4. Setup and Installation
- Preparation: Ensure your working area is clean and free of static electricity. Gather necessary tools such as a soldering iron, solder, and appropriate wiring.
- Heat Dissipation: The LED chip is pre-welded to an aluminum substrate, and thermal grease has been applied. This design facilitates heat dissipation. For optimal performance and longevity, ensure the LED chip is mounted to an additional heat sink or a surface that can effectively dissipate heat. The heat dissipation temperature of the aluminum material should not exceed 60 ℃ (140 ℉).
- Wiring: Identify the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals on the LED chip's aluminum plate. Connect your 5V power supply wires to the corresponding terminals. Ensure correct polarity to prevent damage.
- Soldering: Carefully solder the wires to the terminals. Use appropriate soldering techniques to ensure a secure and reliable connection. Avoid prolonged heat application to the LED chip.
- Mounting: Secure the LED chip in your desired lighting fixture or application. Ensure it is stable and that there is adequate airflow around the heat dissipation area.

5. Operating Instructions
Once properly installed and connected to a stable 5V power source, the LED chip will illuminate instantly.
- Power Supply: Always use a regulated 5V DC power supply that can provide sufficient current for the number of LED chips being used. Each chip consumes 1W of power.
- Load Capacity: Do not exceed the specified load capacity of your power supply or the individual LED chip's voltage and wattage ratings. Overloading can lead to damage and reduced lifespan.
- Application: These LED chips are versatile and can be used in various DIY projects, including custom flashlights, decorative lighting, accent lighting, and small spotlights.

6. Maintenance
- Cleaning: If necessary, gently clean the surface of the LED chip with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Heat Management: Regularly check that the heat dissipation system (e.g., heat sink) is free from dust and debris to ensure efficient cooling. Overheating can significantly reduce the lifespan of the LED.
- Environmental Conditions: These LED chips are not waterproof. Ensure they are used in dry environments or adequately protected from moisture if used outdoors.
- Connection Integrity: Periodically inspect soldered connections for any signs of corrosion or loosening, especially in applications subject to vibration or environmental stress.

8. Safety Information
- Always disconnect power before installing, maintaining, or troubleshooting the LED chips.
- Do not look directly into the illuminated LED chip for extended periods, as the bright light can cause eye strain or damage.
- Ensure proper heat dissipation. The aluminum material's temperature should not exceed 60 ℃ (140 ℉).
- These LED chips are not waterproof. Protect them from water and moisture.
- Do not exceed the rated 5V voltage or 1W power for each chip.
- Keep out of reach of children.
