    If we have two sections of strips, we can connect them at this point by soldering. Of course, this must be done carefully and precisely to not damage the tape and LEDs, which are right next to it. Without a dark break, such a connection will provide us with continuity and uniformity of the light LED strip.

How many watts of power supply for LEDs?

    Power consumption for 150 LED strip: 1 meter SMD 3528 LED strip consumes 2.4 W (watts) – the whole roll (5 m) consumes 12 W, while 1 meter SMD 5050 LED strip consumes 7.2 W – the entire roll (5 m) consumes 36 W.

What kind of power supply for an 8 m LED strip?

    For LED strips, buy a power supply that is compatible with this type of lighting, and do not use power supplies that are not designed for this type of lighting. Do not use LED strips with the old AC transformers for halogen lighting; only use a constant DC voltage power supply.

What kind of power supply for RGB LED?

    LED strip 5050 5m – this is an LED strip with a power consumption of 14.4W/m. This means that a section of 5 meters has a power consumption of 72W. In this case, the choice of the power supply should be at least about 80W (72W*10-15%).

What voltage is applied to the LED?

    They are usually powered by 12 or 24 V DC or 12 V AC. They typically use a step-down regulator.

What kind of power supply for LED halogen lamps?

    Theoretically, a halogen power supply can be used for LEDs, but there is one condition. Everything depends on what is its power. The power supply must be loaded between 30% and 100%. So if you have a 60W power supply, you can connect three 20W lamps or one 20W lamp.

How do I connect a 15 m LED strip?

    An LED strip has a beginning and an end, so you need to solder wires to both ends and connect them to the LED power supply, two (+) and two (-), respectively. Info when you buy LED strips and LED power supplies in our store, we will connect long LED strip sections for you.
