I literally found mine in a box of electronics at a garage sale but sadly no wires/clips/housing/or control box. I am going to wire them myself with clips I'll make and use fish tank air hose as housing my only roadblock is the control box. Guess YouTube is gonna show me how to make a control box 😂
This seems complicated 😂
Great video. Thank you.
Me too
how can we order? & how much per meter?( warm light)
Thank you for this video, but I thought that when you order these LED light strips from Amazon or elsewhere, they come ready to plug in? I need to buy more stuff to get them plugged in and working
You are missing the most important step though . . . connecting to power! There are two kinds of LED, plug in and hardwired. I haven't found any decent tutorials on connecting hardwired LED to 120 volt connection without a plug since the commercial line of LED typically are not plug in . . .
All important thinks name.. 😅
Legends are watching 2024 😂
Thank you so much Mike Barnes
