Unboxing the Briksmax BX483 LED Light Kit for the Boutique Hotel

 

Hi brick fans!  Here's a quickie unboxing post about the new Briksmax BX483 LED light kit for the Lego Boutique Hotel.  Let's see what we get in the box that Briksmax has kindly provided to us to review.

Opening the light kit for the Boutique Hotel, everything is packaged and wrapped up nicely.

There are two instruction manuals, one user guide and a customer service card.  The manuals provide the detailed step by step instructions on how to integrate the light kit into your set. The user guide describes some of the components and how to attach them together.  The customer service card has contact information for assistance and if you need replacement parts for missing or damaged items.

All of the lighting apparatus is packaged in these static free pouches.

Pouches with the letter A contain the different LED lights, differentiated by the length of the attached wire.  Wire lengths typically come in 15cm and 30cm lengths.

Pouches that start with the letter B contain the brighter LED light strips which come in different lengths, either 4 stud or 6 studs long.

Pouches starting with the letter D contain the connecting wires and expansion boards for the LED lights.  There are different sizes of expansion boards and different lengths of connecting wires.  In my kit, the shorter 6 port expansion boards were incorrectly labelled as 8 port expansion boards.  The pouch should have said D01 instead of D02.

Pouches labelled with the letter F contain the wireless contact pieces which supply power to each level of the boutique hotel building without wires.

There is a pouch containing all the spare pieces you might need to modify your set to adapt the light kit to it.  If you are a Lego purist, you will be pleased to note that Briksmax provides real Lego pieces for the kit.   The pouch labelled D09/G01 contains the USB plug and adhesive pads for attaching the expansion boards to the building walls or ceilings.

Finally, pouch C02 contains the custom street lamp.  Pouch E06 contains the battery pack (uses 3 double As, not provided).  And also included in every light kit is this useful set of tweezers to handle small and delicate parts.
