TapeLights Showing at Cal Expo RV Show

Tomorrow we will be showing our LED wares at the Cal Expo RV Show in Sacramento, CA. It is not a large show, but there are lots of RV choices out in the parking lot for people to look over. There are some nice booths in the indoor market, such as ours where we show the different LED lamps and lightstrips available from LightBlasters.

Our latest product addition is the TapeLight, a flexible 3/8" wide, adhesive-back tape with three LEDs every 5 centimeters. The TapeLight runs at a nominal 12-volts, what you find in most RVs and Boats. Each HighBright-1 LED produces about 7 lumens, so you have about 120 lumens in a 60 cm strip (about one foot).

TapeLights come in a variety of colors, including cool white, warm white, red, blue, and green. A special version can be ordered that will change colors between red, blue, and green upon command from a controller (sold separately).

You can string together 65 feet of TapeLight before you reach a current draw of 3 amps, the point at which you might begin to worry about voltage drop affecting the brightness of LEDs at the end of the string. TapeLights come in 5-meter reels but can be cut at any 5-centimeter segment mark. They can be soldered together to achieve the required lengths.

If you are interested in purchasing these new TapeLights, contact www.prudentrver.com. The cost is $1 per LED in small quantities.
