    Posted: 21 Jul 2020 at 8:18am

I have the Corsair fans with the lighting strip etc. The lighting strip began to become detached at the top and is hanging down a bit. I tried opening the case and pushing it back. It will stay for a day or so then it begins to become detached again.

Is there a safe adhesive that will keep the lighting strip in place?


thanks,

Have you tried double-sided tape?

I would consider such if it is safe to use inside the computer.

You can use double sided tape to hold the strip in place if it comes off. No issues at all.
Good luck.

I use double-sided clear tape. Should be able to buy a roll at any hardware or crafts store.

I recently bought a strip of LED lights and it came with a roll of double-sided clear tape. However, if you have black, double-sided electrical tape, that would probably work as well.

Velcro type tape will work. Hey velcro was developed for astronauts. Works in deep space , should work in your case. I think you probably were successful. Your post I just noticed was a month ago.

But if this happens to anyone else. Give that a try. Better defined if you need this type of tape . Its called Velcro Hook and Loop tape.
