    The backing on those strips isn't very good. Just use some better double sided tape. I used 3M 4010 on the strip in my case but you'll probably want something thinner for on the wall.

    Sometimes these LED strips get warm...not hot, but warm enough so the glue on the tapes comes off.
    Either use better tape, or mount them on an aluminum strip, or for better looks, an aluminum U-shape.
