Click Flow Connector

Got some small fluorescent tubes under the kitchen cupboards as worktop lighting, very unreliable, going to change them to LED strips (maybe something like this TLC Link) - the feed is direct to the light location, which loops in and out for all the lights, so 2 cables to each light except the last. I expect it'll be a bit fiddly getting 2 cables in to the lights I've linked - so was looking for thoughts.

My idea was to use these (Another TLC Link) and then have one short cable to the strip light. These seem small enough to hide away under the lip of the cupboard alongside the strip light (maybe a bit sticky tape to secure them?)

Just looking for thoughts on the method I'm thinking of, or improvements/suggestions that you might have?

Thanks,

That would be my method of choice too!
Then clip all the cables up out of sight.
Maybe I am getting old..... Lol

Me too. That's what I use.

Call me old fashioned but the little round 20A 4 terminal joint boxes have always worked fine for this, and they even come in white or brown to suit the colour of the cupboard

You're old fashioned, but so am I. The smaller 20a white JBs are very discrete but can be fiddly too.

Precisely.

This is the best way to do it and it will look neat. Just make sure the cable clips you use don't have long nails or else they will may poke up into the cupboard able!

Take all the bone china out of the cupboard first, before hammering home your able clips

seen some white base units, but ain't seen no chocolate brown ones yet, suppose someone like IKEA might do them

The ones made of real wood tend to be some shade of brown.

Oh really, I stand to be corrected.
