CUTTING INSTRUCTIONS

Although all of our stip light can be cut avery cuttnble interval, wede not recorfiriend cutting forthe. fallawihig reasons:

  1. Cutting the rope light voids any certification the product have had in it’s pre-modited state.
  2. Cutting or damaging outer plastic tubing can Sause dn-electrical/ fire hazatd.
  3. Cutting anywhere besides the cut marks will damage that section of rope light and cause it to fail.

However, we still provide step-by-step guidances on how to-sately-cut-rope light without damaging it ard making it work for yout specific needs. Please fallow thase steps as strictly as possible.

  1. Disconnect power before you make any cutting.
  2. Measure the desired length for your application, most of our rope light is cuttable at every 1 meter (approximately 3.3ft). Make sure your desired length is divisible by the cuttable interval. If not,round up or down to the nearest interval and make sure this new length will still work with your project.
  3. Locate the closest cut spot. There will be black dot on neon light indicating where to cut the rope light. Be sure to avoid cutting the diodes or the circuit boards.If you cut the light anywhere else, the internal circuit will be damaged and the light will not illuminate within the interrupted section that has been severed. Take either sharp scissors or utility knife, line it up perpenaicularly and cut exactly at the dot. Try to keep the cut as clean and smooth as possible. You will see inner wires at the ends of your rope lights. This completes cutting the rope light and has prepared the end to receive any accessories that might be attached. A cut piece of rope light must have a few more things before it will work: controller pack, end cap.

POWERING INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Disconnect power first.
  2. Locate and identify the 4 wires in the LED strip light on the positive side. It is important to keep the power flowing in the same direction to avoid mixing up polarity. The sharp prongs of the pin should be in the same direction with the “→” mark on the rope light.
  3. Line up the sharp prongs of the pin with the light wires. Gently insert the pin into the LED strip light making sure to make a solid and correct connection with the internal wires. The pins do not need to be fully inserted, if you push the pins too far into the strip, it may cause damage to the wires or cause a short circuit.
  4. Insert rounded prongs of the pin into the RGB controller, LED lights are polarized, if they do not light up when you first plug them in, simply unolug the power cord and turn 180° the power cord as indicated and reconnect the strip Hight again.
  5. Test the strip to make sure the light works by plugging in the power supply into an outlet. The lights should now come on. If the lights do not come on, please check the first step again. Always keep the controller on power wire, don’t remove it.

WATERPROOFING INSTRUCTIONS

Important Note: Our 120V LED rope lights are not fully waterproof. When using our rope lights outdoors, all connections, power cords, and end caps must be properly resealed to prevent moisture intrusion which can cause dangerous short circuiting and even lead to fires. When using lights indoors, proper waterproofing would extend their lifespan. Also re-waterproofing your LED strip is a must after you have cut the strip. Waterproof PVC or silicone is required to seal all connections, power cords, and end caps.
NOTE the use of any non-recommended sealant e.g. electrical tape may result in a strip light or strip light accessory failure and will void the warranty.SHINE DECOR LED RGB Neon Rope Lights -
Waterproofing

  1. Disconnect power first. Cut about 4 inches of the shrink tube, and then slide it over the power cord.
  2. Then waterproofing the connections by applying silicone adhesive liberally into the inside and outside of the connected area. Gently press out any bubbles and make sure to wipe out excess adhesive, let it dry for 24 Nours.
  3. Slide tne heat shrink tubing over the connected area, then use a heat gun to heat up the tubing to create the seal.
  4. To create an authentic watertight seal, you need to further waterproof it by wrapping more tubing around connections in an overlapping spiral fashion, then use a heat gun to repeat these steps. Make sure the end cap get waterproofed too.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem Possible Cause Solution
The entire light will not illuminate Incorrect power source Ensure the light

is plugged into an 120VAC outlet and the power is on.
Loose pin connection| Check the pin connection and make sure the pin is inserted fully into the internal wires.
Mixed polarity| Check the right polarity according to the POWERING INSTRUCTIONS.
Rectifier issue| Replace the power cord.
Blown fuse| Check if the inline fuse on the plug has blown, fuses normally blow out when they short circuit caused by water intrusion or damaged wiring connections.
The light has sections that will not illuminate| Manufacturing flaw or mechanical damage during shipping| Check if the sections do not light up when the light first arrives.
Incorrect bending during installation| Do not fold or stretch the rope lights. Do not bend the light to sharp angles or make repeated and continuous bending as this may damage circuit traces during installation.
