Good quality solder makes ALL the difference. The one that was recommended to me and what I use in this video is widely considered to be the best on the market. It has a flux core which has eliminated the need for me to add flux separately. All solder is not created equally and your experience soldering will more than likely be very different than what is shown in this video if you are using something else. The other thing to mention that I forgot to cover in the video is that a clean tip is very important so make sure to clean often. (links below)

I don't know how many LED soldering videos I've watched, where the person either has the camera across the room, or has their hands over the piece while they're working on it. This is exactly what I wanted to see. Thank you.
Thats because he understands professional video making! Well said, and well done.
Hands down the chillest, easiest and most understandable tutorial I've seen so far on soldering. I learned something about myself while watching and the soldering right after. Thanks you so very much for this Chris!
Lol you are very welcome and thanks so much for watching! I'm glad you liked the video! I appreciate the kinds words as well!
Agreed
Yes this guys good
@@ChrisMaherDIYBest video I’ve seen , I tried the link for the solder gun and it’s no longer in stock . Is there another link you recommend .
Thanks to this tutorial i overcame a frustration soldering LED strips and it enabled me to mass produce a little DIY Simracing gadget.
I'd love a video about what to do when something goes wrong - common problems / solutions - for example, on small LED strips, what to do when the copper pads burn off.
Adding the part about the protective coating at the end really completes the video! I just bought some that has it without realizing. Glad to know it's so simple to remove.
Chris, this was outstanding. Thank you simplifying what all the other soldering videos I’ve watched have made into a convoluted nightmare.
Awesome! I've been doing simple led strips on my custom cabinet projects and have always wanted to branch out into something like this! Your videos are great and invaluable for anyone who might want to play with this, thanks..:)
New to this and was very frustrated trying to solder my LED strips..... watched your tutorial and nailed it the very next try. thanks a ton :)
Thanks to your tutorial, I improved my soldering skills. Good job!
You're the best man..." You can do it" ... This line sure motivated me.. I successfully connected led strips thanks man 🥰🥰
Thank you for this. I need to learn to create some new art and this has me feeling better about trying to solder it all myself
Amazing tutorial! Been a long time since I've soldered anything so this was a great technique video. I was using those little plastic clamps for connecting my strips and they kept causing flickering down the line and when I squeeze the clip I can see it stop and the strips even get brighter so I am hoping this will be the fix!
Excellent how to video. I love how detailed, thorough and concise your explanations were. It always helps to go step by step instead of jumping to the finished product. It's very helpful to someone like me who likes to follow steps in a certain progression in order to make things work. I also enjoyed the close up. I am a visual person so the close ups definitely helped. I will certainly be subscribing to your other videos. Great job and thanks for creating!
Thanks so much for watching and the kind words! Glad you enjoyed the video and glad it was helpful! I'll keep making them! Thanks buddy!
Hands down the best of those tutorials on here. No fluff trash nonsense.
Omg, this video has made me feel so much more confident in doing some soldering with my current project. Thank you so much.
You are very welcome and thank so much for watching! Glad the video was helpful!
Chris I legit used to solder circuits boards for a living. In my expert opinion, this is a great tutorial!
Excellent video. Thanks for posting.
duuuuude this might be exactly what i’ve been looking for including the other light boxes and stuff. love it
Thanks so much for watching and glad you liked the video!! Thanks for taking the time to comment!
Chill. Short helpful. Perfect
Best tutorial I’ve seen yet, always looking for good videos to send to folks when they ask for help and Tin outta Tin on this video😉 You definitely LED us through the processes.
Thanks so much for watching and the kind words! Glad you liked the video and that means a lot! Thanks so much for the support!
By far the best wire soldering video this is so helpful well worth a follow for this
Clean explanation and straight to the point, excellent video!
Such a good video, now I can do the led projects I want to do and tailor it to what I need instead of whatever length and brand the straps come with. Thank you so much man, easily earned sub
Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment! I'm glad you liked the video!
This RUclipsr is great at explaining the topic of "how to solder", I would like to see more on the history and what made it (i.e. soldering) so popular & who came up with this idea 💡 I never understood how soldering worked, but this video made me understand things a little more clearly regarding the technique of soldering and why soldering is used, after watching this great video... Plus, the announcer had a very clear and smooth narration voice! The background music also had a nice, relaxing & good vibe to it!
Thanks so much for watching and for the kind words!! Yeah that would be fun to know! More of the history. But glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for taking the time to comment!
If you really want to understand electronics soldering well, I wholeheartedly recommend this series (about an hour in total, an hour WELL spent!) from Pace Worldwide, a manufacturer of superb soldering equipment. They used to offer soldering training (mostly for the defense electronics industry), which is what these videos were created for. They’re old, but IMHO unparalleled in their clarity and how they not only explain what to do, but why to do it, and what to look for as you go.
ruclips.net/video/vIT4ra6Mo0s/видео.html&pp=iAQB
The series is also available in a few other languages, and there are also further series on repair and rework.
