I've been waiting on these little beauties to arrive for my light box project.

These are much better than the usual random flashing strips. I've made a short video to explain. I think they'll look well when hooked up.

What do you think??

Les, there`s lots on Ebay in all kinds of differents shapes & lengths...
One example here... http://www.ebay.com/itm/30cm-Auto...ash=item2a1c7f3a6b#ht_4270wt_1112

Very nice Sandman

I have used them on several occasions with a powersupply for decorative purposes, but do seem to have problems running them with my Blue Thunder, guessing due to the low voltage-output under load.
Looking forward to seing your setup, perhaps i only need another led-product

These ones are 30 cm long Miles, but they come in longer lengths as well.
