The best Led strip lights

[JM ELECTRICAL]

wheres the best place to go for both one colour led strips and rgbw ? Or the best brand to look for when buying for good value for money ?

Used planet lighting but there are plenty on the market since - will be interesting to hear others replies. I need some for a job soon so I'll be following this one.

Just been fitting the Ansell cobra tape on a job in cool white which has come up really well. I'll take a picture tomorrow when I finish it off. You can buy it in different lengths and then also cut it down at approx 3-4cm intervals. It is plug and play but there is a little bit of soldering required if you need to bring in right angle bends etc

I use hiline-lighting. High cri, good quality strips and drivers. I only use the 24v strip, i don't think they even do a 12v strip. Not the cheapest but you get what you pay for, a lot of strip you can buy won't even tell you what their cri is because it's so low, let alone the other details. All the info on their website so you know what you're getting isn't budget manufactured rubbish.

So far I've only installed one set of LED tape with 3M sticky back. Came unstuck after a day. So never again.

Would use an aluminium extrusion to 'stick' it in, if ever there's a next time. I'll also be following, for future reference.

Edit; however was nearly tempted to use some of Collingwoods, but never got the job.

Hello Guys,

I applied for Electrician work. I was asked to provide ECS card and IPAF card but unfortunately I don't have IPAF card. I called the providers but they seems not to know what type of IPAF training I required.
Please can anyone help me here. Even when I checked, there is upto 8 IPAF.

Thanks ...

Shouldn't you start your own thread somewhere else?

You'll need 3a3b for normal work. Check out the 'Nationwide' site for all IPAF stuff. Then learn how to start your own thread and not just push buttons!
All the best!

@tomspark93 looks great, very clean an clinical, coolwhite has its place. This is one I did a few months back using the hiline lighting kit. RGBW kit controlled on zwave rgbw dimmers. The under cabinet strips were supposed to light the glass up, but the glass fitter got the depth wrong so the extrusions were in the wrong palce, doesnt look too bad though.

Ooo
I do love some pretty pictures.
Looks very smart.

Only ever get basic kitchens. Few sockets here or there maybe a few triangular led under cabs if it's really posh
