Claim 15:
16. A tape light termination system comprising:
a housing having a plurality of compartments that are aligned in the housing to have a common wall therebetween;
a plurality of terminals, each of the terminals positioned in a respective one of the compartments; and
at least two of the compartments having a shared slot providing egress to the at least two compartments by a light emitting diode (LED) tape light comprising a flexible strip, wherein the flexible strip is receivable in the shared slot to extend between and separate the at least two compartments from each other, and the flexible strip is electrically coupled with the terminals on opposite sides of the flexible strip,
wherein the shared slot is formed in the housing and dimensioned to receive an edge of the light emitting diode (LED) tape light, the light emitting diode (LED) tape light comprising LED diode circuitry mounted in a central area of a planar surface of the flexible strip and electrically conductive pads on opposing planar surfaces of the flexible strip adjacent the edge of the LED tape light, wherein the shared slot causes alignment of an electrically conducting contact area of the terminals to contiguously contact the electrically conductive pads on the opposing planar surfaces of the flexible strip.