Excellent, simple, well explained video.
You are really getting good at making these videos. Thank you!!
Thanks so much! Appreciate the support buddy!
Chris, I'm wanting to create a wildfire scene at night. Unlike a campfires, the colors are mostly orangy-red and flickering slightly. I have photos of what I'm trying to accomplish. Thanks for sharing your work on the channel!
Explained perfectly .. Show us more!
Thanks for this great tutorial. I'm hoping to try soldering soon when I have some more time for some project ideas.
Your welcome buddy! Its definitely a skill I think is worthwhile learning. I was also able to fix a wire on our car that broke using some solder so its not only for led strips lol!
Omg Thank you. I have been struggling to solder for such a long time. Thank you again.
You are very welcome! Glad you liked the video! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment!
I want to get started with WLED but soldering is still a foreign thing to me. I'm saving this tutorial for later because it's simple, thorough, well-illustrated and well-explained. Thank you so much!
Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment! My biggest advice is to get good solder. That will make all the difference!
Great video thank you
I thought I knew how to solder, but this video showed me so many new tricks. Thank you! Do you have any experience with or examples of scratching through the backing, and soldering wires to the strips from behind? I'm trying to press mine flush against a surface and it'd be way easier if i could pre-place everything then solder it all together 😅
thank you so very much!! you have a calming voice as well.
You are very welcome and thank you for watching! I'm glad you liked the video!
Thank you so Much for a detailed video.
I tried and it worked
So happy
Thanks ❤️
❤❤❤
Great and easy tutorial. thanks.
❤❤❤
Congrats, I came here to learn how to solder, and now I want to make a LED strip project. I am not even mad. lol
Thanks Chris! Another great video!
Your welcome and thanks so much for watching! Appreciate the support buddy!
Man your videos are so awesome thanks so much
close-up of this is a amazing! Thank you
Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment! Appreciate the love and glad you liked the video!
THANK YOU!!! SENSEI 🙇🙇♂🙇♀ ... 😂YOU ROCK BUDDY!
OMG - this project is going to be so much easier and neater now - Thanks Chris. 🍎
Chris, are you left or right handed?
Thanks so much for watching and the kind words! I am right handed! I dont think I stressed it enough in the video though but the solder is what makes all the difference in the world. Good luck!
Very informative video. Thank you Chris.
Thanks so much for watching and glad you liked the video! Appreciate the support!
Thank you. Great tutorial.
Sadly I can't go practice what I just learned. I'm terrible at soldering but feel like I learned enough to get better fast after watching this great tutorial. I am curious about what you use for diffuser on your larger projects like the lights on either side for the TV? 6:47 I know of the aluminum strips with diffuser for smaller stuff like the light under the TV at the same time stamp.
Thank you! Great help
You are very welcome and thanks so much for watching!
You make it look so easy! Great video!
Thanks so much buddy! The solder makes all the difference!
@@ChrisMaherDIY As a subtitute teacher this helps a lot. Only the best for my kids!
BEST TUTORTIAL EVAAAAHHRRR !
Amazing tutorial. Thank you.
The two soldering irons you put in the description ,are good and same quality?
Im ready to order the tools.
Also what are the differences in ESP32 30P and ESP32 38P?
Also what is AWG in the silicon wires?(which AWG do i pick?)
Just gotta look for the right leds now and help with the questions .
Masterpiece! ❤
Thanks, this gave me the courage to try myself
Awesome! Hopefully it went good for your first time! For sure took me a while to get comfortable but now Its pretty simple!
THANKS!!!!!!
Thank you, for the helpful video.
You are very welcome! Thanks so much for watching and glad you enjoyed the video!
I’m looking to add lighting to a small wall mounted display cabinet and I want to use Govee strips because they’ve worked great for me elsewhere but they don’t make strips in the 15-18 inch range I need. I want full customizability so each row is a different color. But I can’t find that from Govee. I’m open to all suggestions! But I want something that’s gonna last and work great.
Great mate! Really helpful
Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment! Glad it was helpful!
Hey Chris, I really like your videos and the tips you give are very helpful. Recently I came across an idea of installing the LED strip behind my desk and take the same strip to attach behind the monitor. Searched for a lot of solutions, got one as to use a T connector but that is impossible to get here in India. So can we solider extra wires in middle of the strip and connect the led strip. Will it work, so is there a different solution for it. It will be great if you help me find a solution for it.
Chris, awesome video on how to solder wires together. I’ve always been afraid of trying soldering but with this tutorial I’m buying all the supplies and giving it a try. Thanks again.
That's awesome!! Hope the experience is a good one for you! I'm sure after a few practice tries you will have perfected the art!
