LED lighting solutions are famous for their unrivalled energy efficiency. They can convert the majority of the power they consume into light with very minimal going to waste. Powered by that technology, this LED strip only requires 5w per metre to produce a whooping 592 lumens maximum brightness with a broad 120-degree beam angle!

In addition, it has an extended average lifespan of 50,000 hours which is ten times longer than any traditional light fixture! So, how do these affect you? Besides enjoying premium-quality brilliance, you will pay less for electrical expenses and maintenance costs if you swap out your incandescent or fluorescent light bulbs with this LED strip light!

We offer a free bespoke cutting service when you purchase this LED strip light. Aside from that, we’ll solder a 2-metre cable on each end of the strip, so when your order arrives, you can immediately proceed with the installation. No more measuring, cutting and soldering!

Just note that this LED strip is cuttable every 50mm, and you can get it to a continuous maximum length of 10 metres. So when you place your order, make sure to round down to the nearest 50mm.

This LED strip tape is 12v DC, so it will require a LED driver to make it work. Depending on how you want your strip lights to function, you’ll need a specific driver and controller combination. 

To get the appropriate driver for this LED strip, you’ll have to multiply the number of meters you’re using by the wattage per metre of the strip and then round up to the nearest available LED driver. So, if this strip light is 5w per metre and you’ll use 10 metres of strip light, the LED driver you need must be 50w and above. It’s better to have an LED driver with a higher capacity than your strips rather than the opposite!

This LED strip light can produce natural white light, 4000K. What does it look like? Unlike cool white light with a crisp bluish tone and warm white light with a yellowish shade that looks similar to an old incandescent bulb, natural white light is clear without any hints of blue or yellow. It resembles a cloudless sunny day and is suitable for task lighting as it’s comfortable on the eyes!

Natural white light is exceedingly brilliant, allowing you to have a good view of the space and helping you stay focused on the task. You can use this to illuminate various work surfaces like your kitchen counter, study table, or other workspaces!

Thanks to the multiple control options you can use with this LED strip light, you can manage your lights the way you prefer! You can control it using smart speakers like Alexa or Google Home, LED compatible mains wall dimmer or remote control. Just ensure you get the appropriate driver for the control option you prefer because it will not work if it's incompatible.

Choose a standard LED driver if you don't wish to dim your LED strip light or if you will be using one of our remote controls or wall controllers to manage them. Alternatively, select a dimmable LED driver if you will be using a traditional wall dimmer to control your strip lights (ensure your standard wall dimmer is LED compatible). 

This LED strip light is IP65 rated. Therefore, you can install it anywhere in your home, including the bathroom’s zone 1. Even if jets and splashes of water come into contact with your lights, they will not short-circuit or malfunction. You can use this LED strip light in your bedroom, garage, storage room, dining room, kitchen, living room, etc!

As for the installation, you won’t have any issues with this LED strip. It has an adhesive backing, so it’s easy to mount. Just follow the installation instruction and prepare the driver and controller that you’ll use with this strip light! If you’re not confident doing the installation yourself, calling an electrician will be in your best interest.
