This light kit is wired to a 9-volt battery connector so you can plug in a battery and go! But, I’ve also soldered in a resistor so it can optionally be hard-wired into a 12-volt DC dollhouse electrical system! Just cut off the battery connector and you are good to go. The strip itself has a self-adhesive strip on the back that you can use to attach the light directly to a wall or the ceiling of a room or room box.
I think these lights look best if they are mounted at a slight angle into the room. It lights up the items more evenly AND directs the UV light away from our eyes. See the drawing, below, for a simple mounting idea that can be added to the viewing side of a display so the light shines in. My black light fixtures all emit light at 395-400nm which is considered safe. However, I still recommend that you avoid looking directly into the lights.
Need a longer LED strip or a custom setup of several strips connected by wire to light up several rooms? Drop me a note and let me know what you need. I make these kits myself and would be happy to see if I can make what your need!
