Heat and lamp maintenance are the major “design challenges” to overcome when using Quartz Halogen or HID lighting. Typically, the light source is installed in the ceiling, requiring additional electrical outlets or wiring the LS directly into an existing light circuit. As a matter of convenience, the LS should be located in a closet (for convenient lamp changing) but this limits the pattern coverage when using an off-the-shelf kit; unless an extension bundle is used, or the user opts for a custom installation.

Separate Fiber Bundles– if your project is larger or smaller than a standard star ceiling kit can cover. Add on Effects for our Fiber Optic Star Ceilings Quality and affordability: Our fibre optic lighting kits are crafted with the utmost quality, ensuring a long-lasting and captivating experience. We take pride in offering affordable prices without compromising on excellence. Star ceilings can add a touch of magic and ambiance to all sorts of industries and spaces. Here are a few industries that could benefit from incorporating star ceilings: Locate your washers under the felt and use an X-Acto knife or box cutter to cut a slit on the top of each washer in your panel. Leave enough room on each side of the slit to allow you to insert a screw and screw it into place. DO NOT attempt to screw directly into the felt without first cutting the slit. Your felt will twist around the screw and rip off from the foam board (don’t worry about about the hole, it can be easily concealed later). fiber is the base size for the star field effect. Using various diameters, as well as varying the fiber-end distance from the ceiling improves realism. The recommended sizes are 5mm, .75mm, 1mm, (as well as 1.5mm, and 3mm on rare occasions).

It’s easy to find pictures online of people who have the most ideal set up when it comes to star ceilings. But even the most awkward of shapes can accommodate them. It just takes the added step of consulting a professional. The next step is to create the holes for your stars. But first, you have to clear away insulation from the top of the ceiling. I have the blown-in insulation, which is a little harder to move around than the sheet-style. It also breaks up easier, gets in your skin and lungs and causes death. Or at least... you'll itch really badly and have a nasty raspy cough. So, do this when your attic is somewhat cool so you can wear jeans and a long flannel. I started this during the hottest July that North Texas has seen in decades. My first trip up there (120* heat) was brief, which also describes my attire. Hoo hah! Anyway, 30 m If loft insulation is present it will really help to remove it before you start your project. It can be replaced over the fibres when the job is finished. As soon as you can, start putting zip ties around your new bundle. I even opted to put zip ties on during the process, about every 20 strands or so and just cut them off later. Believe me this could save a lot of time if something happens and you don't want to have to start a bundle all over.Outlets: More cases than not, you’ll need to install additional ones throughout your ceiling. Most people choose to do a drop-down ceiling instead of replacing the foundation. That means the electrical cords will have to be routed in between the original ceiling and the fiber optic platform. It takes some decent planning and some sweat equity to make it happen the correct way, but it’s well worth the investment. Expect to need a couple hundred dollars to pay for the labor of installing new ones. I've seen instructables and "how-tos" on creating high-contrast mobiles and decorations, but the 'blinking lights' part escaped me. A local movie theater has a beautiful starfield ceiling above their concession stand, and this inspired me to create my own. The home-theater crowd has been creating these star-ceilings for years... but I never saw these in baby-nursery settings. So... here we go. Fiber Optic lighting uses a bright white LED source transmitting via an acrylic cable to a fixture or point of light, making it safer to use in the home and in a business. Fibre optic lighting lasts far longer than traditional lighting fixtures andismuch more flexible. It uses less energy than most other light sources, making ita greener alternative. Because Fiber Optic lighting does not get hot like most other light sources,it is great forall applications including commercial freezers or museums,avoiding damage and fading to goods. Unretouched image of a Starscape Custom Harness Star Ceiling System installed by Admit One Cinema (Edina, MN) Lay your panel down flat on top of a table and take a moment to clean the panel. No doubt by now your panel is full of lint, foam bits and dust. Take a lint roller and go over the entire surface, it worked really well on mine to clean the panel of debris.

They used a simple, wooden skeleton platform. You could easily assemble the same, crisscrossing design they did. In fact, this one works best and a lot of people go this route. Notice how all they had to do after was staple a hard covering paper material to the structure where the optical lights would go.

However, your best option is to use a light engine with dual ports, such as the LEK-432 APP or LEK-432 DMX models. This is because a single light engine can be connected to two optical fibre bundles. Q: Do I need to be able to access the light engine after it’s been installed?I highly recommend you call a local company to get a realistic quote. As much as I want to put in a bunch of charts that provide price ranges, it’s honestly not helpful! It always comes down to personal preferences based on the factors mentioned above.

Get yourself a large work area - each strand is between 12 and 17 feet long, depending on the kit you go with. Most of the kits come prebundled with 300 strands. Wrap the whole bundle with several zip ties to keep that grouping together and stretch them all the way out.