@@ChrisMaherDIY lol. I had a Nanoleaf strip (with six pins) and I tried this today. The reason I said I “had” is because 6 pins are to close together and I messed it up bad. I did the wires really good.
Any possibility you could make a video on how to install LEDs in a work van with a dimmer?
How to tap into battery for power, what are the best materials to use, style options, etc.
There is little to no videos out there at your quality. Im sure it’d be a hit with all the trades men out there using ford transit vans or even work trailers.
Your channel is incredible man! Thankyou
great video and easy to follow, just having trouble myself when going to attach the wires to the already tinned led strip, the copper pads come off from the led strip with the wire ATTACHED, not sure if im leaving my iron on too long. Can i still solder the wire onto the strip with no top copper pad, having trouble having my solder stick to the strip with no pad, would flux help me with this problem thanks any help
Thank you for a great video. I never solder before and know I feel comfortable doing it after watching your awesome tutorial.....Thanks for the links to the products you use.
Great Video ! If i make three of these can i connect them all to the same power supply?
A great video thank you for sharing, it has been very helpful
Awesome! I'm glad you liked it and thanks for taking the time to comment!
I purchased the giver outdoor leds. It’s the two reels 16 each. It’s split so that the power cord is in the center instead of the beer end. Can one simply wire it up like that?
Hi Chris, thank you so much for your videos, they are very helpful and well explained. I have a question about welding. With this type of LED strip every 50 cm they have a soldered connection. Currently for my project I would have to divide the 5m into two strips of 2.5m each. Reconnect the two strips as you did in another video with the Govee M1 strip, is it possible? Is it necessary to insert an additional power injection after connection?. Thank you in advance for your kind reply.
Great tutorial clearer than egg whites! Appreciate you dude! Do you have the Links to all the items needed on your description? Links to the soldering machine and wire etc would be dope!
Bloody awesome video - I need to repair some LED strip indicators on my motorbike and have struggled with plastic strip melting etc., ... - this makes it all so bloody stupidly obvious! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thanks so much for posting this - you've no idea how helpful this is 😁😁😁😁😁😁
Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment! I'm glad you liked the video!! You are very welcome my friend!
This needs to be the first result on RUclips. Period. Such a good tutorial. Thank you for this 🙏
Thanks souch for watching and glad you like it!!
Awesome video. Can you be more specific on how you hid the wires along your wall?
What cable cross section did you use to connect led strips? Is 0.25qmm good?
Thanks for these tips :)
You are very welcome! Thanks so much for watching!
Thanks, and superb.
Are you using flux?
Looks fun
Thanks again for watching!
This is great! Thank you very much. Do you know how to combine LED strips and DMX? I’ve found ways to make all of them the same color/intensity, but I’d love to hear if you have ideas on how to work with individually addressable strips. This is for a church stage design.
Thanks man!
Thanks so much! I have not played around with DMX yet but hopefully at some point I will branch out and check it out! Hopefully down the road I can be of more help on this topic!
Hi Chris I'm trying to solder philips hue light strips but they have 5 pins so hard to solder them cuz the pins so close to each other I also have an issue with solder feels like the pen temprature dips and the verry end tip seems to not get hot? you got any tips?
What gauge wire do you recommend for these LED strips?
Hey Chris, do you ever have issues with connecting to WIFI on these boards? I have 2 esp32 boards in separate rooms and it seems like I can only get one at a time to connect in the WLED app. I have to go into the WiFi the board is sending out to control the other. I’ve tried a WiFi extender and wiping the board and reinstalling WLED and I’m still having issues.
Great tutorial. I usually skip any tutorial where the author has been pretentious enough to put “THE BEST” in the title. You don’t make that determination, the audience does. I would have used DuPont connectors for the end board myself. Thanks for the great info.
I just tried soldering for the first time and sucked horribly at it. But now after re-watching your video, I feel like I will be a bit better next time. I knew the trick about tinning both the gun and wire, but I missed the part of holding the gun under the wire until it was heated up enough to take the solder from the top. I also did not try the push in method from the edge of the strip. Hopefully now, I'll get it work and not want to rip my own hair out.
Thanks so much for watching and thanks for the comment! Yeah, in my experience, the type of solder you use makes the biggest difference in the world. The one I use in this video came highly recommended and has been amazing to work with!
Are u using solder with the wax stuff in it so it heats up faster?
I know this is an older video and this may have been asked before but, could you essentially solder wires to an uncut LED strip to essentially split the signals and power without having a gap in your LED conduit?
I'm so new to all of this. How do you know what color wire to put where
You are my favorite channel this year! awesome videos. One quick tip that I see you completely ignored: Use flux! that will change your soldering life.
