Under cabinet LEDs

[Hellmooth]

Looking for some led under cabinet lights, looked at these from tlc, have also fitted the LED tape which I was impressed with, looking for similar ideas, cheers!

20pcs White Square 5050 SMD 4LED Pixel Modules DC12V OFUK | eBay

lot straight from china for a tenner. if you dont need the looks (they sit under the cabinet anyway)
bit pain in the back to connect, i usually solder+shrink them up on site.
you feed them standard 12v DC, works in the van too.
10 modules in my kitchen now, all working no problems for years, recently controlled by PIR activated dimmer.

Look decent and sounds good, but would prefer an easy install lol, and money isn't really an object in this one, although they are under the cabinet they could still be visible when sat down at the kitchen table, so was looking for something that looks good as well!

roll of led tape and a 230-12v transformer would be my choice

Can the tape be cut? I've used some myself but just ran the tape right out and hid the excess!

yes i got some after a recomendation on here and it has cut lines.

you just have to solder two wires onto it after you have cut a section off

What kind of transformer/power supply do you use, load isn't going to be much?

you can buy the led strip with a supply from that seller in the dropdown box.

i got mine to use in my van so it is running straight off the 12v feed for the lights

If you're fitting it for a customer it's much better to use the aluminium extrusion with clip on diffusers as it holds the tape better and acts as a heat sink
