What is a Lightstrip?

A lightstrip is a flexible circuit board that houses multiple LEDs (light-emitting diodes). The can be placed almost anywhere for creative, colorful and fun accent lighting in your home. Lightstrips are made from bendable synthetics and come with an adhesive backing, allowing you to place them around furniture and other objects. LED lightstrips come in a variety of lengths (anywhere from 8-20 feet) some of which can be cut or extended. Each LED is usually capable of emitting 2200K-6500K in color temperature and around from 1000-2000 lumens. Many smart lightstrips are equipped with color LEDs. This enables each LED to display the whole RGB color spectrum, combining for an array of unique light effects.

Most lightstrips are not waterproof.

These outdoor ligthstrips maintain their flexibility and can add ambient light to your outdoor area. Interweave the strip between plants, paths, and outdoor furniture for a lively outdoor feel.

Can lightstrips be cut?

Many smart lightstrips are designed to be cut for better placement. Each LED strip will usually have a scissor or dotted line indicating where to cut. As long as you cut along these highlighted marks, the lightstrip will function normally. After you've cut the strip, you'll need an extra quick-connector or extender to be placed on the newly exposed PC board, which allows for a new electrical connection to be made. Many manufacturers add a connector in the box. However, if you want multiple connectors, you'll usually need to purchase them separately.
