WTF: Opening IKEA Storjorm cabinet door -> LED lights on both sides turn off?

reddit.com › r › led › comments › qysibn › wtf_opening_ikea_storjorm_cabinet_door_led_lights

I’ve got an IKEA Storjorm mirror cabinet, and something has gone wrong with it. If I open the right side door beyond a certain point (ca. 45 degrees), the LED lights for the entire cabinet (both sides) go out (see video). There must be a loose connection or something somewhere, but I’m clueless as to where and how to fix it, and I’m guessing it will eventually disconnect entirely unless fixed. I figured you fine folks here or over in r/ikeahacks/ might have an idea what to do. Any advice much appreciated! Answer from DaffyD82 on reddit.com

r/AskElectricians on Reddit: IKEA Storjorm ideas?

December 25, 2023 -

Have this IKEA cabinet with LEDs on the front. As can be seen, the wires frayed and shorted out right where the door moves the cable. Any ideas on how to fix this given the short is SO close to the device? Any leads on IKEA replacement parts?

November 27, 2017 -

We just bought a Storjorm cabinet and I'm wondering if anyone has tried replacing the lights. I'm going to attempt it but was hoping for tips before I start.

They're custom shape LED strips and they come with a built-in power cord/adapter. I'm not sure how you'd go about changing them. Granted, I know nothing about electronics, so this might be easy enough to get around.

No, the tradfri driver is connected directly to the Hue bridge, its paired and I can control the driver but the LEDs still just blinks. I dont think this would work. The Storjorm LED connectors is not the same as the Tradfri ones. Its needs some moding to fit. Instead I connected the original Storjorm driver with an Innr SP 120 smart plug and control the LED that way.

r/DIY on Reddit: Is this safe? (Electrical) (Ikea Storjorm)

April 1, 2017 -

I was just wondering if this was safe. This unit is supposed to be hardwired into the wall. It has the usual green, black, and white wires. http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/10250084/ We are, ahem, I mean she is using it as a makeup vanity. So I found a work around, but it involves cutting open a existing 3 pronged cord (I used a computer one, if that matters) and just using a twist on. This allows me to plug it into a wall. Here is sort of what I was thinking. https://www.familyhandyman.com/electrical/repair/extension-cord-repair/view-all#step1

Is this effectively what's going on when you hardwire it? Is it safe? Sorry for all the facepalms I've caused. And thank you for your time.

r/ikeahacks on Reddit: Replacing STORJORM power supply.

January 22, 2024 -

I've searched and found some similar questions about this, but they seem to have a different power supply than this one. I can't seem to find an exact match, but ive found similar items. I just don't know enough about LEDs to know what's important.

This seems to be a common failure, and it asks me that IKEA refuses to sell just the power supply and LEDs, and wants me to buy a whole new mirror instead because the lights stopped working after 6 years.

It says constant current, i think that's important. I think the input side is not critical. I believe the 600mA DC is important as is not exceeding 24V on the output.

Ive found this on Amazon

And this on ebay.

Would either of these work, or am I looking for the wrong thing?

Appreciate your help!

Hello, I am considering purchasing this cabinet but do not want to install the LED light strips. I reveiwed the assembly guide but the pictures were not clear. Does the mirror on the outside and the door on the inside have indents along edge to insert the LED strip? Or is the mirror on the outside and the door on the inside completely flat? How would my installation plan look? Thank you!

Here's a page describing the constant current power supply: https://www.ledsupply.com/blog/constant-current-led-drivers-vs-constant-voltage-led-drivers/ The amazon driver you listed doesn't produce enough voltage, and the eBay one seems to produce too much voltage. Meanwell makes some very reliable LED drivers, I'm running my entire Ikea kitchen 24 V LED lighting (countertop, drawers, upper cabinets) with their constant voltage dimmers, there is nothing extraordinary with the way Ikea powers their LED lights, however their wiring/connectors are unique. I would suggest you get in touch with the folk at LED supply to figure out the best solution for you. I'm thinking the APC-16-700 comes pretty close to what you need, but I don't have enough information to provide you a solid answer. https://www.ledsupply.com/blog/meanwell-power-supply-guide/ Of course, please ensure that power is disconnected completely before replacing the power supply, you don't want to become the light bulb yourself!! If you don't know what you're doing around electrical stuff, leave this work to an electrician. ;)
