I went with a 4-color strip from Jeff's website (am azon)
It has red, blue, green plus a warm white color. Rather than tap into the porch light, I drilled a hole in the rear of the trailer, that goes into a wardrobe, and wired it into 12 volt power from there. - icanonExplorerHere's a Installation done by one of the forum member.
- DutchmenSportExplorerWell, I don't know if these are LED, or just normal rope lights, probably just normal rope light, but I have no clue if they are LED or something ancient. I got them after Halloween a couple years ago. They are actually orange, but when turned on, they turn more red. Great for ambient light. We enjoy just laying them on the ground in different configurations, depending upon where and how we are camped.
They cost about $2.00 each after Halloween a week or so. I bought 6 sets and hook them all together. They are a lot of fun, and the darker it gets, the prettier they get!
It's just something to think about... no attaching to the camper this way. - dtappy3353ExplorerGordon...Jeff's who at Amazon? Thank you.
- Big_LoveExplorerI went with the red, blue, green WATERPROOF strips available on eBay or amazon (they come also in a thinner non-waterproofed version). Comes with a remote that gives you lots of interesting options, including "white" when all come on together.
I deleted the porch light, using its 12v lines to power the LEDs. If you put it in the usual location, under the awning, make sure that you clean the site with a good solvent (acetone or paint thinner) before installing. - Big_LoveExplorer

Jeffrey Preston "Jeff" Bezos is an American technology entrepreneur and investor. He is a major player in the growth of e-commerce as the founder and CEO of Amazon - Hornnumb2ExplorerMine coachman came with a strip under the awning but its so close to the top that if the awning is not out they don't do any good. I did add another strip lower so it would work with awning up and used a led wifi controller that connects to my iphone to control it. No losing the remote that way.

Same here setup here. Recommended and endorsed. $25 of fun. Just please be courteous in use. - dodge_guyExplorer III ordered mine off Amazon (Menards now has them too!). I put mine on last year and love them. I mounted them under the awning/gutter track. the hard part is figuring where to run the power to.
