QUOTE(idoblu @ Sep 2 2015, 10:31 AM) nah, i feel lazy and am terrible at DIY. I will wait till something breaks then add more strips to it. dunno why after my reno, i feel so tired. i still got some minor stuff to clear up but feel so tired to carry on Don't worry. I can teach you ma. Come to worst, can get another new 1. You haven't settle everything ? Reno, shifting is freaking tired and mess. Once finish, you're lazy to touch it again.

QUOTE(idoblu @ Sep 2 2015, 10:43 AM) Still got some room. I think the box is too height. Prevent the light from stiking wider. Another idea is to add in some mirror reflective sheet on the 4 wall. If you add in some strip led, need to check the driver watt and present led running watt. Cincai add in will burn down the driver.

Once finish, you're lazy to touch it again. still got very very minor things like hiding my speaker wires. ive done the ikea thingy remember but the other end i havent finish and now darn lazy to continue. Must wait till bones straighten then boleh jalan again need to screw in my IP Cam too. Right now I just hang it there temporary. aiyoh everyday I have something on my mind to do for the next day but when tomorrow comes, I darn lazy to start engine regret getting that light. now i am using it without the cover which makes it a very expensive box with 3 strips of LED This post has been edited by idoblu: Sep 2 2015, 10:55 AM

I already have a led strip 5m long which is still in the box that i havent use. If swapping it out can work better, I will do that. But see how it goes. For now I will use it without the cover

QUOTE(tmc @ Sep 2 2015, 09:17 AM) You use world wide well-known brand or unknown china brand ? Just curious. I don't even know what brand is it. I bought it for RM 250 for 5 meters including the power transformer.
