Diode soldered in with the band towards the capacitor, but as you suspected, it did not solve my non-memory issue :(. Is there anything else I could try with this controller? If not, I might just go for a downstream switching solution and keep the controller powered on at all times. Thanks for...

I'm not sure, but I think it's mains voltage (240V), see website here, which contains a link to further information and installation details. The rope light has three pins, which I guess translates to two 'feeds' and a single 'return' (2-channel), and my guess is that with the bulbs interleaved...

Thought that might be the case, so thank you for the confirmation!

Many thanks for the feedback, I will give that a go. I presume the diode would go in series with the dropping resistor, so the resistor can still do its job (but one way only)? FYI, the other 4 diodes in that corner are 1N5399, which seems to be the 1.5A version of the 14N007 (1A), so I'll...

Hello all, I found this forum in my quest to adapt my LED rope light controller so that it remembers the last setting it was on. I am technically minded and comfortable soldering in/out circuit board components, but I don't have an electronics background so rely on sites likes this to find a...
