Light Joist
Mounting LEDS on the ceiling via magnets
Fluorescent tubes of the future
I was in need to light my shop with 2 meter long light profiles and came up with these designs. They have in- and out-ports for 24V Power, a switch to toggle each segment and have a magnetic base for easy mount and dismount for various sitations. I build 4 of those and mounted them to my ceiling rail system.
