Would the combination of LED's + limit switch, taken as a whole, be considered a custom circuit? In other words, where do you define a custom circuit as starting and ending? Does it make a difference if it's a COTS LED strip, or individual LED's manually wired together (with appropriate resistors, of course)? If you define the system as two separate custom circuits, then it may be a problem. If it's just one custom circuit, then it's fine.
