I have some blue LED lights I purchased from GGG and I am trying to figure out the best way to mount them. I have some holes in my cabinet where I want the blue LED light to shine through. I placed some white light diffuser plastic over the holes and planned on simply shining the LED light into it from behind. However, the LED lights are about 3/4" away from the light diffuser plastic material and does not result in the light being diffused evenly that much. If I shine the LED light at a 90 degree angle from the white plastic then I see a round "hot-spot" of light instead of it being diffused at all, this is why I tried angling it .... which helped a bit, but still not very much.
My clear problem is that I am trying to mount the LED lights about 3/4" from the diffuser plastic material. If I simply mount the LED lights from about 5" away from the plastic then everything looks great. However, I do not have enough room to mount the LED lights about 5" away in my cabinet .... there is no real free room in there for this type of mounting.
My question is ...... does anything exist which I can place directly over the LED light which will really make the light diffuse in all directions ... perhaps a "cap" or something which can be placed over the LED light? If I could diffuse the light more coming directly from the LED light, then I might have a better time at this .....
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Hope this made sense .....
