Best LED strip lights I've found

**SovietDooM** · 02-11-13, 06:21 PM

Just thought I would let you guys in on a home lighting system my father has picked up on. We have been scoping LED strip lights for a few years at the CES show and these are by far the best.

You need a 6 Amp AC to DC adapter but thats about $10.

$30 total and you can turn anything and anyroom in the epic.

We tried them out on our spiral stair case, after the cats chomped on the wires.... The range of colors, intensity, and settings blew me away. I'm buying my own for whatever, likely run them around the bed frame or around the closet door.

If anyone is thinking about a new light setup of just wants to spend $30 on something entertaining, look into it.

Just remeber Chinese New Year, everyone's off until the 17th.

So they are cord and plug connected, I assume......hmmmm.

Can you cut them? Might be cool for some cove lighting.

Neat-O.

LED lighting is the future.

would be sweet on a motorcycle, considering a lighting kit for a bike is about 90 bucks

Yes, Dex, ever 3 LEDs you can cut the strip, making it as long as you want.

I'll take a pic of the power hook up later today when I get back from work.

Have you found any in round rope style?

**DancingCorpse** · 02-12-13, 03:18 PM

These things are awesome, and I will be buying a roll or two or three or ten on Friday...

My father has been farting around with the lights in the kitchen, mostly changing things up. I'll talk with him about the exact wiring setup. I haven't seen round rope style at the show from what I recall. Festus I would say look at what the sell, you might turn up what your are looking for.

I would have gotten some photos up but A:CM has had my attention all day.

Padre's out doing something today, not really sure, so I didn't get to ask him.
The strip plugs into this,

and you take this,

and solder it to the adapter you want. I'm not an electrician but I would think you can hook to your car/Motorcycle with not to many issues.
You buy the power connector separately. Again a small expense, so you just need to meet the power needs
