REDUCE EYE STRAIN - With increasing screen time, eyestrain and headaches have become more and more common. The bias lighting save your eyes and prevent unwanted headaches in both children and adults by reducing the contrast between the brightness of the TV and the surrounding room.
ADVANTAGE - High quality and brightness leds, control with RF remote, the remote control distance is up to 49ft, and you don’t need to point at the led controller while you control. The tv light strip use orginal 3M adhesive backing tape, it is very thick and sticky, and will not fall off easily
USB POWERED - DC 5V 3A, powered by USB, can be plugged into TV, TV BOX, USB Hub, Computer, Car etc, please note for a small part TV USB port might not supply enough power, or you can simply use 5V 2A-5A universal USB wall charger to power instead.

This is one of the best tutorials that I've seen. You were very detailed, and you showed every single step. There was also no background music to interfere with the tutorials. Excellent job!
Nice video! Future soldering tip... add solder to the pads (and tin the wire) then connect the wire to the pad.
I know this video is 2 years old but this was exactly what I was looking for lol. Perfect video and perfect timing!
I’ll never do this I just like watching you do it looks great man
Haha I hope you do it or something similar in the future! It's a great learning lesson and its really fun. Thank you so much! I really appreicate your feedback & support. Happy new year to you & your family!🙂 Stay tuned
😅😅😅 same thing bro
Awesome video. I don't know anything about electrical stuff, and have always wondered how people set up cabinet lighting without a ton of wires everywhere. You did a really good job of showing the steps in a simple and clear manner.
You turned your bookshelf into a whole concert. Awesome
Thank you putting together such a well-thought-out and instructive video on this subject. And thanks for providing links-everything was very useful!
Well shot. Perfectly explained. Great video!
tip for the future if you still do this stuff years later, pre-tin your cables before you solder them, makes your job a million times easier without all the strands everywhere. I mod game consoles and use different types of wire, aaalways pre tin.
Love this. I plan to do something similar on a bookshelf I plan to get for displaying my statues of my favorite comic book characters. I also plan to add LEDs to my Arcade1Up cabinets. This showed me exactly what I need to to know to do it.
How'd the project go?
JMT it's stunning !!! As always well explained. I understand that whoever will decide to install these lights should have knowledge of doing so. Safety first. Thanks for sharing. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you so much! So glad you found the project stunning🙂 Always best to do a little bit of research before starting a new project. Thank you for watching and for your support. You're the best!
I absolutely LOVE this video. Jumperman is really for the people!
Yes!!! Vote for me🙂 Led lights for all!
great video. Very polished DIY. I will be doing this with my media cabinet where I store my vinyl collection.
"its the moment of truth" *ad*
Hahaha! 🙈🙈🙈
and we fall for it every single time
Great video. I'll be using it to help in my project. Question though...my setup will be roughly the size of four of the units you're using. Can I have one remote control as many as 3 or 4 controllers? Thanks!
You make the soldering look so easy
Thanks Jumper! Excellent!
Great video! Thanks for the help.
Nicely explained! Subscribed…!!!
Awesome tutorial. Thanks!! Gonna use this to set up uv strip lights for my uranium glass collection
great job man, this is exactly what I was looking for
Great vid. Is it better to run the lights across the front middle or back. My shelf doesn't really have a lip to hide them so I was thinking middle or back.
Very clear instructions. You are goated. Thank you!
Best tutorial, you really save my day, bro. Love you!
This looks amazing... I am going to do this for my son but for a gaming station for retro consoles and new consoles too... cheers for the vid 😁
How did it turn out I'm about to do the same for my game collection
Best tutorial No need fancy background music Like the video already Thanks for the tutorial If you add wifi connection.. You can change color or using alexa to change it
What brand/model led strip did you use? Where can i buy the same one?
wow bro this is so cool
Great idea for my collection displays. 👍
100%! Would look amazing for a display case
What shelves are those would go perfect in my cyber lab
Are there any other color led strips more simpler to install on bookshelves?
Good job man!!
Nice tut. So I have to drill a hole if I want to through
Nice video, very detailed. Are you using 1 remote to control both LED strip kits? Or did you have just 1 kit that you separated/soldered to cover the linear feet of both shelves and just need 1 remote to control all the shelves? Thank you!
Thank you! I'm using 1 remote to control both kits and there's nothing special you need to do for it to work that way. Thanks for watching!
Thumbs up on the video AND for the ad placement. "And now for the moment of truth" ...BOOM!...ad placement. Lol
LoL on the wiring definitely some hvac there. wiring up a zone board to dampers color code everything
THANK YOU
WILD!!✨✨✨
Wild thornberrys! Thank you for your feedback🙏🙂
Good Job
Having a question whether the connection is series or parallel👍??
