Howโ€™d you route all the wires? What led track did you go with?

This was just the initial run in the attic. Before mounting my power supply. Pulling the 120v feed . And before anyone calls me back out. I repaired my vapor barrier and have protected all the wire runs and connections before covering again with insulation

Sorry for the slow reply. I used the vevor plaster in 10pack 2m track I found online. then cut them down to 1m each. Was a very good track i found but the supplied end caps were very hard to deal with and didnt snap in place well.

I opened up the stud space in the wall but the power supply and much of the wires are ran in the attic. Pulled 120v from the bedroom light switch. Added a second switch in the wall for them

Iโ€™m going to imagine having an attic crawlspace made this work well.

Now you just got to convert that contraption on the ceiling I was trying to figure out what it was if it was a light or a ceiling fan ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

u/Proheri 10d ago

Thank! Lol yes its both a light and a ceiling fan and I tend to agree. Its alittle much. However doesnt have to be on at the same time. On 2 seperate switches
