I would like to install some LED strip under one of the shelves in my workshop. For now, at least, it'll be plugged into a wall socket rather than hard wired. The driver will be mounted to the underside of the shelf along with the LED strip.
I've bought a suitable constant voltage driver (one of these) and I already have the LED strip. Wiring it up is not the issue. What I would like to know is what's the best way to make it tidy and safe? The problem as I see it is the mains cable (in particular) has no outer sheath and both ends will need strain relief.
My current thought is to get a small (plastic) project box and fit an IEC C14 socket for connection to the mains and one or more barrel connectors for connection to the LED strip. I've done this with other projects I've made and it works great. I can't help feeling this is an already solved problem though and there's probably something I could just buy.
