12V 5m iP65+ 3528 Single Color LED Strip - 60 LEDs/m (Strip only)

12V 5m iP65+ 3528 Single Color LED Strip - 60 LEDs/m (Strip only)

Affordable LED lighting does not have to be low quality LED Lighting. This 12V, 3528 LED Strip will deliver great ambient lighting at an incredible price. Offered in three types of Warm White (2400K, 2700K and 3000K), Natural White (4500K), Cool White (6000K), it’s perfect to highlight crown moldings and bring a classy accent lighting to any room.

This LED Strip features 60 3528 LED Chips (3.5mm x 2.8mm) per meter over a 5m roll. These Chips give a 120-degree light beam and a light output of 400 lumens per meter. The 12V 3528 Single Color Strip has an iP65+ silicone coating that makes the Strip easy to clean while protecting it from humidity and liquid damage. The iP65+ coating will not crack or deteriorate over time, like lower end silicon glue coating would.

Your 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, wet and marine environments or usage with IP 67 strips, we suggest using the Double Sided 3M Acrylic Tape for LED Strips.

This Single Color 12V Led Strip is cULus Listed. This means that is has been tested for electrical safety according to Canadian Standards when powered with a compliant Class 2 Power supply. It also means that it will pass the toughest building inspections both in Canada and the USA.

We use custom high quality 3OZ PCB (Printed Circuit Board) to manufacture our LED Strips to ensure a consistent brightness throughout the 12V Strip. Unlike cheaper strips that can be found on the market, this LED Strip will allow you to connect to 10 meters in series without losing brightness.

Forecast a power supply at 12VDC of 6W (500mA) per meter for your installation (30W for the complete Strip). Consult our page about power supplies to know more about the required power for your LED strip and to see our line of available power supplies.

This LED strip comes in a 5m spool and is equipped with a female DC connector on one end for easy connection to our plug-in power supplies and a 2-wire connection on the other end. The two-wire connection is used to connect two strips together or to hook up your Strip to a hard-wired power supply. Its low energy consumption allows you to power your strip with a 12VDC battery pack.

You can customize your LED Lighting set up as this Strip can be cut every 3 LEDS. The 5m 3528 Strip is flexible vertically but cannot be bent horizontally. Should you need to bypass an obstacle or turn a corner, we recommend removing the iP65+ sleeve with an x-acto knife and solder 2 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 while making sure the remove both the top and bottom silicone of the Strip.

The 60 LEDs 12V 3528 iP65+ Single Color LED Strip is fully dimmable. You can either dim it through a remote control or a wall panel with one of our low voltage controllers or you can dim it using an LED compatible wall dimmer when combined with one of our dimmable power supplies.

This high quality Strip features our revolutionary iP65+ waterproofing technology. The iP65+ coating protects your strip all around with a silicon sleeve that remains clear and flexible through time. iP65+ strips are ideal for indoor and light duty outdoor usage. For outdoor applications where the strip will be directly exposed to the elements, we recommend iP67+ grade strips.
