Lepro 12V LED Strip Light 5M (No Plug), 6000K Cool White, 2300LM, Stick on

Wow! I didn't expect this quality for the price I paid. The LEDs arrived on a small plastic roll with red and black wires on the end. The wires were great for the first installation and I used terminal blocks to connect to them. Every third LED there is a cutting marker so the ribbon can be cut to length give or take about 4cm. Every 60cm or so (estimated, can't remember exactly) there are solder blobs marked + and - that you can reattach a 12V DC cable to. When you do this, the LEDs on each side of the cable light, so if you had to cut before the connection point they aren't wasted. They are a bright daylight white, I don't need a high CRI rating I'm not using them for photography just in my motorhome. They look as described to the naked eye. I replaced a 16W fluorescent fitting which was dim with about 1m of these, it's way brighter than the original fixture and uses just 3W. I also installed in the rear garage of the motorhome, just a 1m strip at one side is suffice to illuminate the large space at night. In the rear is 3M tape. Beware of cheaper brands offering poor quality tape that doesn't stick... I bought and returned one! This is very sticky and easily holds itself even when installed upside down. All in all highly recommended, I'm hooked and already ordered a second roll 😉

When I first opened the light I thought it looked a bit cheap and nasty. No problem though as when I tested it I was surprised at how bright it was. Fitting was very easy as the sticky backing is easily enough to carry the weight of the fitting which is very light. So I stuck it under the kitchen cupboards and connected it up to the light switch circuit and it looks fantastic as it lights up the oak flooring.

Bright lighting strip which sticks up quite well. Note that this (mine at least) does not come with a power supply and requires a 9v AC adaptor rather than a USB type power-socket.

I read a lot of reviews on led strips, and in the end bought these, and I am very happy with the purchase. They arrived on time, and I was unaware they arrive on two spools, with a female connector already fitted. I have several transformers off old gadgets, and soon found one that fitted. I used them cut down to light two display cases, so had to cut and solder the connections, which I found easy, as at certain areas along the strip solder is applied to the + and - areas, so soldering was easy. The led's are super bright, and they stuck really well, at the moment its early days, but the adhesive seems to be fine. So I know these are not the cheapest on Amazon, but I would certainly recommend this item.

I was looking for plain LED strips which are NOT on wires for undercabinet lighting in my kitchen. Great purchuse, excellent price, highly recommend. They are very bright and sticky, took just a few mins to stick them to the bottom of the cupboards. Wanted a very bright light to see what I am doing while cooking and these are excellent, pure white, not bluish, cool, not warm. Decided to install them in 3 rows, 2 should have been enough to achieve this brightness, now I am not sure if I need a ceiling light lol I have also bought a 12 V transformer driver from amazon which was connected to the led strip. Electritian put some cables in my walls so I can switch these lights on with a light swich on my wall. I believe if you buy an adaptor it also works that way and you can plug it into your existing sockets, your kitchen doesn't have to be rewired 😊 If you have an open living kitchen, or your kitchen cupboards don't have (high) pelmets, I suggest you to install these on the inner side of your pelmets because these lights can hurt your eyes if you sit down and look at the led lights from down there.

This is the 4th time I’ve ordered this product. I use it to illuminate the back of my work van. They are brilliant lights and perform well. They produce a great amount of light. The problem is with this new reel the adhesive backing came off while I was peeling off the back plastic. It would peel off fine for a good 10-15cm and then the sticky plastic would come off as well. Really frustrating and let the product down.

Well I'm hoping it stay 5*. I have attached it inside my horse trailer. Work super . Just hope sticky stuff works ok. Will know over time. But tbf they are great and easy fix. I cut the ends and just attached to wire. Then stuck and cut off tape. Super easy.

