LED TUBE LIGHT (AC)
Intro: LED TUBE LIGHT (AC)
INTRO.
My friend Justin, wanted my help to make a LED Tube Light, so this is the result for all of you to see.
The tube light is a row of LED's which runs on 110 or 220 volts AC, just like your ordinary Fluorescent Tube Light.

STEP 1: STEP-1
List of parts required.
100 pieces or more of Very Bright White LED's of 5mm size.
1-or more Non Polarized Capacitor .33uF to .47uF rated 250v to 300 volts for ----110v AC
1-or more Non Polarized Capacitor .22 uF rated 400 volts -for 220 volts for AC
1 or more Resistance of 1k -1 watt for ----110v AC
1 or more Resistance of 1k - 1/2 watt for ----220v AC
2 inches width and 4 feet long PVC concealed wiring rigid batten.
On off Switch, wire, wall plug, solder etc.

2 inches width and 4 feet long PVC concealed wiring rigid batten.
On off Switch, wire, wall plug, solder etc.
STEP 2: STEP-2
In this Step take a 2 inches width and 4 feet long PVC concealed wiring batten.
Fix two rows of 15+15 LED's at a gap of 1 inch.
This 30 LED make one segment.
Fix 3 SEGMENTS of 90 LED's as shown in the Photographs.
Follow the Circuit Diagram in detail.
The gap between the LED's should be 1 inch so as to cover the 4 feet of PVC batten.
The 3 segments should be connected in parallel to the house AC outlet. (110 volts)
Put an on-off switch before connecting to the house outlet.
Your Tube light is ready.
Switch it on and enjoy the soft light.

This circuit is for them who have 220 volts AC as their house supply.
I added this step for them.

through each LED?
The first row and second row, running in line with each
other and then the top to the bottom also be further connected. So runs the +
and - together.

means, if I switch off the tube light, it should slowly gets dimmed (1 or 2 minutes) and switched off.

Sir, I cannot understand how this circuit is working without a d.c. current .

What do you mean by '2 inches width and 4 feet long PVC concealed wiring rigid batten.'
I'm not sure what this is

I have a question. Why two LED's are connected back to back? (and such 15 pairs in series) If we connect 15 LDE's in series (all +ves in 1 direction) & another 15 LED's in series (all -ves in same direction) & and then connect these two rows in parallel, will it work?
Thanks.

YES....... it will work but the flicker will be more......

Hello sir,
can I bother you to help me make a circuit of 20 LED's 5630 which runs on AC 220V?
Thank you in advance
Dipankar 8 years ago
What is 5630? Please mention the size of the LED in mm. like 5mm,10mm.

What mm LED's you want to use?
