[chbot] Tape for securing LED strip

[Andrew Errington]

I'm not sure precisely what I have (Scotch/3M has a huge range) but I'd
expect to find it at the usual places (Warehouse, Mitre 10, Bunnings,
Spotlight etc.)

Here's a link from Bunnings:
https://www.bunnings.co.nz/3m-scotch-12-7mm-x-1-9m-heavy-duty-mounting-tape_p00728951

There is a wider version (25mm) at Bunnings, but there are probably more
variants to be found.

I'd recommend branded stuff because it will probably stick. I expect you
can also find non-branded double-sided foam tape at a dollar store for much
less, but it might not be as good. Your choice.
