2-LED Light Strip Starter Kit
Carefully remove all parts from the included re-sealable anti-static bag:
Nine 2-light LED strips with adhesive backing
Eleven black connecting cables
Three adapter boards
LEGO® plates for mounting in a LEGO® creation
Depending on the specific kit purchased, there may also be a power supply in the box, or you may
have purchased a kit without a power supply.
DECIDE:
How will you be using the light strips? If you will be
using the adhesive backing to mount the strips, make
sure you have all parts collected and ready before
peeling the adhesive. When using the self-adhesive
backing to mount light strips, try to mount in a perma-
nent configuration (where the light strip won’t be re-
moved and re-attached multiple times). If mounting
in a LEGO® model, mount the light strip to a 1x6 plate
(included) and then move the plate, not the light strip,
if necessary to reposition.
CONNECT:
Connect the strips end-to-end using the included black cables. Be careful when disconnecting
light strips not to pull using the cable (this will damage the cable)—disconnect the light strip by
holding the cable connector firmly and pulling. You can use the included 1x2 black LEGO® plates
to hold slack in connecting cables by winding extra cable around the black plates, then snapping
the black plates onto a ceiling in a building.
When mounting the light strips, mount in such a manner as to remove stress from the connecting
cables at the point they plug into the light strip. This will prevent cables pulling out over time.
