LED light strip
I picked up a Dioder LED strip from IKEA:
http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/00119419/, according to which "Can be connected together (up to 4 pieces)". That suggest that using fewer than all four of the strips supplied is OK, but is it likely to have any effect on the equipment? Daniele |

Daniele As far as remember the wall wart supplied is a switch mode and presumably well regulated, strip wants a constant 12V, as long as PSU dosen`t drift up with lower loading everything is fine.

Following that link I see a picture which shows the classic blue-white LED effect. But the description says 2700K. These do not reconcile with each other! Have you got them working yet? What colour are they? -- Rod |

What colour are they? They don't seem particularly blue. They're much warmer than that picture suggests. Daniele |
