Building your own LED tube can be a cost effective solution of lighting the home and you can do it yourself with the right tools and instruction. You need an understanding of electronics to successfully build your own LED tube. You can use an LED tube to replace the fluorescent lighting in your home.
Instructions
1.Cut your PVC pipe in half along its length.
2.Drill holes across the entire length of the PVC pipe at equal intervals. Make the holes large enough to house the LED lights.
3.Place all of the LED lights into the holes and firmly affix them. Make sure the polarity of the LED all have the same orientation. Now cut all of your LED leads so that they touch one another as this is required to create the requisite lighting effect.
4.Solder three separate series of 50 LED lights by soldering their joints. Each series of LED light bulbs must have the given resistor of 470 ohms. Now you must join your three series of LED lights together in a parallel fashion by connecting their positive and negative leads together.
5.Join the four diodes together to create a bridge configuration rectifier and then connect the right points to the LED lights. Now plug it in to test that it is working as desired.
