Hi there I'm looking for advice on what best quality brands of reliable led strip lighting for kitchen cabinets with sticky back plus drivers & connectors. Look forward to hearing your replies because my experience of this led product hasn't been great but in this case I have to come up with something decent. Thanks again.
Maybe I just got lucky but I've had some cheap Chinese tape off ebay happily running in my kitchen and a friend's for about 4 years now. It's stuck to a strip of 2" wide aluminium tape as reflector and (rubbish) heatsink. One of the two just has a 12 V power supply, the other is a fairly long length so is driven from opposite ends with a constant-current supply so as to take out all the voltage drop along the strip and stop you having a dim end and a bright end. It's is a "high power" one being under-run for efficiency and long life, I think it's using about 2 A over 4 metres.
