This kit or one like it is almost essential when installing your first LED light strips. I ended up using all but 1 jumper wire and the Y-splitter. Definitely glad I had the forethought to buy this when I grabbed the light strips.
Note: The strips can be a REAL pain in the butt when trying to "slide into the extension/jumper" wires.
- I found out LEAVE THE BACKING ON (if your LED strip has an adhesive back)!
- Ensure the strip is under the guide tabs on each side of the receiving part of the jumper
- Use even pressure on the srtip sliding down, straight (gently yet with pressure) if the strip bends, no worries its
fine. Just don't make it look like a piece of foil and you should be fine.
- This is the tedious and most annoying part of a clean install, second only to wire routing/hiding.
Definitely buying another kit, just a bigger and more diverse one, as the next project on the Honey Do List requires it.
