So last year.. bought a refurbished Samsung TV 65 inch. Bought some cool white LED lighting and taped it onto the back of the TV... it looked amazing when lit up. The lights were mains operated, not USB.
A few months later a major problem cropped up with the TV screen... a permanent border ended up all around the edge of the screen... with a reddish haze. Photo here...
TV was returned and got a brand new one to replace it. I've often wondered if taping bright cool white LED's straight onto the back of the TV could have caused the problem?
I want to put the lights back o to the new TV, which is another Samsung 65 inch.
Can taping these lights straight onto the back panel of the TV be harmful to it in any way possible?
