@Isaac Ostrom good stuff . what your email ? Could i have the parts numbers too.

The video was great but it would have been AWESOME if you would have linked all of the materials.

Amazing. Thanks for taking spending your time and money on the materials to do these mock ups.

I was looking to see if anyone had done this in just this type of application and your video was exactly what I was looking for!! That is a really great application done in an easy and aesthetically pleasing way. Great vid production as well! No filler all killer advice!

As a bathroom remodeled Ive been considering making this my new norm, or at least on the high dollar jobs. No excuse to why I haven't yet; simple, cost effective, and stunning results. Beautiful job man!

Where'd you pick up the driver?

Brilliant idea. I'm definitely going to use this idea in my bathroom remodels. Thank you for sharing.

I won’t lie. I am damn impressed! Love the videos dude!👍🏼

Great Video. Thank you for instructions for all us Installers, Designers, and DIYers!

I like how if the strip fails in the future you can pull it out and re-solder a new piece. Thank you.

YES, KICK IT UP A NOTCH! Perfect, classy addition to one of our bathrooms, thanks!

I know it seems simple and easy to do when you explain thoroughly but you probably had to experienced some hits and misses before you perfected it. I really really appreciated your video and your willingness to share your knowledge. Keep up the good work and God bless.

Great idea, product, and even better instructions. I can't wait to start doing these for my customers!

Just a side note, make sure the wire you use is CL rated for the in-wall installations.

Great idea and awesome trick with the profile encapsulating the LED light strip 👍

This honestly an awesome idea. I’m thanks for this I’m going to do it in my next shower build

That's awesome I never done it that way. Very clever!!! I do this same thing with crown molding in bedrooms and spaces people want an Ambien lighting.

Brilliant idea!! I love custom ideas. Thank you for that!!

Genius bro on using the Schlüter to house the lighting!!

This looks great only thing you could add is a Lexan diffuser, so you don’t see see the LED dots.

Very cool! I'm going to try this in our latest spec home. Thanks for the great ideas!

Loved Issac's idea about LED in shower niche. Next week begins my remodeling our shower from plastic/fiberglass to 600mm x 600mm Calcutta porcelain, just unloaded 24 tiles over 350 lbs from wood skid in front of garage and moved to bathroom area. I purchased from Creative Lighting Solutions an LED flex strip using IP68 LEDSs-RGB . IP68 are completely water proof and RGB means lights can be controlled to be red, green or blue. This strip will go into notch as you did in the video, also I purchased WiFi switch and inverter AC 120 to 12 volt dc. I am now trying to find a 12 volt LED RGB IP68 shower ceiling light 3-4 inch diameter. any readers have suggestions.

This is great! I will show to my contractor. He was very reluctant to do this, so I believe this will help.

That my friend is really cool, I bet I know a good handful of folks that would love this. Starting with my daughter.

Exactly what I was looking for. I was going to buy the waterproof LED light bars but getting the correct size was an issue. This install is clean looking and you don't lose any height.

Thank you very much ,as I was going to drill three small holes and install three single 5mm leds in a 26” long niche top, but luckily I seen your idea in time . So instead , now I’m going with a tri coloured led strip with an rf remote so I can change the brightness and colour . And yes the electronics are in the basement under the bathroom , not located in an area I can’t get access too. Using that profile is a fantastic idea imo

absolutely next level . i love it.

Amazing work. Really thankful for what you are doing for our industry! Blessing and Favor over you and you company.

Just seeing your Video now thanks for showing us how you installed the lights I'm adding this to my Mom's bathroom when I remodel it soon... Thank you from Colorado

Gracias por la ayuda!! Estoy haciendo uno en mi baño y tu video es de gran ayuda. Saludos desde Buenos Aires!

This video is awesome! Such a simple system for something i have been wanting to do for a long time!

I retro fitted a kitchen fluorescent light with schlutter backed led strips as a heat sink. Good stuff. Get a good supply to feed it.

This is perfect what i'm looking for

Amazing idea. Thanks so much, have exact same setup

Good idea Isaac! I'm gonna do this in my bath!

Great video, answers a lot of questions. Thanks.

Bright idea 😎 (pun intended) . Looks very nice. I’m gonna do it on the next job! Thanks man!

Most DIY lighting stuff that I have seen for permanent fixture applications such as this use blocks of polished acrylic glued/sealed in place, with the led strip hidden on the other side. The acrylic diffuses the light so it all looks smooth, and also makes it so that the structure can stay in-tact while the led’s can later be replaced if needed. So, in this example, instead of running the led strip through the side of the niche, you would instead put like a 1”x1”x8” polished acrylic block up into the top back of the niche so that the top of the block is sticking up through the niche. You’d then glue/seal it in place. Then you would would stick the led strip to the top of the block so that it is shining down through the block and into the niche. Preferably, there would be an access panel on the other side of the wall to change out the led’s if the ever burn out. Then you would have a permanent and sealed structure in the shower itself, with no electrical components tied to it, while also having it both lighted and accessible for maintenance. The same methodology could be use for other cases as well, such as an acrylic shelf within the niche with the acrylic sticking through the sides of the niche into the wall and the led’s being on both sides shining into the shelf so it has a soft lighted glow, in a lighted acrylic chair rail, etc. Try KZread’ing “led acrylic” or something like that for ideas. There’s also fiber optics that some very high end contractors use, with thick fiber optic cords that split into like a hundred that they then place into concrete work, with a thing in the attic that shines light into it through rotating diffuser lenses, so that it looks like stars are twinkling in the concrete when it’s turned on. I watch too much KZread lol

So the acylic block pentrate through the shower niche and you just caulk all around it to make it waterproof?