Good

Ich benutze diese LED Streifen um Train Save Vision Röhren mit meinen N-Modellen zu beleuchten. Nach einiger Suche bin ich hier nun endlich fündig geworden, denn diese Streifen geben ein exzellentes weißes Licht ab welches die Farben der Modelle gut wiedergibt. Es ist nicht zu kalt aber auch nicht zu warm sondern von der Temperatur her genau richtig. Der Streifen selber ist erstaunlich dünn und flexibel, er hat fast schon papierartige Eigenschaften. Der Kleber ist ausreichend fest und klebt zumindest in den Plexiglasröhren ganz hervorragend. Ich habe insgesamt 3 Rollen bestellt und mir ist keine einzige LED negativ aufgefallen. Alle drei LED's oder 5cm kann das Band gekürzt werden um die optimale Länge zu benutzen. Der Grund einen Stern Abzug bei diesem eigentlich optimale Produkt abzuziehen, wäre in der Verarbeitung der Übergänge der LED-Streifen und dem unsauberen Klebungen zu suchen. Denn die 5m pro Band setzen sich aus 1m Stücken zusammen, welche aneinander gelötet wurden. Diese Übergänge wären an nicht sichtbaren oder entfernten Stellen unkritisch, in meinen Plexiglasröhren nur ein paar cm entfernt von den Modellen fallen derartig grobe Lötereien natürlich unangenehm auf. Das war der erste Punkt an dem ich Hand anlegen musste - eher eine Lapalie. Der zweite, richtig arbeitsintensive Punkt war, das sich an nicht wenigen Stellen (je enger die Streifen im Innern der Transportrolle lagen) der Kleber sich vom LED-Streifen gelöst hatte (Bild 1) und ohne Eingriff in der Röhre unschöne Dellen ergeben hätten. An diesen Stellen habe ich mit einer dünnen Nagelschere den Klebestreifen trennen müssen. Da ich zu diesem Zweck den Abdeckstreifen (welcher den Kleber schützt) nicht auch unterbrechen wollte, war das bei insgesamt 3x 5m eine sehr zeitintensive Arbeit. Das Endergebnis hat sich allerdings gelohnt. Da das Produkt sehr umweltfreundlich ohne Trafo verkauft wurde (Trafo ist natürlich separat erhältlich) und ich mit dem Resultat vollauf zufrieden bin, addiere mal einen Stern wieder rauf und vergebe also volle Punktzahl!

Très bon éclairement.

Eclaire très bien. Bon rapport qualité prix. Je recommande.

GRATAMENTE SATISFECHA: Solucionado,meandaron otra tira y ahora sí puedo decir que va GENIAL y da muchísima luz.Mil gracias.

