LED Flexi Strip Light Kit 5 Metre RGB

LED Flexi Strip Light Kit, 5 Metre RGB

Easy-to-use rolls of LED strip lighting open up a multitude of mood lighting options for the home DIYer, with RGB LED strip lighting adding even more customization potential. LEDs produce light when an electric current passes through a microchip (instead of heating a metal filament), and the RGB version mixes red, blue, and green chips to produce light in a wide range of colours.

Lighting affects us both physiologically and psychologically. We may take it for granted at times, but it’s all around us. Stores, workplaces, restaurants, and every flick of a light switch in our own homes all bathe us in a glow that can change our mood, and these strip lights give a calming effect.

LED strip lights can be used under cabinets, along toe-kicks, under shelves, under the bed, behind computer & TV screens and are great for brightening up a child’s bedroom.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What comes in the LED strip light kit?
A: Everything for a 5 metre run: 5 metres of colour changing RGB strip, 2 connectors, a power supply, a remote control and a receiver. It is a Crompton kit, manufacturer code 12516.

Q: Can I cut the LED strip to length?
A: Yes. The strip can be cut at the marked intervals along its length, so you can trim it to fit a shelf, a unit or the back of a TV. Only cut on the marked lines, because cutting anywhere else stops that section working.

Q: Can I use this LED strip light outside?
A: The strip can be used outdoors, but the power supply is rated IP20, so outside it must be housed in a suitable IP65 enclosure or junction box. If you are unsure what a position needs, see our guide on what IP rating you need.

Q: How does the remote control work?
A: The remote works through the included receiver to set the colour of the strip. The strip mixes red, green and blue LEDs, which is how it produces a wide range of colours.

Q: How much power does a 5 metre RGB strip use?
A: The whole 5 metre kit is rated 30 watts, and the strip runs at 12 volts from the included power supply, so it is inexpensive to run as mood lighting.

Q: Where do people fit RGB strip lights?
A: Under kitchen cabinets, along kick boards, under shelves and beds, behind TVs and computer screens, and in children's bedrooms. The self adhesive backing sticks to most clean, dry, smooth surfaces.

Q: Which LED strip should I choose?
A: This kit is for colour changing mood lighting. For a weatherproof strip see our 24W IP65 LED ribbon strip, and for another colour strip with its own remote see the LED coloured strip light. If you are lighting a whole room, our LED strip versus LED batten guide will help.
