20-Pack 3.3FT LED Strip V Channel

I’ve used this in 2 different bedrooms now and I have to say that it’s a pain in the butt to install. I’m not degrading the quality as it works quite well and is worth the labor but be warned, it’s a job to do it.The good news is, once it’s up, it’s up permanently and if your leds go bad just rip them out and install anew. For best results use 3 clips per section but 2 will work if you’re using every channel as mine didn’t have enough to do 3 per channel when using every piece. If your room is smaller and you have extra clips, use them! as more clips give a tighter stronger mount.I do really like the look as they blend right in with my ceiling and you don’t even notice they’re there until the leds come on. In a way I wish the diffusers were a little less opaque as it diminishes the color a bit but worth it when the leds are off.

I used these with some LED strips to light up my rooms. They include all the mounting equipment you need to affix them to dry wall, but I opted to use some adhesive 3M strips instead. They are very light weight so I was able to use a single 3lb strip to hold each section. The diffuser worked well and for the most part, it was easy to install. I used a hacksaw to but the aluminum and the diffuser can be eaisly cut with a pair of scissors.

Cutting and installing was such a pain, but it was definitely worth it in the end. It looks amazing and stops the lights from shining directly into my eyes without dimming them too much. The kit came with screws but I installed it below a drop ceiling, so I used a bunch of double sided command tape instead.Unfortunately, the elbow pieces provided are concave only; this is fine in a rectangular room, but any other room requires some creativity. I had to install some of the elbows backwards to maintain the theme, but it looks a little funky, and there are no convex elbows for purchase anywhere. If the company offered a separate kit of extra concave and convex elbows, I would give it 5 stars.

The media could not be loaded. My husband wanted to install these to go with the LED's he put up in our family room. I didn't think they were necessary until I saw it. They definitely look nicer with these and they weren't too hard to install.I did see that someone suggested using double sided tape. That might have made it even easier, but I didn't see that suggestion until we'd already put them up.

Work great and looks way better than bare lights. They were kinda annoying to screw in due to the size of the screws but they work and look good. I rated some categories low because it makes no sense to ask me about brightness and adhesion since it does neither. Pretty satisfied though

So, first of all, the channels and the clips for these angled channels should have the back corner (V) taken off such that they don’t have to sit in a perfectly square corner. I was mounting to the ceiling where wall and cloning meet, but as we know, sheet rockers doing mud and tape don’t make those corners square. The clips don’t sit flush to the wall or ceiling for this. This also leads to joints being uneven in some cases which affect the final outlook of the product.Secondly, the plastic diffuser clips are a pain in the A to get in. I started by trying to bend/ push them in my hand with my thumbs. That hurt like nobody’s business. Then I thought, I wonder if I could squeeze them slightly with a pair of pliers till they pop in. That worked a little, but because they’re pliers and metal and don’t stay at a fixed width, they tend to scratch the plastic, so then I came up with an idea of cutting a piece of hardwood to be just slightly smaller width than the plastic in finished clipped in position and slightly deeper of a arc to give room for the diffuser to flex. This was a true lifesaver and only took me 30 mins for 2 rooms. I just put the diffuser in one channel and then places my tool over it and rocked it back and forth and it popped right in. I then slide it along the strip and I hear it pop in all down the line. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still a lot of effort!Third, while the inside corner brackets work ok, it would be nice if there were some outside corner brackets available.

Bough two sets, seem very well made and assemble super easy. Seems much cheaper than most of the others on the market. Will definitely buy more if needed.

Muy buen producto
