Sure! So, I'm currently overwhelmed with RGB LED strip wheels as it is right now, so they're from everywhere.
But, I've started to rely on 2 companies. One is Alitove, they have an Amazon store and an eBay store. Their a division of some large Chinese company, but all they do is make and sell LEDs - in all the usual formats. I've noticed that their strips seem to match the closest, no matter when you buy them - for me its a good sign. And their colors are really rich, especially their WS281x lights, just wish someone made a Z-Wave controller for the WS281x.
The other one is a SUPERNIGHT on Amazon. Don't know much about them, they appear to be a self-branded version of someones strips. Really good color reproduction. Though they are the ones that accidentally made me aware that you can buy an RGB light strip that is individual red, blue and green LEDs instead of the multichip 5050 packages we're used to lol.
As for power supplies, definitely recommend these guys - from 60 watt/5A, all the way up to 120 watt/12.5 amp.
So far, I've got a 60watt/5amp that's been running continuously for over a year at close to its max, with some bright cool white LEDs (Kitchen lighting), I've also got one of the 120w/12A supplies that's been running 24/7 for about 6 months now outside, running some WS2811 light strips. They are hard potted and stay really cool - I've had so many power supplies die trying to run a 10 meter length of white LEDs for any significant length of time.
In fact, I trust them enough that I'd almost mount them inside the wall next to the box, but I don't know if I could do it and still sleep at night.
So what I've been doing is using 4-gang old-work fiberglass boxes - 2 hour fire rated, they're pricey but you can but 2-3 or more 60watt supplies in a single one. I really wish they made these single-gang boxes with a 'pocket' in a larger size.
Honestly, it's overkill for sure - especially compared with what most elecchickens install things like this, from what I've seen. But I'd rather spend an extra $20 now rather than a fire later. Plus, if we ever sell out house, I don't have things like that hidden from people.
