ARMAN DIY 60 cree led build (should i add cyan??)

yeah the dimmable drivers won't work unless everything is wired together! Don't try to power it on without everything connected.

 

thanks, I did try power up test the led on the royal blue, and it didn't light up. End up with 1 royal blue led burn.

 

that;s what your little battery tester is for , but no big deal, you'll be ordering again and can replace it, make sure ya keep the loop connected and don't leave an empty spot.

 

I try the battery tester, but only 1 led light up.

 

shoot a pic, they all should light up, make sure ya have the right wire and touch on the + and - not being used,

 

So both. - and + on the battery tester go on the + led?

 

Well I hope I got the led wiring right. Here what I did.

As you can see in the picture below, is the 1st white LED. As you can see, I had the + to connected later to the power cord. I had the - solder and going out to the 2nd led.



And here the 2nd led, it connect to my + and soldering down.



So I have 1st led are going out - and connected to 2nd led IN at +.

I think I have read the direction correctly.

 

Here are with the battery tester.



As you can see, only 1 led that are being test are light up. Did you say, with the battery tester, all the LEDS that are being connected, should light up?

 

That is wired correctly. They should all be -0+ -0+.

You should be able to use that tester to get 2 of them to light up very dimly, but it is not near powerful enough for all of them in the string.

 

only 1 light up very brightly, the 2nd led not light up at all.

thanks jonjon.
