5V USB Led Strip
« on: September 08, 2018, 06:55:02 pm »
Hi to all,

Would these be okay to use power wise in a bartop?

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/5V-100-500CM-USB-LED-STRIP-LIGHTS-TV-BACK-RGB-COLOUR-CHANGING-REMOTE-CONTROL/152777765185?hash=item239243b141:m:mRxXuf0WOfYsjnWoAMHtngQ

Thinking of using a power surge power strip with usb 5v to plug into.

Many Thanks for any help

Regards

Marc :-)

Don't see why not, those don't take much power and put off little heat.  Go for it.
