YOU did.  How about you look up something in the encyclopedia called PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY because you're not exhibiting an ounce of it.  We're talking about $20 here anyway... TWENTY FRIGGIN' DOLLARS. 

I'll tell you what.  Give me your paypal address.  I will send you $20 just to shut the ---fudgesicle--- up.  Deal?

This topic is rapidly getting out of hand.

I think the problem people have (myself included) with your comments, is that your comments are based on mistakes.  Wiring a 12v DC LED light to 110v AC is a monumental mistake in the world of electricity.  It's akin to forcing a PCI-Express video card into a PCI slot and then blaming the video card manufacturer, or installing a jigsaw blade backwards and blaming Black and Decker.

You didn't have instructions, so instead of emailing Randy (he would have responded within an hour typically), reading the website, or taking 30 seconds on here (yes, 30 seconds) to find a detailed explanation and pictures on how to wire it, you jumped to conclusions.

I don't mean to beat on you, but if you don't know how to do something you should ask.  

At any point along my build if I didn't understand how to do something I used the oceans of resources available here to answer my question.

Of course you don't lose the right to comment, but expect to be blasted when your initial comments are misleading at best, and then even though you admit you screwed up the wiring you still point the finger at his product.  You state there was no wiring diagram...  Fine, I don't know what the instructions for the Novamatrix look like.  But I DO know that it does state over and over it's a 12v device, and if you don't know the difference between 12v and 110v (let alone the difference between AC and DC voltage), then you had no business trying to wire something to power in the first place!  I'm sorry, but you failed to educate yourself initially to even tackle a project like this, so I really think that should be the focus of your "blame"...

Also, you made an assumption as to where something should be spliced into POWER, and assumption is the mother of all F-ups...

Spyridon:

Just my two cents on the product.  I have recently installed it and it looks great.  I acutally ended up throwing out the instructions prior to install so I just went onto their website and found what I needed in about two minutes.

The molex idea is great.  I'll get that on the next order as I ended up adding it myself anyway.

And that was the entirety of your hit and run insult to Randy and his products. Which is missleading in the extreme. Your bad experience was your fault NOT the fault of Randy or the product.

It took Randy pointing out that YOU had connected it to 110V to clarify that. Try and remember what Markrvp said: "Remember, it's better to keep your mouth shut and let people think you are a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt."

The instructions that came with it ALSO say it's a 12V device. If you don't know the difference between 12V DC and 110V AC then - then do us all a favour, and enjoy and electrifying experience while playing your cab  :dizzy:

Nuf Said!
