As I found out the Ikea Dioder series was discontinued and I still wanted to put LED-strips in my 2nd Vertex K8400 I bought the replacement series "Ledberg" LED-strips. These need a slightly bigger clips than the Dioder series did so I remixed H60's design to fit the "Ledberg" series. Also, the "new" 2017 series has only 6 LED's per strip, these are a bit brighter than the Dioder LED's btw as can be seen the picture.

A couple of drawbacks of the Ledberg series are:

  • There are only 3 strips in a package, but, the adapter allows for the connection of 4 strips. The adapter can supply 3 watts and the light strips use 6 x 0.06 watts = 0.36 Watts, so 4 strips only use 1.44 Watts, well within the limit. I observed no temperature change in the adapter running 4 strips.
  • These LED-strips do not include the short wires to connect the strips around corners. I choose to solder wires directly to the strips, though a bit of extra work this works fine! Using a wire of 5 cm or 2 inches for the Metric impaired will do nicely.
