LED technology is getting better every day but 24v is still where the price point is for commercial grade chip sets
I mounted chip strings onto aluminium and then placed this behind the polycarbonate strips for a beam of light affect
The system is using a 12v to 24v step up invertor but as LED pull very little current this is tiny.
Went a little over kill on the LED front with 120 x per meter = 600x 2835 LED chips producing 2735 Lumens
My interior now looks like 2 x lightsabers left hanging by a Jedi so I installed a dimmer system which works really well from 0-2735 Lumens
Got to be different !
