I've just been extremely busy with school, and I don't have the time to film and edit these videos, but I didn't want to make a quick one so you could see how I made my custom led lights for my display cases.

So there they are, part by this remote that I did show on a previous video.

Oh, but I am reworking the wiring on them due to moving into a new spot.

So I'm gonna be working on thes three over here, and I'll show you guys exactly what I did.

So these are the three case someone we working on today.

As you can see, the warring is loose back there, and each individual case, I have to running led strips or learn each show.

I have used zip ties and the little Mikey.

Uh, what little things called rubber band things and toe help secure them to each individual self.

But each show has has to running led strips because though, if I did before my set up, was the round dots appear on each shelf.

But as the Ikea ones aren't that powerful.

So what happens is you have all the light focus on top, but not any light.

Barely any light comes to the bottom of the show, so that didn't look really good.

I prefer a more love a white or a blue and a bluish tinge to my lights.

And plus they're expensive and I have so many cases.

So that also was another reason why I just decided to do my own.

And I wanted to give you guys a quick update.

I have decided to open up my own store online.

Right now, I've made a couple of different Gundam hats and T shirts.

If you guys want to check it out, a few for you to give it a look, arm giving any suggestions on what more items you'd like to see it give it, give it a look and let me know what you all think.

Some sort of the quality isn't the greatest on this video Northern microphone, because I didn't have to get rid of mine camera and my microphone to you pay for some bills because I'm still in school, Unfortunately, so yeah, I probably is that if this doesn't sound as good as my other videos, but because I am feeling this on my iPhone.

Um, I did pretty bad electrical work previously when I did these because I had no idea what I was doing.

Pretty much used just black electrical tape and just combine the wires.

But I'm gonna be taking this apart, and I'm gonna be sauntering each connection to have better electrical conviction.

But I did read online that soldering is better than just combining the wires.

So I'm gonna be sauntering each individual connection and they're all wired through the back on.

And then once I'm done with that, I'll show you guys how I powered up.

I should have done this for putting against the wall.

I don't know why I did, because it's a pain.

These cases are knocking over some gun jams.

So you can kind of see what it looks like back here on the other ones I did drove holes into the wood right here, but, um, yeah, let's do that again.

I mean, like, this one has a reflection, but yeah, right.

Third, you see the hole that's drilled right there.

So the wires come running down here, and they could just call me easily through right here, but he's got to go through the front door.

So I can't be drilling these pieces of wood, but, yes, this is what the back looks like.

I'm gonna be saw during these connections right here and then putting electrical tape over them.

But this is how they were previously were.

Um, so I'm fixing that up and connecting all these three together and then putting them into power supply, and I'll show you that in a second.

Now, one of you, the last step on dhe Pretty much this is the power supplying.

Um, I have this, um diffuser elderly controllers that way I can control the brightness from that end.

Use that remote to part of the morning off.

So I have that plugged into here and then this little thing I'm a female adaptor.

I don't know what this is called, but I put the led sh I would My gosh, I can't talk.

So I put the wiring into this thing and that's how it powers all of these guys up.

We don't mind that it's not good to have somebody plugged into one of these things I did get to So three are connected to this one here and then the other.

If you're connected to a it's completely separate power supply.

So I just ran the wire right into that spot.

And then these come with a little scurried here and uses little screwdriver Thio tighten it up, and that way it won't budge.

But that's pretty much what it should look like.

I'm so happy my fingers of sore, but it was well worth it.

So he had some minor casualties around here, you know, to see them kind of clock tumor.

Here's a quick review paper theory collected from when I was in Japan.

Once you collect all of these before you get to build this thing guy right here, um, and some myself.

So I hope this kind of helped everybody who, um messaged me and asked me how I put up the L E D's.

Um, the actual one of the ladies is pretty easy.

It's just a strip, and you connect the wiring to it.

The hard part is actually getting behind the cases and connecting all the wiring.

And like I said before, this is This can be controlled by the remote control, so it's pretty easy to turn him on and off.

Here I am by no means a professional electrician's or whatever their gold.

This was just my way from what I had searched Uncle goal on how to do L.

I think overall this cost would be I want to say maybe, like $80 for all the materials to power supplies.

I think I used, like, three rolls of led shrimps therefore remember and plus the wiring itself and the female adopters.

But I would have spent, I don't know, maybe around $400 if I would have done this by purchasing the Akita led strips because I wouldn't need to per case, I think they're like, $30 so that would have been extremely expensive.

My also do have two more cases coming in which I will have to do the led work on those again.

Those were the glass shows when we're gonna going in that corner and in the corner over there.

So I have a total of eight cases which will hopefully help them not look as cluttered.
