[Swansea Hackspace] LEDs strip lighting

[Graham Owens]

My father in law has done exactly this, but i am unable to confirm what
brand he used etc at the moment?  but he regularly tells my wife how bright
it is (apparently green is much brighter than the others, i spend my time
making postulations that it is an illusion and their eyes are just more
sensitive to green light [?])
