Looking for advice on supplier for LED panels

Looking for advice on a good reliable LED panel supplier for a DIY project that has quality LEDs that are to advertised specs, wont fail within a year and are high output light wise.

  • Color: 6k+
  • Power: upto 12v/100W or 24v/200W
  • Panel size, around 200mm², no bigger than 220mm x 220mm.
  • Price: Looking for quality that produce the most amount of light (not just heat/waist energy), not cheap and nasty that will fail within 12/24mths.
  • COB/ SMD: Dont care.

Looked around Ali/Aba and all kinda looked the same meh ali quality and the Sort by price seems to only work to that page / if at all.

Any advice on where to get good quality led panels/strips would be highly appreciated.

Simulate Force Needed

How would I go about simulating how much force (weight) is needed on the outer top section to lift up the opposite edge.

Tried to google, but lack the correct terminology to get pointed in the correct direction.

New Irwin Wire Strippers, Defective or ... ?

Just got a set of Irwin 7-in-1 wire stripper from a bix box store and noticed that they don't close all the way and because of this, the sizing seems off. It seems there is a ridge and this seems intentional that is stopping it from closing completely.

The example is a 14awg ETFE cable (did double check, core is to spec), the core fits loosely into the 16awg stranded. Using the 14awg, it barely eve grips the sheath and scratches it.

So are these defective or per design / why?

Trying to find a alternative to a self tapper 4mm x 20mm, T20, that is used to screw in dash and LCD trim on a F15 X5.

Found the P/N I am after but was wondering if there was a cheaper / bulk option as BMW / ECS is asking like $3 per screw. The P/N: 07149185673, but have not being able find a Amazon / Ebay / Ali alternative that is actually cheaper
