LED Light Strip For General Home Use

Why should I use an aluminum profile?

  • provides an aesthetically pleasing finish
  • provides a good clean mounting surface for the LED strips to bond onto
  • provides a good heat sink to increase LED life (wood ,plastic are insulators and can over-heat LED's)
  • provides physical protection
  • provides light diffusion to give even illumination
  • can be cut to exact length using a saw suitable for cutting aluminum

Step 3: Choose a power supply

All our LED strip has a wattage rating per meter (3.28 ft).

Work out the the total meterage of your project and add a safety loss factor of 20%. E.g., if your desired LED strip has a wattage rating of 4.8 watts per meter and you require a total of 10 meters (32.80 ft), then you need 10 x 4.8W * 120% = 57.60W

Then round up to the nearest waterproof of non-waterproof power supply wattage rating. In this case, an indoor 75W unit or an outdoor 60W unit.
