Brightest strip I've ever found

These dual color lights are incredibly bright. I connected them to the m5 controllers and installed them in a suitably sized aluminum duct. Installed from above and below, the lighting in my kitchen is beautiful. I like being able to match the color to the lamps in the room or provide brighter cold light for daytime projects. One of these lamps can light up the whole kitchen, that's how bright they are. You can use the controller to adjust the color and brightness. For the installation I ran 18 ga wire and soldered the lighting circuit. It wasn't an easy task. It took almost a day to set everything up. It wasn't the most convenient installation, I'd like a fast connection. But I couldn't find any other options to get this dimmable color. You are amazing. Well worth the time and effort, I think my install was top notch. The bulbs get hot in the drum, but once installed in the aluminum channel I don't find them to get much hotter than at full wattage. I had no problems with the glue. I would not apply any of these products directly to wood. Cupboards (even new ones) are naturally dusty. The channel offers cooling and a better adhesion surface. I even have lenses that cover the ground so no LED dots can be seen. It diffuses the light better. Overall installation was difficult due to the need for soldering, but the light output doesn't match the price. I looked at almost 10 times the price in parts. Thank you for taking the time.