Thanks so much for watching and I'm glad you are liking the videos! Appreciate the kind words buddy! Are you able to see if the solder I'm using has flux? It says this in the description: Core / Flux Type: Rosin Core / 44 Flux (3.3%) amzn.to/3HIRjod
@@ChrisMaherDIY you need to apply flux to the contacts with a little brush and to the wire before you apply heat+solder wire, it will flow super nice and quicker (so less heat time needed, less chances to melt/damage), also less chances of cold solder joints.
@@bluetorch13 thanks again! Do you have a flux that you recommend?!
I agree with bluetorch. As soon as I started using flux, my soldering become much better, quicker, and easier. I got some from harbor freight a long time ago at beginning of pandemic when supplies were low. I don't suggest it, but it's better than only what comes in the solder.
hi Chris, im a big fan of your work and trying to get into it.. I had no experience in soldering and tried to cut and connect 5 strips by soldering exactly how you shown in your video... I came face to face with few problem number 1. Soldering tool youre using has a beveled half moon cut on it, i tried to find the same but couldn't find exactly type you're using, where did you get this one ?
im using pointy one and it makes my life hell, also it doesnt really warm up through the wire down to copper plate so copper plate solder is always hard no matter how long i keep my tool over the wire on top of copper plate , so frustrating , please tell me a tip on how to avoid this headache
thank you very much brother , keep posting
Brilliant video, thank you. Question: I'm using separate flux and solder, it is easier using a combined product?
Thanks so much for watching and great question! So I actually have never tried the separate flux and solder. When trying to solder for the first time I just searched for what solder to use and the stuff I linked in the video is what so many people said was hands down the best solder they had ever used so that is what I started with and have had no problems at all. So my guess is using flux and solder would more than likely be a similar experience from what I have had with the combined option but that is coming form someone who has not done it the way you are doing. Are you having any trouble doing it your way or is it pretty easy and things flow and stick like they should?
Hey Chris this is ND amazing video. My husband and I are trying a light project but so far soldering has been very hard, is there any suggestions for tip size for our soldering iron or something? Thank you!!
recommendations on heat gun? also great video!
Good stuff
Thanks so much for watching! Glad you liked the video!
Hey Chris, have you ever ran into an issue of only the first LED lighting up green on a strip? I have one strip I didn’t solder that works perfectly, but the one I cut and soldered isn’t working.
Great tutorial!
I'm really liking that cupped tip on the iron you're using.
I've done a fair amount of soldering to PCB's, but today's search resulted from me needing to solder RGB LED Light strips together.
6:25 My situation is compounded by me lights being covered by a layer of silicone, that I'll have to practice separating and cleaning for solder.
SLFS = Subbed, Liked, Favorited, and Shared!👍
With the ESP32 board, do you know which GPIO number corresponds to the D2 pin? My board just has the GPIO numbers on it
This is great no expansive tools no bs branded shit just whats neccessary to get started
Alright I got all the things - most of it from the links in this video - I have the same Kester solder and soldering iron. I am excited to add this to my minimal skillset. Any guidance on temp settings for the iron?
Thanks so much for watching and that's exciting! Appreciate the support buddy! I generally have my iron between 550 and 600 degrees F. Seems to work well for me around those temps!
Great tutorial Chris, when I first got into LEDs I pulled apart an old broken VCR and practiced soldering on that till I was ok... Ish!
That last video using the SK6812'S was great and I'm definitely going to use them instead of my old rgbww analogue strips I've just binned, but for the areas where I don't need a warm white I've been looking at the new SK9822 strips, apparently they don't suffer so much voltage dropping problems but they also have clock as well as data, do you know if having that clock connection means I'll have more control over the speeds? Or is it something else?.
Appreciate your thoughts.
Practice makes perfect! Even though I still don't love to solder, its not as bad as I built it up to be in my head lol. I'll have to take a look at those new SK9822 strips! I see they have the 4 pin setup with the clock connection. I did a quick google and have no more idea now than I did 10 minutes ago on what the benefits of the clock connection or how it would be used. There has to be some reason its there and some way that makes it better! I'm going to keep trying to learn about it to see if its something that would work good on new projects! Thanks as always buddy!
@@ChrisMaherDIY
Ha ha, that's exactly what I've been doing!
I'm sure somewhere on google we'll find the answer,
Thanks Chris.
Great videos Chris, I'm not sure which pin to use for data on my ESP32 board, mine doesn't have a D2 or D4 printed on the board? The pin on my board says G15?
Any ideas thanks
I've got the same issue. Any update?
Thanks again for great video! (y)
You are more than welcome! Thanks as always for watching!
What if i want to power LEDs in 2 seperate rooms or more? can i just extend the 18 gauge wires all i want from the same power source?
Thank you bro really helpful
Love your videos! Question, is there any enclosure you'd recommend to protect the ESP32 board?
Thanks so much! I really have not used an enclosure but I know some people in videos just use like a plastic soap travel container for housing the esp board! I thought that was a great idea if needed!
