    Interesting stuff, except for that awful busbar wire that's not copper…

    Not sure if it was said. But up your camera's brightness and or sensitivity. So it is brighter, and it will eliminate the flickering.

    This shit shouldn’t even have the word NEON associated with it. It contains no neon or argon gas at all and has ruined the neon sign trade. They are led lights. That’s it. Not led neon lights

    You can always get rid of apple products and buy something actually worth the price, instead of supporting backwarded apple.
    By the way they are falling right now, and the ground hit will be really painful :))))))

    Thank you so much for this video. I have been trying to figure out how these are manufactured. I am trying to mimick the new Ford F-150 truck tail light in my own vehicle.

    Or you could do a tiny bit of research and get Filmic Pro or MoviePro and you have control over the shutter speed and flick is gone. Or use a proper camera. Rolls eyes.

    For the electronically-challenged here (i.e, Me) , Could someone tell me how this is running directly off Mains voltage?
    Does the Rectifier lump on the cable also transform the voltage down, Or do the resistors on the LED strip drop the voltage to a safe level?

    Great channel. I just discovered it recently. I used to do electronic stuff 40 years ago. Things are much different now. That light looks something like El Wire, but much bigger. Did you ever take El Wire to bits to see how it works? I am still going through your videos, there is a lot to catch up on, but I am watching a lot of them every day.
