of consumer dissatisfaction with CFL light bulbs and have actively participated in recent legislative and regulatory processes aimed at arresting the pace of climate change due to lighting-related greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, proactive lighting companies have been investing resources in R&D to ensure compliance with forthcoming laws and regulations while giving individual and business consumers a wider choice of energy-efficient light bulbs.
As a result, right now, almost three years ahead of schedule, screw-in high efficiency halogen lamps are on the market. These energy-efficient light bulbs have several advantages over CFL light bulbs:
- Instant-on technology
- Sparkling white light: not blue, not butterscotch, just crisp and clear
- Superior dimmability (and because they're in the incandescent family, extended lifespan when dimmed)
- Compatible with motion control sensors
- Stable light output: will fire regardless of ambient temperature
- Suitable for use in fully-enclosed fixtures
- 100% Mercury-free
What makes these energy-efficient light bulbs greener than the traditional bulbs being phased out?
- High-efficiency halogens use less electricity to produce the same amount of light.
Example 1: Philips offers a 70 watt general-purpose bulb, which is equivalent to a 100 watt standard incandescent. That's 30% more energy efficient and nearly 10% more efficient than required by EISA by January 1, 2012.
- High efficiency halogens last longer than traditional incandescent bulbs.
Example 2: GE's 48 watt PAR30 bulb (itself 20% more energy efficient than the applicable DOE 2012 rules for incandescent reflectors) has a 4,200 hour average rated life, 40% longer than the 75 Watt Halogen lamp it is designed to replace.
Extra life translates into more time to realize financial and carbon emissions savings.
In Conclusion
For consumers, business owners and public institutions committed to reducing energy consumption through simple changes in lighting choices, there are energy-efficient light bulbs for every need. Innovative new products are already here with more being introduced all the time.

What causes a light bulb to explode in a thunderstorm?
"Short circuit of sorts. The light bulb must have over heated by a sudden rush of energy causing it to burst. Though the other lights just went out because the burst of energy only needed one main exit to exclude its energy. Thus the light bulb bursting. Well that's what I think". <--- that is my friends sight on why a light bulb explodes we just wanted to know if it was true or if you could give us knowledge on the subject.
You are mostly correct. If there is a surge in electricity then this will over heat the filament in the light bulb and causing it to fail. But causing it to shatter is very rare. It does happen though. As soon as the filament fails then the electricity is turned off because the circuit is broken.
The air pressure answer is incorrect. If that was the case then you could not purchase any light bulbs in the city and then take them up to your cabin at 6,000 feet in the mountains as all the bulbs would break. And your household light bulb is a vacuum, no air inside so the filament will last longer.

The Application of Dimmable LED Spots and Bulbs
Among the issues of Led Lights dimmability is one of the latest challenges still yet to be fully solved. Dimming LEDs is theoretically easy, because analogue dimming, that is the adjustment of current, has long been an option. However, this method only works safely when used with one Led Bulb. Systems of LEDs require a more sophisticated method of dimming. The two basic forms of dimming are the PWM or Pulse-Width-Modulation and the analogue dimming, both of which are switched-mode regulators. These two types are similar in the sense that they both control the time-averaged current through the diode.
Analogue dimming is a very simple way of dimming, it is the adjustment of cycle-by-cycle of the LED current regulated with a potentiometer. The current is adjusted to the LED increasing and decreasing its intensity.
The disadvantage of analogue dimming is that it only works safe as long as we dim a Single Light bulb. Systems of LED lights require a more refined technique. The difficulty of dimming a system of LED lights is that there are many types of LEDs, requiring different methods for dimming. If there is a system of lights we would like to dim, the various LEDs may react diversely to the same amount of current, and as the current is reduced some LEDs can turn off later or sooner than others. Also, analogue dimming largely changes the colour of the light, similarly to when it is used with incandescent lights.
The most frequently used technique of dimming LEDs is Pulse-Width Modulation, which is basically the cutting of the phase at a certain frequency. PWM switches the devices between fully on and fully off at a frequency that cannot be told by the human eye, therefore LED bulbs always run on the forward current recommended. The frequency of switching determines the brightness of light, so the longer the lights are "on" the brighter the light will be. This is the same technique used in incandescent light dimmers as well, except that incandescent lights react to current more slowly, and therefore require a different frequency.
Two types of Pulse-With Modulation signals are used often with dimming light: the leading-edge and the trailing edge techniques. These two are different ways of cutting the phase, and result in separate dimming technologies. The most frequently used dimmers of LEDs use solely the leading-edge technology. Dimmers marked as R or RL are suitable for most dimmable LEDs, since they work with the leading edge technology and do not include electronic transformers. TRIAC drivers, or devices governed by the DMX and digital addressable lighting interface (DALI) protocols and, in the future, may include wireless (RF) as a control option, that is dimmers that turn or slide with a knob, all work with dimmable LEDs.
Alas leading edge technologies controlled with a touch or push button, are often powered by an electric transformer, excluding many dimmable LEDs.
The other type of phase-cutting technique is trailing edge technique, usually used in MOSFET or is not suitable for the majority of dimmable LEDs. One of the latest inventions appearing on the market is the RAIS lamp technology. RAIS lamps offer a higher degree of functionality and seem to work with all types of dimmers available on the market. However RAIS technology is still new, and its long-term effect on LEDs have not been fully tested. If they prove to be trustworthy their application both domestically and commercially, can turn out to be much safer and easier than previous dimmable LED lights'.
In the ever-evolving technologies of LED lights, dimmable LEDs are still to be developed to further compatibility and better performance. Since there is no general rule for what dimmer your LED might be suitable for, always check the technical details with the distributor. Application of LED lights with non-compatible dimmers might ruin the LEDs, and they are, at the moment, not the cheapest solution of lighting.

