Default LED Filaments

I'm trying to put together a project for my screened in porch. I would
like to hang some fancy wine bottles from the ceiling at various
heights. I would like them lit, so using the LED filament strips would
be nice touch. The LED filament strip could be inserted from the top
open end of the bottle. I've found them in 2 places, ALI Express and
Amazon. ALI was cheapest at .91 each strip. I've done a lot of Googling
and that's all I've come up with, except for lots of link to LED
filament bulbs, which I really don't want. I've always hesitated from
ordering direct from Europe or Asia. Anyone have any experiences with
ALI? I know they were just in the news, I think something about going
public or some other financial thing (I'm an engineering nerd, so excuse
my lack of financial knowledge). Also, anyone here play with these LED
filament strips? Any 1st hand info would be great.


Are you talking about the LED strip lights? The flat tape with LED's
spaced along it?

If so, searching for LED tape will get you a ton of sources.

LeeValley sells a very nice system...bit pricey though, as are most
things LeeValley...but top quality.

They also sell LED rope light, in case that's what your after...spaced
LEDs in a clear plastic tube.
