Keep kids safe with tamper-resistant outlets and night lights

admin — Thu, 06 May 2010 15:54:05 +0000

Moms with a baby or toddler at home should check out these tamper-resistant electrical outlets and night lights. Tamper-resistant, or child safety electrical outlets, prevent a child from sticking an object into the electrical socket. They’re easy to install and have built-in protection that’s always there – better than plastic outlet caps! Great for the nursery, playroom and childproofing the house. From Legrand/Pass & Seymour.

Electrical Plugs installation for custom LED light strings (socket stringer cord).

admin — Tue, 27 Apr 2010 02:24:57 +0000

ImaginaryColours.com presents an instructional video on how to properly install the slide-on type of plugs on your custom light strings. This is an important video to watch. Many people put plugs on incorrectly. The funny thing is, if you connect the wires backward, the lights will still work. However, you will have inadvertently disabled the inherent safety mechanism provided by the Neutral conductor.

NOTE: If you are not experienced with electricity, we recommend you have a qualified electrician do all your electrical work. We at ImaginaryColours are not electricians, and we provide this information and believe it is accurate. However, you mess with your electrical stuff at your own risk!

CTS-EP10 Even Cheaper and Cooler DIY Lighting

Continuing on with budget lighting, we explore using Fluorescent and LED lights, along with using available light, bouncing it with a reflector. These setups will work great for interviews, video casting, vlogging, and the like. These lights use less power and also generate much less heat then big halogen work lights. And the price can’t be beat. We also show the benefits of adjusting White Balance on your camera, with lots of before and after shots. If you are shooting independent movies, stay tuned at the end where we show lighting for shots using the interior of a car.
