Hi, it's 28 AWG pre-solered cable. Available here www.ledsignsandlighting.co.uk/accessories/neon-flex-accessories/28awg-electrical-cable

It depends on how the rest of the letters are wired up. If one letter is wired to the next in a chain then yes, cutting off the last letter should be okay and the sign should still work. For certainty though, send us a wiring diagram and we can check for you - sales@spectronled.co.uk

The letters are joined together and the end piece is connected to the power supply. The sign is quite small and uses less than 3m of neon flex so we can do it this way without seeing a voltage drop and inconsistencies in brightness. If the letters were larger, we would need to connect each on to the driver. You can only use about 2-3m of neon flex in one continuous run before needing to run directly to the driver. Hopefully this makes sense, but feel free to contact us for more info.

Yes that's great thank you. I did wonder if the brightness would drop off over a certain length. Brilliant, thank you for replying so promptly 👍

Hi! For letters using more than 3m of neon, we connect directly to the power supply to avoid voltage drop and keep the power cable as short as possible, ideally 1m max. Hope that helps!

Thanks for your kind feedback!!

You can find them on our website, www.ledsignsandlighting.co.uk

We used a 5mm acrylic and the channel is around 3 - 3.5mm.

I don’t know why they all never show how the acrylic sheet cutout is done.

We made this font.

Thank you! Glad it's been helpful 😄

Use a scalpel carefully slit open the silicon skin and lift out the PCB to do the soldering, Mitre Bond it back together afterward. We also have the 2 parts system which you may find it easier to do. Hope this help.

Thanks for the kind feedback, Sam. We appreciate that!

Hi! You can purchase from our website, ledsignsandlighting.co.uk. We ship worldwide!

Hi - we use our CNC cutter for the winged neon, which is approximately 7.5mm.

😆

Obrigado!

Hi, it's hard to say without seeing the damage. If the whole sign isn't working, test or replace the power supply. If part of it isn't working, test your connections. If you send some images to sales@spectronled.co.uk we can advise further. Thank you

Hi Dan, part one is showing you how to install the LED neon flex onto a flat back panel with no routered channel. We don't have a video on CNC cutting, sorry!

@@Spectron Thank you for the reply! The thing I need to know the most is, how deep of a channel would I need for the LED neon flex to fit into? I'm looking to get RGB, and then LOTS of colors of Neon Flex, very soon. Do you work with US hobbyists? Is your lighting too expensive for hobbyist sign makers?

@@Spectron I'd actually love to talk to someone on the phone. Do you have a support/sales line i could contact someone?

@@user-ui5os1uj1v No problem! So it depends on the thickness of your acrylic and partly personal preference. We use a 5mm thick acrylic and the channel is 3.5mm deep. You could use a 10mm acrylic with a channel about 7mm. Basically, you want to maintain the integrity of the acrylic and see the top surface of the neon! We do sell to lots of hobbyists worldwide. The shipping to the US from UK is from £28 and the neon is £36 for 5 metres. Feel free to call us on +44161 236 8828 for more info!

Hi, thanks! We made this font in-house 😄

We ship to the US from our website www.ledsignsandlighting.co.uk/index.php?route=common/home

Thank you for your kind comments.

Hi, we use a 5mm thick acrylic with a 3.5mm deep channel. You can use thicker acrylic and a deep channel if you prefer and budget for the sign allows.

@@Spectronis 4mm possible or would you say 5mm minimum? And thanks for the reply!

Hi, it's 5mm clear acrylic. We use a CNC machine with our CNC cutter for winged neon flex. We do a first pass with a standard cutter first, to clear away a majority of the material in the channel, before using our winged cutter. This preserves the winged blades. We generally cut to a depth of 3.5mm when using a 5mm panel. If using a 10mm panel we will cut to a depth of maybe 6mm. Hope that helps!

You can create a scale drawing (we use adobe illustrator), print it and attach it to your panel.

Hi, thanks! If you're in the UK, you could try searching for plastic and acrylic fabrication near you. They should be able to help.

Thanks Sam 😄

Hello David, you can purchase this online here www.ledsignsandlighting.co.uk/leds/led-neon-flex/8mm-freeform or email us at sales@spectronled.co.uk. Thanks!

Hello Ron Moes, We appreciate your candid feedback regarding our neon flex product in our recent CZcams video. Your insights are incredibly valuable to us, as we are always working to enhance our offerings based on customer input. We're glad to hear that you find the colours of our product appealing, particularly in the evening setting. You've made a notable observation about the distinctions between our LED neon flex and traditional neon signs. While our LED neon flex aims to replicate the iconic glow of traditional neon, we understand that it may not capture every nuance of the classic signage. Your perspective sheds light on the unique qualities of traditional neon that are hard to replicate. Addressing your concerns about product quality, we'd like to assure you that we prioritise the use of high-quality materials in our neon flex products. Durability and long-lasting performance are pivotal considerations for us, especially within the professional realm of sign making. This product comes with a 3 year warranty as standard. Your concept of a round LED strip product accompanied by guides and clamps is intriguing and practical. We do offer another product called Acryneon® which more closely resembles glass neon in that it can be fully round. Two pieces of acrylic are milled to shape and embedded with LEDs. Examples and spec can be viewed in our online catalogue here: books.w2060.cn/2023/557/ (from page 13). Its versatility and style range contribute to a diverse set of choices for sign makers and it is generally used in commercial settings. Your emphasis on investing in quality resonates with us, and we're dedicated to providing sign makers with products that are not only visually appealing but also built to withstand the test of time. Should you have any additional suggestions, questions, or comments, we encourage you to reach out to us directly. Your feedback is invaluable as we continue our pursuit of excellence in product development and customer satisfaction. We extend our gratitude for taking the time to express your thoughts and insights. We eagerly anticipate further opportunities to refine our products based on feedback from respected voices such as yours. Best regards, Spectron LED

Hi, our Winged Neon Flex is 12v so any 12v driver or plug in adaptor is fine as long as the watts are matching the total watts you use per metre of neon flex. I would recommend a constant voltage driver to power any neon flex.www.ledsignsandlighting.co.uk/accessories/led-drivers

We use UNIKA's Mitre Bond a two part adhesive with a activator pen that accelerates curing to bond instantly. Can be found here www.ledsignsandlighting.co.uk/accessories/neon-flex-accessories/mitrebond-single

Thanks, Katy!!
