    They are all built on the same principle – they consist of individual modules in which diodes are connected in series.

What kind of cable for LED 12v lighting?

    A two-core cable is sufficient; we need a four-core cable for RGB strips and RGBW strips, a five-core line. The RGB cable has three wires corresponding to the three RGB colors and one power wire.

Is the LED strip waterproof?

    The LED strip is equipped with high-quality SMD 5050 LEDs, which shine in different colors. The waterproof class IP68. RGB LED strip 300 with a total power of 72W/5m is equipped with a silicone cover, making it completely waterproof and dustproof.

How does the LED strip work?

    In summary, the principle of operation of LEDs can be described as follows: Under the influence of electricity, a physical and chemical reaction occurs in the diode due to which light is produced.

Is the LED strip self-adhesive?

    Self-adhesive LED strip Greenie 60 LEDs 5050SMD roll of 5mUses 5050SMD LEDs provide up to 3 times more light than a strip with 3528SMD LEDs… There are 60 5050SMD diodes per meter. Durable and safe installation for many years provides 3M self-adhesive tape.

How do I check if the 12 V power supply is working?

    To make it easier to check the power supply, connect the fans of your PC equipment to it, which indicates whether the device is working correctly. Switch the power supply to the “I” position and then let it run. If the device is working correctly, the fans will turn on.

Will the LED power supply burn out?

    It would help if you also remembered to choose a slightly more powerful power supply for the LED strip. Ideally, the power should be 10-20% higher. Buying a much more robust product can lead to faster strip wear and even burn it.
