Caryl Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 I understand you are mad but you should have got some sort of clue when you were not getting answers in the first place. To then throw good money after bad just made it worse. Lay a complaint with Trademe and/or contact the police yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#!CrunchBang Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 I was going to use the same guy, but because it had to have a transformer added it ended being more expensive than similar things off ebay I didn't buy from him, glad I didn't, sad that you had to have this happen. ask for a refund and send it back. He's a commercial trader so has to act accordingly under the fairtrade act and consumer guarantees act. Say it's not fit for purpose and return it. Even threaten fair go. and contact trademe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GZ_Loach Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 If people don't email me back i relist my auctions or If I'm buying I don't complete the trade if the seller doesn't communicate with me. Reading the questions/answers you seem to be a little confused (as would most people attempting DIY) and he does clearly say the transformer is extra, LED's are polarity sensitive so if they don't work check you have them wired up the right way - its probably something silly stopping them from going. And also if they are dim its because you might have too many running off one transformer, the more you have joined together the more voltage drop you'l get (i.e not enough power to run them all at once) If you have a 12v battery lying around connect one LED to that and see how they go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#!CrunchBang Posted July 4, 2011 Report Share Posted July 4, 2011 with those lights the number of led's in a strip are required to be a multiple of 3 if you trimmed them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
