Rainy Day Working On LED Lighting In The Tiny House O27

It was a rainy day so I worked indoors catching up on videos and wiring up some more LED lighting in my tiny house on wheels.

It rained all night and all day. I spent most of my time inside the tiny house working on videos. I have been behind since I started working on the tiny house and need to use rainy days like this to catch up.

I also finished soldering the LED strip lights. These are the 15 LED lights that come on a roll of tape which I got off ebay a while back. You can cut them to any desired length and solder connections as needed to string them together. This makes them perfect for my living room lighting. I cut three pieces to fit the three walls of my living room.

Then I soldered wires in between each piece to make a single rope of LEDs.

I drilled a hole in the ceiling of the living room, leading into the loft above. There I tapped into the heavy duty 6 gauge wire which connects to the battery bank and runs the length of the tiny cottage.

I hooked up a light switch and tested the LED lights with them just hanging there to make sure they work before properly mounting them.

They worked perfectly. So I attached them to the rails I had made for them the day before.

Now I have beautiful indirect LED lighting in my mobile tiny cottage.

This is turning out a be quite a budget, green tiny house on wheels.
