SIMPLE WALL LAMP

Send

This wall lamp gives a smooth and even illumination. This is achieved by the fact that light is reflected from external obstacles and scattered. Such a peculiar lamp can, if desired, be assembled in about 30 minutes, of course having everything at hand.
This wall light consists of only two C-shaped aluminum profiles. And LED strip with power supply.

I bought an aluminum profile at a hardware store.
A led strip ordered in china - aliexpress
Power supply ordered in china - aliexpress

Also, if you are planning to repeat my lamp, then you will need more glue based on epoxy resin.
So, let's begin. I chose the wall above the sofa. I took measurements and decided on a long backlight. The shape of the lamp was chosen arbitrarily. I decided to place the profile rulers at a short distance, so that you could just hang the lamp on two hooks sticking out on the sides of the wall that were left from the previous owners.

I decided to saw off several small parts of the profile with them and ensure this distance. I spread the epoxy glue, smeared the fastened sides with it and fixed it, leaving it to dry.

This was my first experience using epoxy glue, and it is very unsuccessful. It would be better if I took small screws with nuts ...
Okay, I glued profiles to each other. But when it came to sticking the LED strip, everything went the wrong way. As a result, from the back, I drilled a hole and inserted wooden caps that will hold the tape.

After completing the assembly, I hung the lamp, and hid the wire behind the curtain.
In this design, I took the tape in a protective insulated casing. But you can take the usual one, since low-voltage 12 V power is used, there is galvanic isolation by voltage in the power source.
You can also use the RGB LED strip with a remote control and turn on any color of lighting depending on your mood.
