4mm Wheal Elizabeth - Cornish China Clay Branch in P4

[jonte]

The lights are simply stuck to a foamboard backing at the moment. I didn't notice any significant heat gain when in use at the exhibition, which is probably the longest they have been on continuously. They were probably only running at around half of their full power as the ambient hall lighting was pretty good. I'll continue to monitor this in use but so far, no issues.

Hi Jeremy. One of the issues I have discovered with LED lighting strips is they can get very hot (all those internal resistors). How have you mounted the strips?

I’ve just ordered a similar set from Amazon and noted the bullet point: ‘Safe to touch’ - ‘……emits extremely low heat so touchable for kids and cute pets’.

Hope that helps.
