Review on 5X 1M Ultra-Thin Bendable LED Strip Installation Aluminum Channel System With Cover, End Caps & Mounting Clips - 1905-UTB by Ronnie Staver

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great product, only one somewhat minor issue

I bought this aluminum channel to hold and improve the look of red LED ribbon that will act as a flashing warning signal when a room overheats. The build is perfect and will suit our needs wonderfully. Along both sides of the channel are grooves so the channel can snap into the included mounting clips. Included are 20 plastic mounting clips that come with countersunk screws and also 20 end caps. Which means you could cut each 1 meter stick in half and have enough clips to mount the channel.My only concern is that the countersunk screws do not fit into the countersunk hole far enough. Less than 1 mm of the screw head protrudes from the countersunk hole, this is just enough to keep the channel from completely snapping in and staying in place.The price seems a little steep to me, but overall it's a good product and I would recommend it to anyone looking for channel to mount LED ribbon. Just have to pick up some smaller headed screws is all.UPDATE: Picked up the same screw type, just the next size down and it fits perfect, I believe it was a #6. I painted the channel black and it disappears into its surroundings.

Pros
  • perfect!
Cons
  • The end caps may be challenging to attach without damaging the channel, presenting a risk of damage
