Evening all,
I'm looking for supplier of good quality LED strips (preferably 24v) with 3000 and 4000K colours. There's a lot of stuff about but want a supplier who does decent/recommended stuff rather that cheap crap from ebay!

I've narrowed it down to two brands which are MK & Crabtree and Screwfix stock both at reasonable prices.
Which brand shall I go for?
