Led lighting

Abel225 · November 27, 2015

Hi all!

I want to add some led lighting to my case but I can't find any led lighting strips in hungary. Is it possible to hook up a normal 12V led lighting strip to a molex connector? If it's possible is it risky to do that?

Thanks a lot!

as I understand it, that's how most led strips work. it should be ok.

Something like this is a good choice I reckon https://www.nzxt.com/product/detail/101-sleeved-led-kit-case-accessory.html

Just keep in mind that these ones are really bright

For LED strips if they are the single color ones, yes they can be hookup up directly to a 12V source.

I have a write up here on how to do this under Wiring Up LED Strips:
