Not sure if there are "quality" LED strips that are cheaper. I see on Amazon I Can get like 30 feet for 15 bucks.
Anyone know much about these? Going to set up LED's for my fish tank and possibly computer desk. Possibly might even put them under the cabinets in the kitchen.
Thanks for the help in advance!

I found that one, but it's a little more than I wanted to spend for now.

First ones are 50.50 meaning they are bigger and brighter and 1 power adapter will power 2x 30ft leds strips.
seconds will work but not as bright and you'll need another kit to power more.

Ah damn, sounds good. I'll just get the first one then. Only a few dollar difference.
Thanks for the help.

Hey not trying to steal your thread or anything but does anyone know if there's a strip that runs purely off of a psu from a pc?
The bulky adapter and fat plug in just bugs me

Some use a sata cable, some use a pci-e slot
the ones he was buying were not for the pc.
