    Can I use a dimable COB LED strip without a dimmer?

    This is the COB LED strip light I am referring to. I am planning to use it as an up-light in a recessed aluminium channel + diffuser in my floating shelf. I would like to turn it off and on and prefer not to bother with a dimmer or remote. I have 220v supply next to each shelf so plan to use a...

    Recessed LED strip-light on top side of floating shelves

    Shelves are 2400mm long. The electrician lay 220v supply for each shelf, all controlled by one wall on/off light switch. About the COB LED strip, I don't really need a dimmer or a remote. Can I connect a dimmable LED strip without a dimmer switch or is it preferable to have a controller with a...

    Recessed LED strip-light on top side of floating shelves

    About the drivers, do I choose 12V or 24V ones? What make and model are recommended? I can burry it in the shelf (that is going to be tight) or in the wall, what is best practice?

    Recessed LED strip-light on top side of floating shelves

    Thanks. I looked it up extensively and like the example you posted the diffusers that I found are curved so slightly proud of the self surface. I'm looking for a flat diffuser and a chanel that is flush with the shelf.

    Recessed LED strip-light on top side of floating shelves

    I built floating shelves 44mm deep, and I have 220v supply adjacent to shelves. I'd like to install an LED strip in the top side of the shelf so I'd like the profile channel and diffuser to be completely flush with the surface of the shelf. I'd like the light to be uniform, namely that I don't...

    Recomended retailer for buying furniture grade pine for floating shelves

    The plan as foxhole suggested is to have a double batten at the back making up a 25x100mm piece which will take the brackets. I also plan to have perpendicular short pieces screwed with pocket holes to the front and to the back battens. The alternative is this...

    If I go for the MDF option than they will be hollow rather than solid. What alternative do you suggest?

    These are the brackets that support my existing solid pine shelves. They are more than adequate. I am replacing them with MDF and PAR batons glued and pinned because my existing solid pine shelves are twisted, not by much but visible never the less. Comments here are divided, some recommend...

    I decided to build shelves using 9mm MDF sandwich around 25mmx50mm baton frame. Re baton, would this option do? https://www.builderdepot.co.uk/25mm-x-50mm-planed-softwood-par-timber-2in-x-1in. This other option is a bit more expensive so wont be that much of a difference...

    If I want the shelf to be 45mm thickness, what baton size and MDF thickness would you recommend for a 2.4m long shelf that will be strong enough to carry plant pots?
