Flat form self adhesive? low voltage conductors

[RogerS]

I seem to remember seeing some sort of flat self-adhesive tape that had conductors embedded in for low voltage LEDs but may have misremembered as. I can’t find it.

I don't know about that Roger but you can buy rolls of LEd lights with self adhesive tape on the back and you can cut to size usualy at 100mm intervals, I've used it a few times and it's as cheap as chips, I have a part roll I connect up to a 12v battery for emergency lighting if we have a power cut. Low consumption and amazing amount of light.

Yes I’d seen those. The problem is that the missus wants under cupboard lighting in the kitchen. She did choose one but the design of the cupboards precludes that as we wanted to hide the lights behind some sort ,of edging. The Magnet salesman said why not run the cable down behind the cabinet as there is a gap behind it which on the face of it would have got us power to whichever lights she chooses.

But there isn’t a gap.

Not much help, but I got some from Lidl complete with transformers.
Wasn’t expecting them to last long but five years old now.
Taped under kitchen wall units as under cupboard lighting. Can’t see the point really but her majesty likes them and that’s all that matters.
I connected all the oddments together and just layed them randomly ontop of the fridge freezer for complimentary up lights

Probably doesn't help but I've fitted those under cabinets. You can but trunking with opaque inserts and just cut to length. Different shaped profiles and colours inc some you can rout into the timber so it's flush.

Probably not relevant, but I recently made about 10 Swift call players for the village Swift box initiative, and wanted to find a way to run the speaker conductors through a closed window. I couldn't find what I needed, so I made my own, using 2 lengths of 30mm clear packaging tape with two strips of copper tape sandwiched between. Seems to work well, but the speakers are only about 3W so probably only about 0.5 amps, although I reckon it'd take a fair bit more.
Not the neatest one I made - it's really a two person job, what with everything being so sticky.

Found it.

Woven conductive tape.
