Re: LED strips exposed: your advice?
I would find better velcro. I have those strips and while you think the case is to keep water out, it's really there to keep you from damaging the circuit. Unprotected in a robot workshop I'd judge their life expectancy to be about 2 days. "Oops" is such an ugly word.
