3:57 don't worry, you're not alone, I bought 3 of these hoping to get it installed immediatelly when I get home only to find out I am short of many things.

Thanks for the video- Ikea really dropped the ball on their LED lighting- their systems are hard to understand and even in store their is no information to make the whole system work.

I can see how people would be confused if they come straight to lighting and pick them up but these are part of the kitchen system. The staff will plan your kitchen out and tell you what to buy. I’d suggest anyone doing these lights go talk to the kitchen staff.

“freeking thank you very much” 😂😂 I just bought these and also didn’t realize it didn’t come with wires

Their website says its warm white 2700 kelvin - that sure looks like 'cool white' to me which is not going to be flattering. Maybe it is just the camera showing it as very very white.

hey there! I have a question and maybe you are able to help me! I managed to connect two Mittled bars with these red JST-RCY connectors you are using in the video. (I could not use the propprietary Ikea connector, because I needed to install the bars in a 90° angle) Everything seems to work now, but: when I try to add a third bar to the system, using the Ikea-connector, the light starts blinking and then the whole thing crashes (= lights out). I'm wondering if this may have something to do with the voltage or with the type of the wire I am using (22 AWG), but I don't know. Any ideas?

RMF (read the manual first) - the cable is not included as only one is needed for the entire set of lamps, if you install several of them., max 10. If it would be included with every lamp trash collector (like you with the leftovers of the other lamp) would have more trash to collect.

Just dealing with this same thing. I ordered a Silverglans light online for $17. Great deal! Website didn't show it needed anything else. Power supply and controler was $40 so my cheap $17 light became a not so cheap $57 ight. Was pondering cutting the connector off and wiring it to a 12v supply I have for DIY Halloween lighting but need to check required voltage / ma first.

Do you know if it's possible to cut these down to a custom length? The extrusion should be easy, but not sure about the LED's if that would cause a problem

Can the LED strip be cut to a shorter length to make a custom length light?

Do you know if we attach it to a regular wall junction dimmer how to have it dim through different brightness levels? Currently it is only turning on or off.

Great video! So I’m trying to figure out which side of that connector is + If I look at the mittled from the end with the ikea label on the right side and the led facing up, which side of the connector is + ?

same. they cheated me when I found out the power cord is not included

what size is the wire you are using?

Awesome video man. What are the red connectors and crimps?

People amaze me they say O look free parts, free fixings. No you have paid for it all, nothing is free, but the video was good.

Bought 7 of the 80cm mittleds yesterday with two 30w drivers (60w total), 1x fornimma (power cable from driver to outlet) and the vagdal (mittled to driver). They say you can daisy chain up to 10 mittleds together.. I presume with the one vagdal but it seemed to overload the drivers (flashing lights) no matter what configuration I had. Ended up having to separate the 7 mittleds into two groups, each to their own driver and outlet. Anyone else had a similar project and had the same result? Instructions are quite confusing, and I can’t find anything online that says my config could/couldn’t work. My only guess is, and I’m no electrician, that even though I had two drivers interconnected, each one still only outputs up to 30w. With the single vagdal connecting all 7 mittleds, the drivers don’t evenly supply the 60w of needed power?

This goes straight to save for me. But damn those things are 30-45 EUR gere in Europe 😂😂😂 Wtf?!

What size of wire will work for this?

Film o tym jak sobie skomplikować życie oszczędzając kilka euro. To się zakłada w 20 minut i zapominamy o temacie. To jak instrukcja jak wymienić oponę łyżką do zupy.

It makes sense to not include the cable as most people will run more than 1 and people require different lengths of the cable. People would end up with a lot of cable in lengths they don't need. Guess who would pay for that? Who would be cheated then? :)

Those smd LEDs are more brighter than normal one's we can easily identify the color of hah

I like your accent, where are you from?

Why doesn´t FL8-24W work?

From where is coming power!
