Review on Onforu 16.4Ft LED Tape Light In 3000K Warm White - Dimmable And Flexible For Home, Kitchen, And Bedroom by Jonathan Self

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very bright, easy to use with the plug-in connection

I upgraded my pantry and wanted even lighting on each shelf. The top-down light just wouldn't cut it, so I used this around the inside door frame.It worked perfectly but I did need to buy a 90 degree kit, which was about $6 to go around the door. I also purchased an in-line motion sensor so the lights turn on when the door is opened, which was about $10.The only issue I have with this is the double-sided tape. It's holding now, but it took several attempts to get it to stay. The 90 degree corners would start to peel the strip away from the wall from it's weight, even though they are very light. I ended up using the provided clamps to keep the corners tight to the wall. The rest of the strip adhered without issue.Seriously, this is the icing on the cake for the pantry project. I often find myself opening the pantry door just to see how amazing these lights look and how great the additional motion sensor works.I forgot to mention, I didn't use the included in-line dimmer switch, and instead replaced it with the motion sensor. I can still add the dimmer switch, but I like how bright they are without it.Also, the 16' is a good amount to go around a standard door frame with about 2"from the actual frame. So some testing to see where you should make your cuts because I found that I actually had to remove a small 8" section at the start of the strip. It just worked better for fitting around the door. The strip terminates with a 2-wire piggy tail, which I cut off.Oh and one more thing. I bought these because they "starting"end of the strip had a standard terminator that was plug and play with the motion sensor I purchased. I could have just as well purchased one that had the clip, but I liked the idea of being able to just plug in.I would recommend these and will be buying these again for my next project.
