High quality

This RGB LED strip is made from quality plastic and has an epoxy protective layer to make it water-resistant. The back has 3M adhesive tape for straightforward installation. The standard length is 5 metres, which can be adjusted by cutting the strip or joining several strips. This SMD5050 LED strip has an IP65 rating, making it resistant to water or moisture. It can be installed in damp areas or outdoors at temperatures from -25°C to 40°C.

Water-resistant LED strip

This LED strip has an IP65 rating. It is water-resistant dustproof and can therefore be installed in damp areas.

Extending or shortening an LED strip

This RGB SMD5050 LED strip can be cut to shorten it or joined to extend it. Cut through the centre of the copper pads marked + and -. The resulting ends can be clipped into a connector or sealed with a cap.

With a voltage drop of approximately 0.1V per metre, LED brightness remains steady across the strip. For optimal operation, we recommend extending it only up to these lengths:

12V LED strip

We recommend not extending this 12V strip beyond 10 metres to maintain an even light effect without noticeable brightness loss.

24V LED strip

We recommend not extending this 24V strip beyond 20 metres to maintain an even light effect without noticeable brightness loss.

Choosing the right power supply

A power adapter is required to connect the strip. It operates on 12V/24V and requires a suitable adapter to convert the supply. Choosing the correct adapter helps the strip perform well and prevents insufficient power.

The adapter should have at least 20% more wattage than the strip. Example: 5 metres = 72W; 72 × 1.2 = 86.4W. An adapter of at least 86.4W is therefore required; we recommend 100W.

12V LED strip

• 1m-5m: Power adapter IP67 12V 100W
• 5m-10m: Power adapter IP67 12V 200W

24V LED strip

• 1m-5m: Power adapter IP67 24V 100W
• 5m-10m: Power adapter IP67 24V 200W
• 10m-15m: Power adapter IP67 24V 260W
• 15m-20m: Power adapter IP67 24V 350W

RGB controller with remote control

This optional controller is compatible with both 12V and 24V RGB LED strips. The battery-powered RF remote lets you adjust colours, brightness and lighting modes wirelessly, without needing control cables.

LED strip applications

This LED strip is suitable for businesses and home users. Common locations include exhibition stands, escape rooms, shops, cafés, restaurants, public transport, living rooms and bedrooms.

Other examples include lighting along stair treads, in cupboards or under a sofa or bed. Cafés often use LED strips to illuminate bars, while ceiling coves are another frequent application.

RGB - coloured light

Choose the light colour based on what the lighting is meant to achieve. RGB lighting lets you select and adjust the desired colour to create a personal atmosphere.
