Led Strip Lighting

Featured Replies

I want to purchase some LED Strip lighting. I have searched thoroughly and cannot find an answer. I know I can import them, but that is problematic.

Thank you for your answers

Not sure what you are after. The battery operated three led press on/off units are for sale at Lotus/Carefour type stores. But suspect you are talking about an AC powered strip? Have not seen that type of LED yet.

They are a strip of white LED's maybe a meter long, they run on a lower voltage, and the light they give is excellent - very white. They also use considerably less power than other lighting sources (except natural of course) and therefore make themselves a good candidate for conversion of my tee-ruk's home to partial solar.

google for the thai web site

LED strip lighting is available at any Independent Philips Lighting dealer. I bought the LED Strip BLUE 0.8 W 50-60Hz 1CT/20 ordering code: 550207 05 upc code 8727900550207

from a Philips Independent Dealer in Korat down the street from The Mall heading towards Buriram. I've seen the same all in one kit which has 4 LED strips, 1 main adaptor, one color controller, all the hardware at other Philips dealers. I did NOT check to see other colors of lighting, but a motivated Philips dealer can look up this item or you can call the office in Philips office Bangkok. I've seen other "no name" LED lighting with questionable controllers in most every lighting store. Philips also sells in Thailand LED bulbs which fit into "normal" sockets. Those LED bulbs are not real bright. Thailand also sells T5 lighting fixtures which use very little electricity such as the:

Philips "Easy For Life" TCH065 1X21W No need to buy a ballast or starter with that very inexpensive, but very bright model T5 fixture. That model is widely available in Thailand, even at most all Modern Trade stores such as Tesco or Big C, often on a Buy 1 get 1 free promotion.

Thank you very much. Great reply, I am in Burriram at the moment, so on the way back, I will look at the Philips dealer in Korat, as its only a short diversion.

I have looked around the stores in Pattaya... Big C, Carefour, Tescos,Homepro and they dont seem to have any LED strip lighting for sale.... they do have some LED torches/lanterns wich run on batteries...

they also have some Philips "Easy For Life" stuff but this looks and is priced just like a normal flourescent bulb are they in fact LED cleverly disguised ???

The Philips Easy for Life model I posted is a T5 fluorescent light, NOT LED. T5 does not use much electricity and is a low cost light suitable for many applications.

Thanks for the clarification. :)

Hello

I would not use this shop they are absolutely overpriced.

Ifyou have time go to Chinatown there is a shop named Kingstar Stage Light, They have a lot of Products. Ledbangkok seems for me that they also buy from Chinatown.(Not sure but the products are the same, But far more expensive)

There is a dedicated electrical shop next to the bus station @ Pattaya Nua. Heading towards Suk, on the left hand side. Got many catalogs, and indeed deals with phillips.

What if you already have strip lighting with halogens? Does anyone make a replacement LED that runs on 40 volts or whatever old fashioned strip lights run on? TIA

Correction. Should read "track lighting"

I know it exists because I saw some at Seacon Square after the latest remodelling.

Unsure of the voltage.

Hi, here is a link for led strip lighting, http://www.hero-leds...-light-c-8.html where i purchased my led strips. I bought two tapes, one power supply and one dimmer, plus some connectors. The led strips are great and very bright, so far so good.

Seriously when I was in Thailand , I couldn't see any LED Lighting specialty shops but you can order it online. I used to order some flexible LED strip , they are so slim and it fits anywhere

You have to know where to look, but they are definitely out there. Several are listed in this post, many others are not. I've seen them at the local HomePro/Mart...as well as at the smaller shops on Thepprasit here in Pattaya. Lots of them in Bangkok.

I think a big one is near the flyover on Suk. On the same side as Index (a bit north) and almost across from Boonthavorn. They just revamped their store and looks like they have lots of good stuff.

There are several small elcetric shops that carry them on Theprasit.

Typically small selection ....

Also, there is a large LED lighting place on sukumvit, I believe it is

between Central and North Pattaya roads, it's on the east side of

sukhumvit, large place, large display, can't miss it ...

Good Luck,

rudi
