Precautions for installing and using LED light bar.
LED strip is a common indoor decorative lamp with simple installation and convenient use. This article will introduce LED strip's installation method, power connection method, controller connection method and matters needing attention in use.

Simple installation

When LED strip is used for interior decoration, it is very simple to install because it is not subject to wind and rain. There is a self-adhesive 3M double-sided adhesive tape on the back of each LED strip. When installing, you can directly tear off the adhesive on the surface of 3M double-sided adhesive tape, and then fix the light bar where it needs to be installed and flatten it by hand.

power connection

The voltage in LED strip is generally 12V DC, so switching power supply is needed. The power supply depends on the power and connection length of the LED light bar. If you don't want each LED strip to be controlled by one power supply, you can buy a high-power switching power supply as the main power supply, and then connect all the LED strip input power supplies in parallel (it can be lengthened if the wire diameter is not enough), and the power supply is unified by the main switching power supply.

Controller connection

LED happy light bar and RGB full color light bar need to use controllers to achieve the changing effect, but the control distance of each controller is different. Generally speaking, the control distance of a simple controller is 10 to 15 meters, and the control distance of a remote controller is 15 to 20 meters, which can be controlled as far as 30 meters. If the connection distance of LED light bar is long and the controller can't control such a long light bar, then a power amplifier is needed for tapping.

Matters needing attention

Generally speaking, the longest connection distance of 3528 series LED light bars is 20m, and that of 5050 series LED light bars is 15m. If this connection distance is exceeded, LED strip will easily get hot, which will affect the service life of LED strip. Therefore, the installation must be carried out according to the requirements of the manufacturer, and the LED lights should not be overloaded.
