The Outdoor Color Changing 300 LED strip light is a reel of linear color changing LED chips mounted on a flexible strip of printed circuit board (PCB) with a strong adhesive backing. To achieve weather protection, the strips are enveloped in a silicone plastic casing. Sometimes referred to as "color changing LED tape lights," the flexible design of LED strips means the lights can be installed in basically any space you can imagine. With these strips you can change the lights to nearly any color combination for a wide range of creative options. These lights work perfectly for outdoor installations as well as indoor spaces such as aquariums or in bathrooms that may be exposed to water.
The IP67 rating means that the LED strip lights are able to withstand jets and splashes of water from all sides. It cannot be submerged in water, but it will withstand the elements. We also recommend outdoor lights for use indoors in high splash areas or if you're looking for a strip that is easier to clean.
If you order an RGB flexible light strip, you will need a RGB controller.

Should you select 12 Volt (12v) or 24 Volt (24v)?
Depends on your application. The main difference between the two is the fact that the 24v strips can be ran for longer distances than the 12v strips can due to Voltage Drop. Voltage drop is the gradual decrease in voltage along a circuit. If your project requires a very long run of LEDs, we would recommend the 24v strips. However, there are also many projects that 12v is required (automotive or marine applications). Please feel free to live chat with us, or email us with questions. 
Before noticing any unwanted color variations or dimming at the end of your run of lights, it is recommended that you run no more than 32' in series when using 12v or 48' in series when using 24v.

What are the difference between waterproof IP65, IP67 and IP68 ?
1:Non-waterproof LED Strip: PCB (Printed Circuit Board) with 3M self-adhesive back.--(For Indoor).
2:Waterproof LED Strip--Surface Injection  IP65: PCB surface is encapsulated with plastic Gel, with self-adhesive 3M back, --(For Outdoor & Indoor).
3:Waterproof LED Strip--Silicon Tube IP67: PCB is encapsulated with silicon tube, with plastic fastener,better waterproof, --(For Outdoor).
4:Waterproof LED Strip--Whole Injection IP68: PCB both surface and back are encapsulated with plastic Gel, with plastic fastener, top level of waterproof, --(For Outdoor).

Use of environmental conditions
1). LED strips installation must be operated by professionals.
2). For avoiding LED get vulcanized, LED strip should be installed in the environment where does not has oil and corrosive substances. Such as these substances which contain Sulphur、Bromine、Iodine and Chlorine. Some other chemical elements which will cause Aromatic hydrocarbons releasing(such as: methylbenzene、xylene、methyl acetoacetate Ethyl acetate etc.).The environment in which includes strong acid and strong base.
3). For cutting LED strip operation, it is necessary to use the standard accessories provided by smartbrightLEDs (e.g. DC wire, end-cap, front-cap, adhesive, etc.), and according to the correct cutting and connecting method for the installation.
4). LED strip cannot be installed in some areas where water hazard might be formed, such as the surface of pits and ditches. And similar places in which rain and water may be accumulated easily.
5). Please do not strongly pull、crash the LED strips during  installation  process. And avoid squeezing and scratching LED strips with sharp objects.
6). During the warranty period, only defective products are acceptable to be replaced by the factory.  Factory is not responsible for other expenses because of replacement，such as transportation fee, installation fee, etc.
 

Cautions 1. In order to guarantee the LED life and the use environment, cannot make any force when the product lighting use to pull the power cables, forbids to collide, in order to avoid damages LED. 2. For better lighting effect of the product, each 5 meters strip must connect the main power source. 3. Must guarantee that each power source (GND) must be connected. 4. Should not be curving in the diameter 60mm following radian, please do not rebate, in order to avoid damage lamp bead or break. 5. Please follow the user manual for installation. 6. Please note the careful operation, in the power source connection's situation, will touch the alternating current supply end possibly to cause your safety. 7. In the actual application, the power source should retain 20% remainders, guaranteed that the sufficiency the voltage lightens LED. 8. Installs as far as possible the product in the appropriate environment. 9. Pays attention to the power cable in the installment process positive and negative extremely, please do not wrong, power source and product voltage to be whether correct, in order to avoid creates the product the damage.

** If you do not follow the above "Cautions" to operate and result in damaging the product, the factory will not accept maintenance and return.
