Replacing Indirect Lighting under ceiling accent wood panel - 05 Patriot

<< < (5/5)

Mike Shumack:
Your kit looks to be a little different than mine. I expect you could install the receiver unit up under the ceiling trim panel along with the lights (if the receiver is thin enough) - then you can do all your wiring in one place.
I put the receiver (power supply unit) in the pantry so I could split off there and run some led lights under the lower kitchen cabinets too.

Bill Lampkin:
The LED strips that I put in my cab area total about 14.5' in length. Once I ran the first strip, I had a pretty good voltage drop in that first 6+ feet of LEDs. Voltage at the end of the first strip dropped to 11.9 v. So I ran a parallel run of 22 ga wire from my 12v source to the start of the second LED strip (middle of cabinets behind windshield).

Here is the remote and receiver I used (15a!)
