Hey all
I thought some of you might be interested in a off grid lighting solution I am using. With the cost of LEDs so low and the efficiency so high its a perfect way to add some light.

Looks great! I like the rustic wood design! I have propane lighting inside and have been slowly making more and more led lights for my place. They are so efficient and they don't give off the heat the propane lights do!

Love your videos!
What would you say the wattage is of the roll of LEDs? Where did you order from?
I would love to replace the candelabra sockets of a ceiling fan with something brighter and more energy efficient.
I have other uses/ideas too...

Thanks Cabincalls
The LEDs are 4watts per meter, so the roll is 20watts. I bought them on ebay, search for warm white LED strip.

So would you say that the whole roll is the equivalent of a 100 watt incandescent light bulb?

I would say the light output is very similar to a 100 watt bulb. maybe slightly more. It lights the room to a medium level and the table top is brightly lit.
