Odyssey LED Strip Lighting Kit from Aurora Deck Lighting
The Odyssey LED Strip Lighting Kit from Aurora Deck Lighting features a flat industrial grade LED fixture that measures only 1/8″ thick by 5/16″ wide, and hides easily in a 1/8″ saw curf or routered cut. According to the manufacturer, Odyssey lights can be used to create a dramatic curtain of light that shines down from under deck rails, steps, soffits, patio covers, gazebos or the underside of a deck. The long-lasting, tiny LED bulbs, in their chain, put out a beam of light with a 120˚ radius. An aluminum channel is also available in white, black and bronze color, housing the strip to be mounted directionally to any material. The Aurora Odyssey strip is code approved for exterior and interior applications. The Odyssey is designed to offer countless uses inside the home as well— helping to accent tray ceilings, kitchen cabinets, toe kicks, crown mouldings and soffits. With a momentary contact switch installed in the upper corner, the lights turn on when a door opens and off when closed. www.auroradecklighting.com or 800.603.3520.
