I’ve wanted to illuminate my kick plates for a long time, starting with my master bathroom, and rolling out to my secondary and kitchen

Finally started today, with a 100w 24v converter, and a gledopto ZigBee controller

Installation was easy, and the controller was quickly picked up. I previously installed a GFCI protected outlet under my sink, so I just plugged it into there.

I don’t have a motion sensor yet, so it’s just a timed automation:

Day: bright white, about 40% brightness Evening: warm white, about 20% brightness After 10: almoast amber, and about 1% brightness, just enough to pee by.

    Yea, my guess is just based on what the strip says (12+12 watts per meter)

    Only wattmeter I have is an Ikea ZigBee plug, which does draw reporting. Could use that and measure it’s wattage
