Litever Aluminum Channel with Diffused PC Covers for LED Strip Lights
Why Aluminum Channel is Highly Recommended When Installing Flexible or Rigid LED Strip Lights ?
1. Aluminum channel system will definitely make the installation of your LED strips / tapes easier and looks professional.
2. The aluminum shell will work as the track but also the extra heat-sink to ensure the lifespan of your LED strips.
3. The diffused PC covers help to reduce light dots and light glaring on your LED strips and get quite soft and even LED light.
4. Wonderful for you to DIY your own under cabinet linear LED light or ceiling cove light, etc.
How to Creat a Spot-Free Lighting Effect with Proper Aluminum Channels (Diffused PC Covers) and LED Strips ?
1. The Density of Your LED Strip Lights.
You can understand it as “distance” between 2 LEDs on your LED strip.
If the LED strip you use is of quite big “distance” between 2 LEDs, (i.e, 30 LEDs per Meter LED strips ), no matter which aluminum channel you choose, it can NOT create spot-free lighting effect.
However, if you are using a LED strip with 120 LEDs/Meter, with most aluminum channels, (i.e, Litever LL-007-M,LL-007-A, LL-007-F, LL-007-G, LL-017-DS, etc), it can create perfect spot-free lighting effect.
2. Depth of the Aluminum Channel.
The deeper the aluminum channel, the easier to get spot-free lighting effect.
When using 60 LEDs/Meter LED strip, for most shallow aluminum channels, i.e, LL-007-F, LL-007-G, LL-007-M, the LED spots can be seen.
However, if you put the same 60 LEDs/Meter LED strip inside deeper aluminum channels, i.e, LL-007-A / LL-007-B / LL-007-MH, no LED spots at all.
3. Brightness of each LED.
The brighter the LED, the easier to get spot-free lighting effect.

My order didn’t come with the brackets or screws and also didn’t the order originally was sent to the wrong city so it ended up being considerably delayed.

For the price, it was actually slightly better than I expected. The aluminum channels and diffusers were well made, it came with all the appropriate mounting hardware, and it fit the 18mm wide Hue light strip as advertised. The diffusion is fine for my application, but if your bar will be visible, you may want to look elsewhere, as the individual LEDs are still clearly separate bright pinpoints. I used the supplied brackets to install two channels in a closet and they were super easy to install. Used command strips on a different run that is more visible (the clips don’t look great) and that worked great, too.

We used these for LED strip lights in our 80's house, small closet. I like the idea of the lights being in the channels instead of making contact with our clothes ~ I wont worry about starting a fire since we're using these. The channels are aluminum so cutting to length is pretty easy. The mounting brackets are metal and the channels snap into them very nicely. Plus we were very pleased they provided plenty of extra brackets. Unfortunately, the screws for the brackets are a little short, so we used our own. The brackets are only minimally visible after the channels are installed. The diffusion covers either slide in or snap in. Snapping is a little tough but once it's in there you're done. Saw no difference in the amount of light before and after installing the covers. Wish we had a better solution for how to transition around corners and between channel styles; we extended the diffusion covers to protect the strip lights there. Love the light in the closet!Note: We used a combination of these and the Litever Up-Down Channels (LL-020-WA) with the Minger (B07JQPVKPC) strip lights.

I purchased this for Philips Hue Plus light strips for an undercabinet application. The channel is the perfect size, good quality, easy enough to cut, and able to be VHB'ed to the bottom of the cabinet when I was too lazy to drill everything.The problem comes from the diffuser - it diffuses the light moderately, but you can still see individual LED reflections in the surface of a granite countertop. So, you lose ~25% of your light output for a marginal improvement in aesthetics. If I could do it again, I'd just get a clear material instead of the diffuse material.

I bought a package of these for installing Phillips hue LED lights in my kitchen and they worked great. The Phillips hue LED strip fits perfectly in these channels and my under cabinet lighting looks hardwired. My son installed an electrical outlet inside one of my cabinets so you see no plugs. Then attached these channels to the inside of my cabinet underneath. Drilled a small hole in my cabinet for the LED strip to fit through and then install the strip into these channels. Worked great!

It is a simple, light weight LED holder with diffuser cover. I wanted to diffuse the LED light strip a little more for my under cabinet lights. It did the job and happy with it.It fits perfectly with the width of the Philips hue indoor light strips at 16mm. They are 39-3/8” long, which fits the hue light strip 40” extension well.Easy to cut down to custom lengths as well.

I spent a long time looking for an LED light strip diffuser that would fit the wider LED lights for the Philip Hie lights. This fit my Hue lights perfectly with a solid and sturdy aluminum frame with an opaque white plastic lens to softly diffuse the light. It came with all the screws, brackets and end caps needed to add under cabinet lighting to my entire kitchen. These were also easy to cut with a small hacksaw for the aluminum frame and I used a sharp scissor to cut the diffuser.This allowed for a more secure install of my light strips and it made for a neat and professional appearance.