Exactly what I was looking for............ thanks......... Liked and sub'd.........
Awesome! Thank you, I really appreicate your support & feedback! Sending blessings your way from NYC
Do you know if its fine to run multiple T clips to connect LED strips with a extension cable running down the side?
Sure, I don't see an issue. Every light strip has its own specifications as to how many you could connect but you'll be okay👍 Your electrical is protected by a circuit breaker worst comes to worst🙂 Thanks for watching! Stay tuned for new videos
Am I right in thinking if you have connecting "clamps" you don't need to solder ?
Correct. Thanks for watching!

Good education diy
They make quick connectors, no soldering required
This is dope but incredibly extra lol
Cool man
Thank you so much John! Your feedback is greatly appreicated. These lights completely transformed my living room🙂 Sending blessings your way from NYC!
@@JumpermanTech next project is the van! You'll love it. I put under shelf lighting in my van and when I'm working when it's dark out it makes all the difference.
@@jonnymac31 That is an absolutely great idea & I actually installed these same lights in my work van! It really does make all the difference. I put 3 rows of lights and made a video on it. I absolutely love it! Thanks man! Link to van led light installation🙂 kzhead.info/sun/m6WjdNetloVnl6M/bejne.html
@@jonnymac31 I'm an HVAC/R tech 🙂
bro get HEAT SHRINK for those connections!!
Disco bookshelves. Helpful video, but the dancing changing color program is too much -- for books and knick knacks. Thamk you, This video helped me visualize my project (just white dimmable bookshelf lighting)
I hope the leaners have been addressed by now.
Yeah, I'm not doing all that. I'm going to stick the lights to the back of the billy bookcase frames in a continuous loop so they don't show but glow, then keep the bookcases an inch from the wall, but still screw them in place and hope for the best.
Have you thought about using join screws to connect the shelves? The gap sets off my ocd. You could have also been able to run 3 long rows instead of 6.
I just noticed you would have to cut the lip at the top side of each shelf in order to get it flush which is why I'm guessing you skipped it
Is there a way i can do this without having to solder?
Yes, there are clips you can buy for LED strips that connect them together. Like these here a.co/d/aKuJkWA
Or these if you want a setup like the video a.co/d/932U4L7
Pre-soldering the wire is what every electrician learns during the apprenticeship^^ But it's a good advice for every non-electrician out there
60/40 solder/ 40/60 I can't remember exactly which will make your life exponentially easier. You won't have any need for the Flux or any of that jazz. On projects like these I've never even bothered with it. Look for a better solder and your projects will go much faster and smoother. Pre-tin the strips and pre-tin the wires. You'll be golden, pony boy.
Most soldier has already got flux in it
That definetly makes things faster & cleaner! Thanks for the tip. Next time I will buy that type🙂 Appreicate the feedback! Have a great day
Flux cleans the metal…
I need help with my led lights ‼️‼️🤦🏽♂️
Whats up? Thanks for watching!
Why add those wires? You could have used connectors and saved a lot time and effort.
i just dont see why ikea dont make lighting as an option
lol you can buy premade connectors on amazon. why on earth would you need to do it this way? Also, why on earth would you buy the one with protective coating for more money when you can buy the cheaper ones to achieve the same thing?
this is so much work... i feel defeated. SOLDERING WHAT?!
Flux friend, flux
Why are you soldering the wires ? 🙄
That's a lot of work when you can just buy the clip connectors with and without wires.
I got the clips except they came in the wrong size for the 10mm lights I had. Although the clips save a ton of time, they get loose over time and need to be adjusted. I've used similar clips for 90 degree turns. Soldering does take much longer but it lasts much longer. Thanks for the input and for watching! Happy holidays🙂
Can I ask both of you what you mean by “clips?” Also, what size/type of wiring did you use for this? Thanks!!
They are called solderless led clip connectors.
This is electrician's sh#t run
Sorry man but you are teaching very bad soldering techniques to your viewers. Those are poor connections, no pre-tinning on the pads, and your exposed wires are cut too long. Everything might have worked this time but either you got lucky or they are going fail eventually. Please realize that I mean this as constructive criticism and not an insult.
My thoughts exactly
screw soldiering. nope...not doing it. You couldnt pay me money to do that. F that. Id rather clean up vomit they be asked to soldier anything.
With headphones on I can hear every single tiny noise your mouth makes and its driving me insane.
Can't see the titles of the books. This is a fail.
