GENERAL PRODUCT
What is the lifetime of an LED Neon Sign?
The lifetime of our LED neon lights are subject to a number of different factors, including but not limited to: the usage time, surrounding environment, and the quality of the running electrical unit.
On average we can say that your new Light It Up Neon sign should last 6 to 10 years (or up to 50,000 hours).
We don't reccommend keeping your neon sign running 24 hours a day, in order to optimise its lifespan.
What is the LED neon flex tube attached to?
All of our neon signs are laid professionally onto a high quality acrylic back board. This ensures that each sign has the appropriate support required.
You can choose from a variety of back board cut options including:
• Cut to Shape (Cut around and countoured to the shape of the design)
• Cut to Letter (Cut closely to the letters)
• Cut to Square/Rectangle (Cut as a Square/Rectangle around your design)
Our available back board colour options include: Clear/Transparent, Any solid colour, Silver Mirror and Gold Mirror.
Can I use my new neon light sign outdoors?
Our standard LED neon signs are Indoor signs, but they are perfectly fine to use outdoors at events, provided they do not get wet. Our standard signs are NOT watertight and should not be exposed to wet weather.
If you do require an Outdoor Waterproof Neon Sign, we can easily create this for you using our premium outdoor neon flex technology. We have an Outdoor Waterproof option on our Custom Neon Builder, and also a checkbox on our Custom Neon Enquiry form.

DIMMER REMOTE
Do I need a Dimmer Remote for my neon sign?
Our Dimmer Remote is an optional extra, provided upon the desire of the customer.
The dimmer remote offers a range of awesome functions including:
• The ability to turn your neon sign ON and OFF using a wireless remote
• The ability to adjust the brightness of your neon sign
• The ability to set various "party modes" such as flashing and pulsing
We do recommend purchasing the Dimmer Remote as it allows you to dim the brightness of the sign, to allow for better exposure when using the neon light as a photo backdrop.
How can I disconnect from the Dimmer?
If you have purchased the optional Dimmer Remote and decide you do not want to use it, you can simply remove the clip-on attachment that is connected to the dimmer. Instead, you will then plug your sign directly into the black power adaptor cable that is provided with your neon sign purchase.
The dimmer remote will no longer control the sign, and you will need to use the powerpoint switch to turn your neon light ON and OFF.
How do I use the RGB Dimmer Remote?
Our RGB Dimmer Remote is provided for FREE with all RGB Multi-colour neon sign purchases.
The remote will require 3x AAA batteries to turn on and is extremely easy to operate.
Click here to view the functionality of the remote and assess what each button will allow you to do!
Why is my Dimmer Remote not turning on?
Both our single colour and RGB multi-colour dimmer remotes require 3x AAA batteries to turn on.
Due to international shipping laws, we are unable to provide these, and they must be acquired from the customer.
If the dimmer remote or neon sign is still not turning on after fitting the batteries, please contact us at support@lightitupneon.com and we will happily assist you from there.
