Hi guys,
I just fitted a led ceiling light for my mothra there seems to be an issue. Turning it on I was expecting it to burn our retinas out but no it's so dim you can hardly tell it's on. I'm assuming it needs 2 feeds because it has 2 terminals for Live and Neutral

no - two feeds shouldnt be needed.

Was it the connections??

I fitted an LED strip light for someone this week. And yes it had 2 connections for both L and N. Only one feed needed though.

Retro fitted a Fluorescent tube for a friend last night... All depends if it's an electronic ballast (Which needs major re-wiring) or an old Magnetic one, which just needed the Starter replacing with a special "fuse" one. Proper minefield if you don't know what you are doing though!! (This one was a magnetic one, however i still traced all the feeds just to make sure as you can never be sure what cowboy has been in there before!)

Ha kinda a connection issue but more an eye issue I had the neutral in the earth hole. Wasn't until I sat down and looked up
