12V 5m iP20 RGB 5050 High Output LED Strip - 30 LEDs/m (Strip Only)
LED Montreal offers you a simple and affordable way to color up your environment with the 12V DC 5m iP20 RGB 5050 LED Strip. Ideal for usage in your kitchen or bedroom, it’s also everyone’s favorite to light up your home bar space. It is also fantastic to get the interior of your boat or RV ready for your next party. This Strip is not recommended for usage outside a boat or a vehicle.
The technical stuff: RGB Stands for Red-Green-Blue. 5050 RGB Chips give a 120-degree light beam and feature each of these 3 colors of LED lights within each chip: This allows to create up to two million different colors by mixing the red, green and blue at different levels. The amount of colors that can be achieved will depend on the RGB controller that you use. Note that the RGB Chip does not create a true white. Should you want to use your Strip to both enhance your décor and get an ambient white light, we strongly suggest using our RGBW Strip (Only available in 24V) that includes a white LED diode within the 5050 chips.
RGB LED Strips have a 4-wire connection, meaning that they can only be operated through an RGB controller. The controller will allow you to dim your strip and change colors manually or through automated color change patterns. The strip cannot be dimmed through a standard wall dimmer. Forecast a power supply at 12V DC of 9W (0.75A) per meter for your installation. As stated earlier, this strip comes in a 5m spool. You will find all the specs of the RGB LED Strip at the bottom of this page.
You can customize your LED Lighting set up as this Strip can be cut every 3 LEDS. The RGB LED Strip is flexible vertically but cannot be bent horizontally. Should you need to bypass an obstacle or turn a corner, we recommend to solder 4 strand wire onto your Strip. Soldering ensures a solid connection and minimal voltage loss. Quick connectors are available and are only recommended if you have 1 or 2 connections to make. Should you want to use a connector, use an iP20 grip and clip connector.
Your RGB LED Strip is equipped with a high-quality 3M adhesive. This adhesive is intended for installation on a clean, non-glossy metallic surface. LED Strips were not designed to be installed on varnished or glossy wood surfaces. For porous surfaces we suggest using the Double Sided 3M Acrylic Tape for LED Strips.
