Removing the control box from a LED rope light.

[Lee R]

Hi All and thank you for reading and any advice offered.

I purchsed some rope lights from Premier (Cat no LI062478W 5m LED 230v) and need some idea of how to remove the control box.

It is an 8 function box that wont memorise what setting you left it on after turning it off which makes it very time consuming to have to reset it everytime its switched back on.

So i want to cut off the control box and hard wire it straight to the 3amp plug, my problem is-----

The box input has 2 wires. live and neutral (Brown and blue) from plug.

The box to rope light has 3 wires (Brown, Blue and aqua)

How do i wire them into a pulg for constant shine (no flashing etc)

I appreciate you probably cant tell me how to do it for health and safety reasons etc but if you could word it as a 'suggestion' or its 'been known' with no taking responsability etc it would be

greatly appreciated. I take FULL responsibility for any change to the standard item mentioned i may do.

Thanks again,

L Richards.

Don't as the rope lights may not be 230v and you connecting directly to the mains may cause them to explode.

Like this bad day explode bad day explode bad day explode bad day explode bad day explode bad day explode bad day explode
