We've installed simple warm white LED strip at one section of G1:

The whole room has really nice grove around the perimeter.
It would be super-cool to install addressable RGB strip around the room
The room is 9.1 x 4.2m and requires 26.6meters of the strip.
at price £21.45 per 10m:

We need £63.49 for all the strip

It also needs beefy 5V power supply at about 40A+ to run it

[[http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/222288584678|60A power supply - £17]]


Plus Wires

So we need about £103 to put really cool RGB lights all around!

Pledged enough to start purchasing! :)

At the moment we are £80.41 down.

We received the strips and waiting for the power supply.
