@@wyatt_7395 must have better glue these days, there's a lot of comments saying the same thing. Definitely is a problem if not done correctly. Good job
He skipped a lot. You need to make sure the wattage for the controller & LEDs match. And you feed wires from a nearby outlet into your controller. I did this recently and added an occ sensor (motion detection switch). Be sure to get some plastic track with covers, or diffusers, so the lights won’t be so sharp. And you’ll need right angle track covers (I forgot what they’re called) so you can go around corners. You’ll also need some ribbon wire so you can connect between cabinets. Watch other videos on YT before attempting this.
Looks awesome bro. Nice job. The difference between quality tape light LED's installed by someone with a plan and Amazon's cheapest option is very apparent. I typically want dimmable/motion sensor/night light photo cell options but theirs so many options these days and the prices are reasonable.
Great video but I have a question. How do you connect all the lights if the cabinets are in separate parts of the kitchen? Would I just fish it behind the drywall?
You end up with a shadow on the countertop right against the front lip - You can still get "wall wash" if you place it about 3" from the front lip, but with no distracting shadow
What about for the rest of the cabinets how you will add them and where to connect the rest of the light. I just saw only one pice please answer me. Thanks
Not sure what brand of tape lighting I use but I get the driver and dimmer switch all in one, it fits in a single gang box, just much simpler. This does look great!! I've never tried putting it on facing to the back though.
I have a problem. I don't have free outlets anywhere near and I don't want it to be messy by using the far ones. So do these backlights need outlets or can it be done without them?
Need a longer video please. I want to know how to connect ot to my existing over head light switch. Also is it possible to add it to the interior cabinet, like a lower corner cabinet or lazy Susan. I'd like the light to come on when the door opens but turn off when the door is closed.
@@Ty-vn3culook again, the sink is going to go below the window, there needs to be one to the left within 2 ft above where the dishwasher is going to go. That one above the dishwasher on the left side is more than 2 ft away from where the sinks Edge is going to be
My thoughts exactly, and I would never mount them aiming at the wall either (it’s supposed to be task lighting, not a wall washer). They should be aiming down, and a short distance from the front of the cabinet, so as not to cast a shadow on the edge of the countertop.
