Title: 5V USB Led Strip
Post by: MarkyB on September 08, 2018, 06:55:02 pm

Hi to all,

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

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.

They work fine, Used them in the last bartop I built.
