FAQ

Have a question and don't see the answer below? Click here to chat with an LED expert.

How long is the lead length on a normal strip light?
Every strip light is made with 6" wire leads on both ends of the 16.4' reel of lights. This allows you to cut the strip light anywhere and utilize both ends for your project.
How many wires are used on an RGBW color changing strip light?
RGBA Strip lights use 5 wires. One wire for each color Red, Green, Blue, Amber and one wire for Black(+) positive.
How do I make my RGBA strip light change color?
You will need an RGBW controller or a DMX color changing setup to make your RGBA strip light change color. For specific questions about your application, feel free to chat with one of our LED lighting experts.
Should I choose Standard Brightness or Ultra Bright?
This is a personal preference and depends on your application. If your application requires a high or more bright lighting or if you are trying to light a larger area, go with Ultra Bright as the light will spread farther and appear brighter. If you are using these as more of an accent light and not a focal point, go with Standard Bright. If you are unsure, go with Ultra Bright and use the dimming function on your controller to allow you to choose your own brightness once installed.
Do I need Waterproof, Water Resistant or Non-Waterproof?
To select the right LED strip light, consider your application. If it is going to be used outdoors where it will be exposed to rain, humidity or moisture go with the Waterproof. The Waterproof strip lights are completely encased in silicone and can be submersed under water. They are also more resilient to heavy traffic or abuse because of this protection layer. If it will be used indoors near a sink or in a location where it might occasionally get splashed, or under a covered roof outdoors where it will be protected from most moisture, go with Water Resistant. If you are using it indoors and there is no chance of direct water or moisture exposure, the Non-Waterproof will be your best bet.
How do I connect my strip lights to the power supply?
On the strip light, there are five wires; a red, green, blue and amber wire and a black (+) wire. These wires will screw into the terminals on your controller corresponding to their color. Your power supply will have a line(+) and neutral(-) wire that will also connect to your controller.
What gauge wire should I use to run between my strip light and my power supply?
This depends on the distance between your strip light and the power supply. We generally recommend using between 18ga and 14ga stranded wire. Longer distances require larger gauge wire. Always consult a wire gauge chart to determine the correct size wire for your application and remember that you will need to run 5 wires for RGBA Color Changing lights.

LED strip lights are a low-voltage (12VDC or 24VDC) product and require a constant source of low voltage power in order to operate. In most residential or commercial applications, a power supply (sometimes called a driver or transformer) is used to provide the LED strip lights with the low voltage power that they need to run. The power supply connects to standard house current (120VAC) and steps this current down to 12 or 24VDC. In automotive or marine applications, this power can be supplied from a 12vdc or 24vdc battery. The most popular voltage used by residential and commercial customers is 24VDC, since it is still a safe low voltage and yet it provides more protection against voltage drop, and consumes less current. If you have any questions about sizing your power supply, please don't hesitate to chat live with an LED expert.

Select the LED strip light that you'd like to use for your calculations. Choosing the right strip light is important because each strip light has a different power consumption (wattage/foot).

Choose your preferred voltage. 24VDC is most common for residential and commercial applications.

Simply round *up* to the nearest power supply size. Remember that it never hurts to go larger with your power supply, but your lights will not operate properly if your power supply is too small. If needed, you can also use multiple power suppliesto meet your consumption requirement.
The minimum power supply size automatically adds 20% to your total consumption to account for voltage drop and in-rush current at startup.
