Anti-glare plexi with Aimtrak LED strip
« on: November 23, 2013, 06:52:57 pm »
I have my Aimtrak LED strip mounted above my monitor in the wooden bezel. Can I put anti-glare plexi over this, or would it have to be clear plexi??

Thanks

I placed a piece of "smoke" tinted plexi over mine but just took off the plastic tinted cover of the LED strip.  It worked just fine

Cheers ABACABB. I'm guessing you were using the full unit? mine's just the pcb and leds. Sounding like this might work - just hoping any anti-glare doesn't diffuse the LEDs too much. :)

Yes, I am using the full unit with the tinted plastic over the LEDs. If you don't have that already, I'm sure you'll be just fine
