I am planning to install under-cabinet LED strip lights - specifically LIFX Z Strip: [url]https://www.lifx.com/products/lifx-z[/url] Each strip is 3.3 ft long. My cabinets have support beams that the strips would have to go through or around. See attached photo. Question: Would it be ok to cut small holes in the supports (4mm x 12mm) to thread the strips through? Would cutting that way affect the strength of the supports? I don't think it is possible to cut the strips and run wire extensions. There are extension clips for these, but they presume both ends of the strips are intact. Thanks all.

Hi All, I currently have a ceiling fan controlled by 2 toggle switches. I was hoping to replace them with a [url=https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008SBTNQU]dimmer switch[/url] for the light and a [url=https://www.homedepot.com/p/Lutron-Skylark-Contour-1-5-Amp-Single-Pole-3-Way-Quiet-3-Speed-Slide-to-Off-Fan-Control-Light-Almond-CTFSQ-F-LA/203392028]speed control[/url] for the fan. The left switch controls the light, but I can't figure out what the right switch does? It doesn't control the light or turn just the fan on/off. It just doesn't seem to do anything? So, I was wondering if perhaps someone could tell me from a picture of the wiring here what it does? Basically, the right mystery switch has only 2 wires connected to it...a red one from the box and a black one just connected to the left switch. So, what's going on here? And if I want to add a light dimmer switch and fan speed control switch...how should I do it? Thanks!!!
