IP68 RGBW LED Strip Lights

There are 60 LEDs per Meter (spaced every 16mm) which output 1050 Lumens/M at a 120-degree angle. This strip uses a double-layered flexible circuit board (FPC) to balance out voltage drop and aid in heat dissipation. Efficient Heat transfer is crucial when working with strips housed in a thicker material as it will ensure heat is spread evenly throughout the board, keeping the LEDs from getting too hot and burning out.

Please Note: The Color Changing RGBW option still requires a larger diode size than the 2835 LEDs used in the white versions of this strip. Therefore, the RGBW version still uses the same 5050 diodes and 60 LEDs/M density that our 12V High-Density strips utilize. 

High-Quality IP68 Protection

Complete IP68 Waterproof protection using a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) and silicone blend encases the strip from end to end. The material is highly flexible, allowing the strips to bend in and out while maintaining the highest protection of any of our strip lights.

The strongly bonded material has a high UV resistance, which means your strips aren't going to yellow or crack. The TPU material will stand up over time and in extreme conditions with a -30° C - 90° C operating temperature, plenty hot enough for high-temperature applications like steam room or sauna lighting.

Cut Points and End-to-End Connections

Like our other flex strips, these come with the option to be cut down in length every 2 inches. Before cutting these strips, please recognize that cutting them forfeits the manufacturer's IP68 rating of this strip light. Luckily there are many at-home methods to waterproof your connections or cut-ends, but please take note of this before you cut the strip lights down.

When there is a break in your application, you can still cut and run strips together using 20-24 gauge wire. TAKE NOTE: IP68 LED Strip's maximum run length is 32.8 feet (2 reels), and you should waterproof every connection you make. If your application needs more than the maximum run length, we suggest finding a way to use multiple reels (without cutting) to run back to the power source (wiring in parallel).

Power

The strips require 24VDC input from an AC/DC transformer or a battery. Compatible power supplies can be found below in the recommended product section. When finding a power supply, it is crucial to account for your wattage, and these strips run at 10 Watts/M (RGB = 14).

Connecting to power can quickly be done with simple wire-to-wire techniques such as soldering, wire nuts, electrical tape, etc. If you have a plug-in adapter with a barrel plug on the end, these screw-in terminal power plugs help turn the wire leads into a simple plug-in connection. Remember, it is crucial to waterproof your connections with these strips if you are using them in an appropriate application. 

Dimming

The strips are fully dimmable with 24V PWM dimmers. Flex strips tend to use in-line PWM dimmers which go in between your power supply and strips. 

Mounting

Strong bonded 3M double-sided adhesive backs these strip lights to help mounting go smoothly. Five mounting clips are also provided for each reel purchased. If your application requires some extra hold, outside adhesives/silicones will work with this strip light.
