Hello from Oakland, CA
 

Hello renovators!

Like to introduce myself, my name is Sonia Chun, I own and operate an online business selling LED lighting. I won't go into all that yet as I'm not necessarily here to sell but get some insight on what contractors and DIYers are doing in renovations, but I do offer to the trade and volume discounts if anyone's interested.

Now off to read the forum!

Welcome to the forums, Sonia!

With the LED lighting industry just beginning to penetrate the mass market, there is no better time to be a retailer. What really interests me is the cut-your-own-length strip lighting. It seems to be very universal and adaptive.

Thank you Jeff, I appreciate the warm welcome! Yes, the LED strips /rope lights whatever you want to call them are super versatile. Many use them under kitchen cabinets, but another popular use is to run them behind crown molding that doesn't quite go flush with the ceiling. You get this nice glowy light that's hidden around a room, and the heat isnt a problem in confining it to such a small space.
