LEDs are semiconductors. They do not have moving parts and no filament, as in a conventional bulb.

The light output provided by the LEDs is good compared to the electrical energy they consume.

Under normal conditions, LEDs are long lasting up to 100,000 hours, which corresponds to more than ten years of use.

However, it is not a real service life than for the smallest LED components. Today, the LED is increasingly required to have higher power and other features, so optimal life expectancy is far from realistic.

LeDs lose their light output as they get older, so it’s a good idea to avoid unnecessary use despite moderate power consumption.

The LEDs do not heat up much compared to the incandescent lamp, so no safety distances are required for flammable materials.

However, it should be noted that the maximum LED lights are already tens of watts of power, care must be taken to ensure that cooling works.

High-performance strips shall be mounted on an aluminium strip or profile. Poorly glued tape or bonding to poorly heat-conducting material, such as wood or cardboard, leads to rapid damage to the tape.

LEDs do not like hot, use only LED products in the sauna, which are specially recommended for installation in the sauna and can be easily installed for maintenance.

The operating voltage of the LEDs is low, the only mains voltage is the power supply, which converts the 230 V mains voltage into a non-hazardous DC voltage.

The LED cables may be installed legally by anyone, provided that the ac adapter is installed in an appropriate location according to the requirements.

LEDs are sensitive to incorrect voltages, use only the power supplies supplied in the kits or the maximum voltages specified in the instructions.

When installing loose leds, the use of the correct size of front resistors or the power limitation electronics must be taken into account.

The warranty does not cover components damaged by incorrect operating voltage or connected in violation of the connection instructions.

The most common damage to conventional ø 5 and 3 mm LEDs is mechanical: the legs of the LED should not be bent right from the root of the glass.

When soldering, use only soldering equipment suitable for electronic work, as excess heat will easily destroy the LED even before it is switched on.
Special care should be taken when soldering power LEDs, excess heat can easily damage the LED. The LED chip at the centre of the power leds is mechanically sensitive to damage, store the power LEDs carefully packed and avoid touching the centre with your fingers or any object.
