Let me know if you would like to discuss over the phone, or I could possibly come over and take a look. I do not publish my contact info on open forums, so use a private message.
Thanks, but its done, and I am in Snowchussetts. I am just bitching because the job was made more difficult by the improper specs in the first place. There was no room for twisted wire from 18 GWT solid to LED strip. within one inch in a 10 MM channel, or at least that I could see or do.

You are a professional tinkerer, beyond my hacking skills
