Hi,

I've just started playing around with some LED strips from Hitlights and like them ok, but am wondering about other options. The ones I got will do a few chase patterns and let you make some colors of your own, but they don't do multiple colors in the strip itself or a chase pattern like that...all their chases change the entire strip. Can anyone suggest a company that makes affordable strips with more options?

Also, can anyone suggest good items to cover them with like something that lets the light shine through but diffuses it a bit?

How about better ways to attach them to a ceiling than with the sticky stuff on the back? Half the time with the Hitlights the sticky doesn't stay on the strip but instead comes off with the backing, and even when it stays on the strip it doesn't hold even an 18" strip to the bottom of a wooden cabinet.

Thank you for any help!
David

Hi David, I've used carpet tape in areas like this. Available at most hardware stores its a double sided tape you can cut to fit your application.
