Hi Wayne,

I love that you’re thinking this through ahead of time.

Yes, you can absolutely run two strips from that center location with the Smart LED Light Strip w/ App and Wireless IR Remote Control - 16' Long, part # DIA66QR. The controller has dual outputs, so you can connect a second compatible strip and both will operate together using the same controller and remote.

If your porch light is 12V (which it typically is on an RV), you would splice the controller into that circuit using the small white adapter with the raw wires. That lets the porch light switch act as your master on/off, keeping everything simple and tidy just like you’re aiming for.

The only thing to keep in mind is we don’t sell the strip by itself, so to run both directions cleanly you’d need a second kit to get the additional strip. That keeps everything matched and avoids compatibility issues.

What do you usually like to do under your awning after dark ? Grilling, playing cards, or just relaxing? I’d love to help you get this set up so it fits your evenings perfectly.
