LED tape strip

Looking at a new job where in several bathrooms and other areas the customer wants the LED strip look.
Where do you all place the driver?

It's difficult to give a general answer to work that requires specifics.

How about inside an under-the-sink cabinet, affixed to the rear wall?

Let's start with commercial or residential and construction methods.

This is residential.
There is no cabinets to hide in..
Other area are open wall spaces. .

Okay, how about attic or crawl space? Nearby closet? Access panel or large J-box in inconspicuous location?

Around here, all houses have basements. That’s where the drivers end up.

I usually use them in kitchens for ucl and wind up putting the driver in a cabinet usually a sink base

Is it legit to install the driver surface mount without a box, the romex stabbed into the driver?

Only if that’s in accordance with the installation instructions of the given driver. Presuming it’s listed!

Yea, I've seen them mounted to the underside of cabinets with the romex in protected , always wondered about compliant.
