If you saw a heat wave, would you wave back?

I try to center all of them right in the middle of each cabinet. The effect of the lights is really good, I think one strip per shelf is great.

These pics were taken today, so the shelves are not quite as bright when it's night time, but still great looking. The thing I love with them at night is they give all the statues a very cool moody look.

However, the other cool thing, is that one package comes with 4 strips. So, I actually decided to use that 4th strip on the very top of my cabinets to illuminate the remaining comiquettes I have.

I will take a pic to show you.

So, these are my comiquettes that I have actually chosen to display on the very top of my Bestas.

Like I said, the dioder light strips come with 4 strips to a pack, so I use three on the inside shelves and then use the 4th to illuminate the top. Looks really awesome as one big display.

Excellent NotherLad looks amazing I think thats what I'm going to do? Whats with everyone in this forum lately no one wants to show any pics on their light displays to help out???? I know there out there. Thanks for the great idea NorthernLad plus the diode are the cooler zeon type lights unlike the dull inredas!

Come on guys post some pic ideas will ya?

yes, it does help, thank you

Do you happen to know what is the tallest statue you can fit in there? How many inches?

Thanks.
