until now...

Some weeks ago I wired up the under-shelf lights in a wall unit we got
on eBay (it was previously wired with choc-block). The plugs and sockets
I used were quite light, but DS sticky tape didn't work for more than a
day or two.


DS tape is no good unless the surfaces are *flat* or flexible as you can't
get full contact.
That is why double sided foam will stick better as it fills the gaps.


Actually, it *was* DS foam!

I used light duty Velcro, and they haven't fallen down yet.


It fills the gaps just like foam tape does.


But in my case it stuck better...
