Damned bulkhead connectors.
Well, this is what I wanted. I am from the old school and want to be able to do my troubleshooting easier than the connectors where you can not get access to the conductors.
I have a heck of a time trying to get at the connectors with it running the way it was. Now I can just pop off the top and everything is laid out nicely and can see it all at once
If I have problems with the strips, I will think of something else.
