Ra80 makes timber look grey and food look flat. Where the tape lights a surface nobody examines, or throws light onto a ceiling as an indirect wash, Ra80 saves money without costing anything that shows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe 20 metre roll\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSold as a continuous length rather than the usual 5 metre reel. On a long run — a perimeter cove, a corridor, a full kitchen — that means fewer joints, and every joint is a point that can fail. Work out the total length first; a 20m roll only saves money if you use most of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eVoltage drop on a long run\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe longer the run, the more it matters. Beyond about 16 feet, 12V tape goes visibly dimmer towards the far end.