Instead of the red and white audio cable you should use the optical cable for digital and surround sound, otherwise you get stereo audio only. Hope this will help you out.

Why Flameless Candles Beat Regular Candles
For many years, candles have been used to create a calming and relaxing mood. Over the last few years, flameless candles have become increasingly popular as a replacement for regular candles. Flameless candles look practically identical to regular candles. They even have the same flickering, glowing light of a regular candle. However, flameless candles have several advantages over regular candles. Here are some of the reasons why flameless candles beat regular candles.
Flameless Candles Are Safe.
The best reason to use flameless candles is due to safety. Flameless candles are better than regular candles for the simple fact that there is no flame. With a flameless candle you don't have to worry about setting the house on fire. I'm sure that you've seen or heard news reports of house fires started by candles. These fires could have started because someone simply forgot to blow out the candle. Or maybe a child or a pet knocked over the candle. No matter what the reason, these tragedies don't have to happen. With a flameless candle, you are protected from these accidents because there is no flame.
Flameless Candle Can Come On Automatically.
One of the best features of flameless candles is that some candles come with a timer built-in. The timer is really amazingly simple. Here's how they work. With a flip of a switch, you can turn on your candle. Your candle will stay on for a predetermined amount of time and then turn off by itself. The length of time it stays on may be 4 hours, 6 hours, 8 hours or longer. The fantastic part is that the next day the flameless candle will automatically come on at exactly the same time that you turned it on the day before. So, if you turned it on at 5 PM the first day, it will come on at 5 PM each and every day.
This is great if you like to have candlelight every night before falling asleep, or have the candles on when you come home from work. Also, this is perfect to use if you plan on being away from home. You can set your candles to come on at various times during the day and night so that your home appears to be occupied. The built-in timers are a great option that regular candles can't match.
You Can Put Flameless Candles In Places You Wouldn't Put Regular Candles.
Flameless candles can be put in locations that you would never dare put a regular candle. This is because there is no flame and no danger with flameless candles.
Do you need a little extra light in a nursery or child's room? Need a nightlight, and there's no outlet in the right place? Would you like to put a candle near a curtain, wall, plant, or decoration? Maybe you would like to put a candle in a bookshelf. Do you need light under a cabinet? Maybe on top of a cabinet?
As you can see, the places that you can put a flameless candle are endless. As you think about it, you can see just how useful flameless candles can be and why they've become so popular.
Flameless candles last a long time.
Flameless candles are Battery Operated, so they will last a long time without having to even touch them. The length of time that flameless candles will operate on a set of batteries varies. Usually, it will be between 100 hours and 1,000 hours. Some newer candles extend this time even longer. Most regular candles will burn down to the point that they are unusable after this amount of time.
As you can see there are many advantages to using a flameless candle. A bonus reason why flameless candles are so great is that they are very affordable. Once you get a few, you will realize just how much you love them and how useful they are.
