i thought this would be a single strip..do you recommend overlapping the strips for install so its seemless and there is no spacing in the strips?

The instruction sheet that comes with the strips says to overlap them, i overlapped mine by 1/4" and i had one complete strip left after doing all 4 tires. just make sure to clean the previous strip before overlaying the next one

only the cheap super thin grade reflective comes in one straight roll that you have to bend in a circle. as for curved high intensity grade, it would be impossible to install if it's just one big ring. so they come in curved short strips.you can be creative to apply them however you want for whatever desired look. you can even cut them up to apply in dashes.or overlap to give it the one ring look. they are designed so you can achieve this. it says it in the sheet that came with it. you can overlap by no more than 1/4". the triangle patterns make it hard to tell where they connect.the desired look is a preference.-customTAYLOR33 only the cheap super thin grade reflective comes in one straight roll that you have to bend in a circle. as for curved high intensity grade, it would be impossible to install if it's just one big ring. so they come in curved short strips.you can be creative to apply them however you want for whatever desired look. you can even cut them up to apply in dashes.or overlap to give it the one ring look. they are designed so you can achieve this. it says it in the sheet that came with it. you can overlap by no more than 1/4". the triangle... » Read More only the cheap super thin grade reflective comes in one straight roll that you have to bend in a circle. as for curved high intensity grade, it would be impossible to install if it's just one big ring. so they come in curved short strips.you can be creative to apply them however you want for whatever desired look. you can even cut them up to apply in dashes.or overlap to give it the one ring look. they are designed so you can achieve this. it says it in the sheet that came with it. you can overlap by no more than 1/4". the triangle patterns make it hard to tell where they connect.the desired look is a preference.-customTAYLOR33 « Show Less

Yes I would recommend over lapping them by 1/4 inch and when the 6th strip is being put on (6 strips per side) you will have about an inch left over to overlap. Just make sure you stay on the rim and don't start going too high or too low on the rim

The lengths of the segments are such that if not overlapped would require cutting. That is not recommended due to injection of unnecessary additional handling of the strips with no benefit in the finished product. As noted above, a single strip would require bending of a straight reflector tape which, unless it is stretchy, will result in kinks. Stretchiness does not lend itself to high reflectivity, so the segments that are not bent, are the best solution.

I did. Due to the double up when overlapping you notice at certain angles the reflection is becomes a bit wonky. But still looks good and serves it's purpose (To help improve my visibility).

For my bike at least (2008 CBR1000) I had a couple of extra strips so overlapping shouldn't be a problem. I would only recommend to overlap a little bit though (just in case)!

Having it as a single strip would not be ideal because it would require removal of the tires instead of simply rotating. Overlap them just a little bit when applying and take your time.

Yes, They have separate design each others. Not overlap that plates. hopefully, this is helping you.

that's very odd, why do you want to installed like that. i think you can if you fabricate a design with two or more pulley. I think is easier and simple with a normal installation. if you still want to do it your way as you say let us know please. thanks

No, they're two different style light strips.the only way would be to cut the ends and soldier the together..that's what I did.

We did not install over existing insulation. We used this in the upstairs of our house that is just being finished. Yes, we overlapped strips where needed by about 2" just with staples.

This may not help, so forgive me. I haven't tried the deco strip, but I'm installing an iPad rack like yours and am adding a block of wood to the underside of the cabinet's bottom shelf. It won't show as the doors of the cabinets extend a bit beyond the bottom shelf to hide the undercabinet lighting. There is room enough for both. Good luck!

I don't have a issue. But I did anchor it in place so I don't move it myself while I'm working at my desk. I used clear 3M command strips in each corner. I can't really tell they're there.

Yes, standard width of *most* strips is 3/8" but for installation purposes if you are using a dado, it should be made 1/2" to accommodate any strip connectors, as they run just shy of a 1/2" in width.

Yes, 1 box should do the job. Just follow the instructions including overlapping the pieces. Also, there is no mess.

You can put up to 2 (maybe3) together depending on the power supply you are using. After that you must use a small amplifier for each of 2 more strips. (see: http://www.superbrightleds.com/moreinfo/led-strips-and-bars/mrgb-a4-mini-rgb-amplifier/1089/2587/?utm_source=googlebase&utm;_medium=base&utm;_content=MRGB-A4&utm;_campaign=GoogleBaseChild&gclid;=CKzD_5-r7boCFURp7AodJHYA3w )

Looks to me like they are spaced just a teensy over an inch apart. Hope this helps.

I have ordered this item but have not had time to do the install yet. I will be following this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tv2Uq2oiFBAHope this helps! - Tony

Hi, This really very easy to install, it uses double sided tape. It comes with and installation instructions and template. I can email or fax you a copy of the instructions. regards,Jef

Nooooo! I only put maybe 8 total per slot; 4 per side. I would just use more than one slot, or switch to another kind of holder.

No, one strip is plenty, have one on my 55, and one on my 70. And for me, just a single strip per TV works great.

No. One is all that is required. If you install one on each side, you will have problems aligning them so they work in sync.
