I bought a blue set last week and I'm very impressed. Compared to other solutions I've seen recently they're excellent value for money.

Remote Control

Is it possible to control these lights on/off via remote control?

Hello.

The Ikea lights are not a bad budget solution. I find them to be a bit spotty in some installs.

I would recomend my own product in the power buys section, it costs a little more at £27 for the full kit (AVForums Price), but you get a much brighter spread of lights.

I will also be selling LED kits hopefully in a couple months, similar to the IKEA kits, but that comes with a remote, and allows you to change colours etc..

They look great, but your kit only includes 2 lighting strips, I would need four
