Details

The end-glow optical fibre reel is suitable for starlight ceiling or wall projects and displays, car interior decoration, floor and countertops, waterfall or fountain decoration, fibre optic chandeliers, garden decorations and sauna lighting. This option is suitable for you if the ready-made optical fibre bundles are not suitable for your project and you’d like to create your own bundle.

The end-glow fibres only transmit the light. They don’t generate light and are not suitable to bear heavy loads. Care must be taken not to place excessive weight on the fibres. You will need a light engine

FAQs

Why go with the DIY option instead of a read-made panel?

You have more flexibility to create your own starlight ceiling with the fibre optic kits and it’s easier on your budget, compared to ready-made panels. 

The kits are delivered from our UK warehouse within two working days from order, while the panels are made-to-order and usually takes 7-8 weeks to deliver.

What do I have to consider before ordering?

Fibre optic kits are suitable if you have access to the void above your ceiling (e.g. loft area or sufficient space in a ceiling void) or you can create your special housing or a false ceiling that will accommodate the fibres and the light engine.

How do I decide from all the available options?

Measure the area you wish to cover with stars. We recommend 50-100 fibres per square meter. For a 2m x 2m area (4 sqm), we recommend 200-400 fibres. 

You can then either check the small/medium-large section of here or compare options in the light engine comparison table and the fibre optic bundle comparison table. 

The light engine’s port diameter determines the maximum fibre capacity. The larger the port the more fibre it can take. 

What’s the difference between kits and light engines?

Some of our products come in a kit (light engine and optical fibres bundle together), while for others, you need to select the light engine and then add the optical fibre bundle separately.

How do I decide on the fibre optic bundle for the kit?

Once you know the area you want to cover and picked a light engine based on its features and optical fibre capacity, look at the available options in the fibre optic bundle comparison table.  Most bundle options have different length variations. Consider the distance of the furthest star points from the light engine to determine which length variation is the most suitable for you. Please note that most bundles have mixed diameter and length fibres.

Which products are available?

If a product is out of stock, you won’t be able to add it to your cart. If you wish to order more than what we have in stock, the system will let you know the maxim quantities you can order.

Installation

Creating a bundle

To create a bundlle, you will require a bundle connector. They are either included with our light engines or offered as a recommended accessory. The bundle connector’s diameter determines the number of fibres you can use. Here are some examples for 0.75 mm fibres. The more larger diameter fibres you mix in, the less fibres you can fit into the connector.

  • Cut the fibres to the desired lengths

  • Align all the fibre ends and fasten with tape that can resist temperature over 130℃

  • Pass the fibres through the connector and fasten the rotary tensioner until the fibres are tightened

  • Cut the fibre bundle to a flat surface with a heat-knife or sharp blade.

  • Make sure that the optical fibre bundle head is smooth and clean to ensure even light distribution.

  • Place the fibre optic bundle’s connector into the light engine’s port connector. Fasten the bundle with the screw on the top of the light engine’s port connector.

Ceiling installations

Optical fibres can be installed on ceilings made of gypsum plasterboard, wood, perspex and stretch ceilings.  Using appropriately sized drill bits (1 mm & 1.5 mm), you can make holes for your optical fibres in the layout of your choice, whether that's randomly distributed or in an ordered pattern.

Our installation guide and video provide more advice on how to install your star ceiling.
