These strip lights are great and inexpensive and you can add an infinite amount of strips to the one power source or your reciever. But i was dissapointed when they arrived because I thought they were multi coloured, but they were all white. So a small piece of coloured heat shrink does the job lovely jubbly, the use of a heat gun is advised as a naked flame maybe too much heat for the strip......keep night flying

Hey bfc- another trick that works real well is to cover the white led strips with colored packing tape. Try it. Your gonna like it

Yes Andre you do lose a slight amount of light but I have had no sight issues at all they are still very bright
+1 for the coloured packing tape