I recently added under cabinet lighting to my kitchen counters. It looks fantastic once completed. I have a very large kitchen, around 25 feet or more and was able to wire the whole thing up for under $100. Without the diffusion rods, could've done it for under ~$30. I have a custom built house so I had the builder install electrical outlets above the top kitchen cabinets, this way I can plug in the adapters and it can't be seen from below. The most basic materials needed is 1. a plug in adapter to provide the 12V of power that plugs into the wall, 2. the wire for getting the 12V power from the adapter to the LED lights, the LED light strips, 3. and solderless connectors for hooking things up (this was a big headache). When I was installed the LED string lights I noticed the lights were glaring off my silestone countertops so I added a diffusion rod to diffuse the light, and the aluminum rod it came in made moving around the lights a lot easier during installation. Highly recommend getting the diffusion rods to protect your lights and re-orient them in the future without having to rip them out because their glue is strong and the LED strip is very weak. Below are the materials needed and my reviews for them. LE DC 12V 2A Power Supply Adapter, AC 100-240V to DC 12V Transformers, Switching Power Supply for 12V 3528/5050 LED Strip Lights, 24W Max, 12 Volt 2 Amp Power Adaptor, 2.1mm X 5.5mm US Plug https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B019Q3U72M/ Great power supply, used for powering up my LED strips and the connector it comes with useful for testing connections before securing wires. I shorted it a few times and it must've had a built in protection circuit because it never burnt out or caught fire. It says 24W max and my LED strips are 24W so it must be slightly more efficient since it was able to drive them without issues. Later I only used half the light strip on this adapter since my kitchen has a gap in it. Buy this, you'll need it and its very cheap. Homelek 100V-240V To DC 12V 5A Power Supply Adapter, for SMD3528/5630/5050 LED Strip Lights https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01DA1SAVG/ This one is OK, the issue is I didn't like is the 3 prong connector at the end as my z-wave light controller only has 2 pins so I had to use an adapter. I can sort of understand why though since it can push up to 5A unlike my other power adapter. This adapter is also big, it basically looks just like a laptop power adapter. I thought my lights would use more than 2A so I also got this adapter but I didn't end up needing so much power ( I still use this in the project). I might add floor lighting in the future, where this extra power capacity will come in useful. LE 16.4ft/5m Flexible LED Light Strips, 300 Units SMD 3528 LEDs, 12V DC Flexible LED Strip Lights, Daylight White, Non-waterproof, Lighting Strips, LED Tape, for Gardens/Homes/Kitchen/Cars/Bar https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HSF65MC This is the heart of your system, the lights themselves! No wonder it has so many reviews, these lights are great and crazy cheap. For $10 you get 5m worth of lights, I thought it was a scam or there must be some catch because the quality of these lights are great. I didn't measure the power consumption, but they light up during the day and night very well. I actually bought two rolls because I thought one wasn't enough. Its OK though since I can use the second roll for future floor lighting. Pyle PSC1850 18-Gauge 50-Feet Spool of High Quality Speaker Zip Wire https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003ZX4RBM This is just generic speaker wire, but its great for hooking up LED lights because its thin so can be strung through cabinets easily, can drive ample current for LED lights and is easy to strip and work with. I used it to string wire from above the cabinets to down under the cabinets where the LED lights are situated. The kitchen cabinets usually have a gap between the cabinets, but in some cases I just drilled holes through the cabinet and pushed this wire through. For $3-4, if you don't already have enough wire, just get this. LE 2 Pcs Adapter Cable + 2 Pcs 2-Pin 8mm Connector Kit for 3528 Single Color LED Strip Lights, Gapless Strip to Strip, Cables Connect Adapter and LED Strips, Seamlessly Extend LED Strip Lights https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0085ZX8EM/ These are awesome, no wonder it has so many great reviews. The adapters are perfect for connecting to light strips and the connectors are good because they go over the LED strips guaranteeing a solid connection. Unfortunately, it only comes with 2 connectors so you need to buy more separately. Glo-shine 20pcs LED Strip Solderless Connector Adapter for 3528 Waterproof Single Color Led Strip ,2pin 8mm PCB Wide (GS-DJ-8BB-2-20) https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B013SPE8JW This is why my project took several days instead of one afternoon. These are horrible, don't buy it unless you hate yourself. The problem is when they shut close, they don't securely come in contact with the LED strips, resulting in very loose connections and the LED strips just falling out of them. I ended up having to BUY A soldering iron to solder my connections to these horrible pins. FINELED 10 Lots 2pins 8mm Wide Waterproof LED Strip Light Connector Adapter for SMD 5050 3528 Single Color LED Strip Light, No Need Soldering (10PCS) https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0180EGI9E Same thing with these, horrible. Far too loose to be useful connectors for the 8mm single color LED strips I was using. Maybe because in the description it says for WATERPROOF LED strips, and since mine are not waterproof they might be much thinner. My LED strips are 8 mm so it should work well but it doesn't. They should be like the other connectors I bought where the LED strip goes underneath the contacts. I ended up having to BUY A soldering iron to solder my connections to these horrible pins. LightingWill 5-Pack 3.3ft/1M 9x17mm Silver U-Shape Internal Width 12mm LED Aluminum Channel System with Cover, End Caps and Mounting Clips Aluminum Profile for LED Strip Light Installations-U02S5 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01DM7EXBO/ This is optional but highly recommended, it diffuses the lights and protects them. Allows you to easily move the lights around, etc. I wish it was cheaper, it basically cost as much as everything else in the project combined, but luckily one order was enough for the whole kitchen and I even ended up with some spare material. Its easy to cut, I was able to use a hacksaw for the aluminum, and scissors/wire stripppers for the diffusion covers. The covers snap easily into the aluminum channel. GoControl Z-Wave Plug-in Dimmer Module - PD300Z-2 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00E1OXK3A I control the lights using my z-wave controller. This works really well. Sometimes it doesn't pair well with my domoticz z-wave controller. I figured out I need to just reboot the controller and it should show up.