Been looking for this! Great creativity with the Schluter profile.

Thanks for taking the time and showings us new instalar cool tips like this

Beautiful idea!

Great job. Nice instruction and sweet idea. Thanks.

I recognize the strip LED from Ecolocity in Vegas. Great product. Great idea That particular niche would need a shelf and a clear glass shelf so the light shines thru.

Dude your awesome. I’m an electrician and am remodeling our bathrooms now. I’ve come across the lighted niche only on pintrest from my wife getting ideas and I didn’t really know how i was going to do it. My first thought was to get a track with a lense from WAC lighting and use the led strip in that but the whole WEDI thing is pretty awesome and I will do that

Awesome vid. Im going to try that technique. been watching some of your vids lately and think its time to subscribe. Also, those lutron diva mag dimmers are awesome, i have like 10 in my home.

Nice idea... I adore LED lights, but hadn't considered them in showers before.... until now : )

Thanks for all your hard work it's paying of we love it I do tile and I've gotten much better because of what you do on this chanel

That’s an awesome way of doing it. My wife and I own a bathroom remodel business in NH, she does the design and I do the work. We always look for ways to separate ourselves from everyone else. Seeing you have a successful bathroom remodel business gives us hope for growth. The light in the niche is popular in Europe but not so much here. I would love to know about how to price something like this out for my clits. Does not seam like the components are too expensive, but the work works sick!

Awesome Idea. Although I never needed a light to find my soap in the shower before. I am going to do this in the linen closet behind the door jam trim to find my soap in on the closet shelving.

awesome idea great job i'am a newbie with all thing s tile, i have built a 48 x 60 box using 2 x 6's, then a plywood bottom made a center drain i just have to try floating a mock up shower pan you have helped tremendously, also i have chosen to use laticrete hydroban membrane ect.....

So helpful!! Thank you!

That's really cool.

Intriguing stuff, never seen some of the stuff I’ve seen on your channel before

Nice touch.

I never thought of using the shluter profile , great idea . In my case I was going to install 3 separate - 5mm leds , mainly as a night light , but this idea is tempting also. Seeing as I could use RBG and a controller to choose the colour and brightness , I think I’m going with your idea .

@YannisFyssas

Жыл бұрын

The problem with using RBG is that you need more wires inside the wall, and more soldering on the strip itself. The solder points and the strip are the weakest point so when they fail, it will be difficult to replace teh LED strip. Using non coloured LEDs simplifies this as there are only two solder points and less likely to fail.

@@YannisFyssas you also dont need to solder. They make water tight connectors for this purpose, they snap into place like some other connectors used for romex. just smaller. Then its not a permanent connection, and if you need to change it out its easy peasy.

Amazon sells a channel that is the same as the Schluter but without the tile/grout part. They also sell diffusers so you dont see the hot spots on the wall or whatever you are installing them with. KZread "DIY RGB diffuser" and youll find what im talking about. The tile stuff s great for this purpose but If you wanted to do something you arent using grout with, say a ceiling line accent, the amazon channels can be fixed with a screw under the rgb strip and diffuser so as not to be see.

Thanks for sharing

Very unique idea man!

you da man Isaac

Thanx for this video its really helpful

Nice detail. I would also add a heat shrink tube over the connection for extra peace of mind. Easy way to add a little more profit.

Nice job ostrom 👍

Hey appreciate the share

Hello. Thank you for the video. It looks so good. My wife and I have a bathroom remodel business in NH and love to try different things with our builds. Can you show me how to trimmed out your niche? I hate the bullnose, and Schluter is pain in the a$$ to get right. Appreciate it. Misha.

Thanks brother very helpfull

i've got a dark shower to tile, but this will punch it up! i'll put the transformer in the furnace space.

Love it

Great video

I used fiber optic setup in a solid slab shower. It has zero power at the light source. The light box is located in a closet. Added touch plates using antique brass struncion embedded in wall. It’s pretty trick. You can use different lighting modes, one syncs to any music via dmx technology. It just “ hears” any musical beat and pulses and changes colors. Or it can just be warm light, or any color.

Dope!

this loooks great, im building a shower in my house right now and im doing the same thing, 6 foot niche, can you send me the link for the parts you used? ideally i would like an rgbw strip thats dimmable since it would be powered from a dimmer switch for the shower. thanks

Thanks for the video ! I'm learning lots from you, I also like you don't ask for monetary contribution for your vedeos.

Nice work

This is so awesome! I will for sure be trying this! Where do you get that transformer deal?

Thank you

Very nice. Pre-soldering is called tinning. Use flux.

I would like to see you to do a video with one of those cool grout machines.

Thanks for the video! Do you have a amazon link to the Magnetic dimmable driver? Thanks!

For anyone who has done this, do you have an opinion on whether it is better to mount the LEDs on the back of the niche or the middle. Just wondering about shadows when the light hits objects like shampoo bottles and such.
