## Description

The LEDdrop Aluminum Channel System (U-16)What are LEDdrop aluminum channels?While the aluminum channels house and protect your LED strip lights from dust, hair and physical contact, the milky, oyster-white channel covers diffuse the harsh brightness and spotty intensity of the LED lights themselves. Our light-diffusing covers soften the 'spottiness' of LED strip lights, generating an overall more consistent and uniform light.Why would I want the U-16 model as opposed to the other models?: Just as our other channel models, the U-16 brings the same professional finish and modern aesthetic to your LED strip lights. The key difference, however, is that this U-16 model has a 16mm inner width. By comparison, the U-12 model has a 12mm inner width. Being slightly wider, the U-16 model can fit Philips Hue Lightstrips perfectly. Therefore, if your LED strip lights run wider (such as the second generation of Philips Hue Lightstrips), we suggest you use the U-16.Installation:(1) Stick the LED strip light's adhesive backing inside the LEDdrop channel, (2) slide on the diffuser cover, and (3) mount the channel whenever desired. Using the adhesive backside, stick the LED strip light into an LEDdrop channel. Then slide the channel cover into place: simply slide the end of a cover into the end of a channel. Once properly started, you can slide it all the way into place. To remove the cover, slide it out. It's that easy. For surface mounting the channels, steel mounting clips and screws are provided.What's in the box? 5x - LEDdrop aluminum channels (each 1m long) 5x - oyster white, light-diffusing channel covers 10x - end caps (5x with holes for electrical wiring/threading) 10x - steel mounting clips 20x - screws (to be used with mounting clips, if desired).Important notesLED strip lights are not included.

## Features

- Designed to fit Philips Hue Lightstrips (Gen 2). Accepts LED strip lights up to 16mm wide - perfect for the vast majority of LED strip lights on the market, including 3528, 5050 & 5630 LED strip types.
- Includes (10) end caps & (20) steel mounting clips & screws
- Pack of five (5) 1M/3.3ft segments — U-shape aluminum channel for recessed/embedded lighting installations
- Provides a modern aesthetic and a professional finish for lighting applications such as under-cabinet, under-counter, accent, backlighting and many more.
- Oyster white covers diffuse the light of LED flex/hard strip lights, creating an emanational "neon effect." And, because of the diminishing stickiness of most LED strip lights, install them once in LEDdrop channels instantly gives them the portability you need.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are these channels roomy enough that I could run speaker wire thru them as well as the hue strips?**
A: Yes, but it will require running that speaker wire on top of the LED strip (inside the channel) rather than on the side. Only around 2mm or 3mm of clearance will be available on the sides, in total, in the channel after installing the Philips Lightstrips. Height-wise, you've got plenty of room. Cheers, TreDropality LLC

**Q: Does this product need to be plugged in?**
A: No - this is a channel and cover for a light strip. The lightstrip (which probably does need to be plugged in) doesn't come with this.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ They fit the strips perfectly and were very easy to install
*by K***N on January 3, 2017*

I bought these aluminum channels for my philips hue 2nd gen light strips to mount under my kitchen cabinets. They fit the strips perfectly and were very easy to install. I had to cut a few of them to turn the corners of my cabinets and was able to do so with a hacksaw. Only item on the wishlist would be additional clips added to the package because it comes with 2 per channel and when you cut these only using one clip per piece may not be strong enough, otherwise no issues with number of clips if you do not need to cut them. I would recommend these to anyone looking for a wider channel due to the philips hue strip width or for just a great quality product.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid quality materials.
*by J***K on February 18, 2017*

Simple, solid product. Fit's my Phillips Hue strips perfectly. It's a great option if you running LEDs strips in a CONCEALED location. Good quality.The manufacturer needs to do two things to make this a home run:1) Include more than 2 mounting clips per section. 2 is just enough but not if you plan on cutting a section into two pieces for use (like in a corner).2) It would be nice if there was some sort of clip to connect sections. (Straight or corners)PS: Some other colors would be nice.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Made the Philips Hue lightstrip plus look like a really high end product
*by M***M on January 18, 2017*

Made the Philips Hue lightstrip plus look like a really high end product. Very lightweight, good finish. Everything fit as expected. One caveat...a bit difficult to cut.
