1. An apparatus, comprising:
- a ribbon assembly with two wires, each wire comprising a conductive core surrounded by an insulative material; and
a light emitting diode (“
LED”
) with two leads mounted and secured to the ribbon assembly so that the LED is substantially watertight;
wherein each LED lead pierces into the insulative material and is in electrical contact with the conductive core of a given wire; and
wherein the at least one LED is secured to the ribbon assembly through the use of a glue.

Abstract
Multi-pin LEDs are secured to a ribbon assembly with substantially watertight mountings through use of glue while an LED embedded wire is created by electrically connecting together the axial leads of a plurality of axial LEDs with two conductive wires that are wound around the axial leads and then the resultant subassembly is protected and encased by two pieces of tape. Light effect material is spaced apart from LEDs to create a visually interesting light effect through use of microscopic sized structural components that disperse light and create a noticeable optical effect.
