Review on Efficiently Install LED Strip Lights With Litever 6-Pack Aluminum Channels - Trimless Square Design, Frosted Diffuser, And End Caps Included! by Justin Gomez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great Product - Perfect for under or in cabinets! Pay attention to sizes

Well designed product that really allows for a more elegant permanent solution to mounting LED lights.This is perfect for mounting LED strips under or in cabinets. I'm using to mount under cabinets for floor and counter-top lighting. Also used to replace an older light above the sink.They arrived with no burrs on the cut ends.Cutting them down to different lengths is easy enough but you will need a hacksaw, dremel, or similar. The plastic diffuser can be cut with scissors.This product has plastic clips, that the aluminum channel then snaps into. You screw the clips to the surface first, then snap the channel in. I prefer this method as opposed to the ones that have screw holes in the channel and screw directly where mounted. Using the clips allow you to get the LED strips exactly in the channel before mounting. (It also allows for fine tuning your cuts which is particularly useful if using corner brackets). The clips are a little harder to align, but if you clip the channel into the clips first and then hold everything where you want to mount it you can easily mark how the clips should be placed.Definitely pay attention to sizes as this not only effects the mounting of the lights inside the channel, but how the diffused light looks overall.The minimum channel width should be greater than the width of your LED strip.The depth of the channel (from the bottom to the diffusing cover) determines how the light will "look". a shallow channel will appear more spotted since the cover is closer to the LED's, and a deeper channel will appear more like a solid bar of light since the cover is further from the LED's.I would definitely recommend and buy again!

Pros
  • Channels
Cons
  • The end caps provided with this product may not provide the most secure fit, which could result in the LED lights falling out or becoming loose over time
