Power connection method: The general voltage of the LED strip is DC 12V, so a switching power supply is required for power supply. The size of the power supply is determined according to the power and connection length of the LED strip. If you don’t want to use one power supply to control each LED light strip, you can buy a switching power supply with relatively high power as the total power supply, and then connect all the LED light strip input power supplies in parallel (if the wire size is not enough, you can extend it additionally), Unified power supply by the general switching power supply. The advantage of this is that it can be controlled centrally. The inconvenience is that the lighting effect and switch control of a single LED strip cannot be realized. The specific method can be measured by yourself.

Controller connection method: LED marquee strips and RGB full-color light strips need to use a controller to achieve changing effects, and the control distance of each controller is different. Generally speaking, the control distance of a simple controller is 10 to 15 meters , The control distance of the remote controller is 15 to 20 meters, and the longest distance can be controlled to 30 meters. If the connection distance of the LED light strip is long, and the controller cannot control such a long light strip, then a power amplifier is required for branching.

Pay attention to the connection distance of the LED light strip: Generally speaking, the longest connection distance of the 3528 series LED light strip is 20 meters, and the longest connection distance of the 5050 series LED light strip is 15 meters. If the connection distance is exceeded, the LED light strip will easily heat up, which will affect the service life of the LED light strip during use. Therefore, the installation must be carried out according to the requirements of the manufacturer, and the LED strip should not be overloaded.
