Hi all,

I have some shelves that are built-in to the wall, they are part of the house. They're very similar to this:

There are sixteen shelves in total and I originally wanted to use RGB strips to add a light shining down into the shelves. I've watched some tutorials but they all require drilling holes to run the cables through, and since I'm renting I can not do that (it explicitly says no destructive modification to any pre-installed fixtures in my lease). I'm wondering if anyone knows of any other options. Like is there something that exists like wireless charging pads that can send the power wirelessly through the walls of the shelves?

Thanks in advance.

No idea how many batteries you will have to replace every week.

 

Just buy a white cable and run it along the partitions.

Or hide them using small cable duct if you hate the sight of cable that much.

Something like this :
