I am working on a project where I would like to use led edge lighting and I have a whole bunch of questions. I am aware there is edge lighting Acrylic that would improve lighting.
1: Is there an ideal thickness of Acrylic to use?
2: What is the maximum height of Acrylic material that can be edge lit when lighting from the bottom?
3: Is there an ideal number of led lights/wattage per inch?
4: What is the ideal depth of cut/engraving?
5: Would placing a background behind the Acrylic help with the lighting?
6: Does one color of led seem to work better than others?
7: Will the outer shape of the Acrylic have any effect on the lighting; ie, round versus rectangle?
Any additional input would be appreciated.
Thanks
Larry
