CUTTING INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT NOTES:
Although COB rope lights can be cut at designated cut mark. We do not
recommend cutting for the following reasons:
- Cutting rope lights voids any certification the product have had in it’s pre-modified state.
- Cutting or damaging outer tubing can cause an electrical/ fire hazard.
- Cutting anywhere besides cut marks will damage that section of rope light and cause it to fail.
However, we still provide step-by-step guidance on how to safely cut rope light without damaging it and making it work for your specific needs. Please follow these steps as strictly as possible.
- Disconnect power before cutting.
- Measure the desired length for your application, COB lights is cuttable at every 4.5 centimeter or 1.79inches. There will be marks indicating where to cut the rope light. Take sharp scissors or utility knife, line it perpendicularly and cut exactly at the mark.
- Attach end cap to the end of light strip.
- Test the light by lighting it up.
POWERING INSTRUCTIONS
Important Notes:
- This connection is only suitable for non-waterproof strips.
- When you cover it, you will probably end up covering one or two lamp beads. This can cause dark areas on the strips.
- Due to it being clamped inside, the external tension is not enough. The connection could fall away after long-term use.
- Disconnect power first.
- Open the lid of the weld-free buckle on power cord.
- Peel off about an inch of the light strip.
- Snap the light into the middle position of the buckle.
- Close the lid firmly so that the copper thorns inside the buckle pierce the light strip.
- Attach end cap to the end of light strip.
- Check and secure all connections. Test the light by lighting it up.
SPLICING INSTRUCTIONS’
Important Notes:
- This connection is only suitable for non-waterproof strips.
- When you cover it, you will probably end up covering one or two lamp beads. This can cause dark areas on the strips.
- Due to it being clamped inside, the external tension is not enough. The connection could fall away after long-term use.
- Disconnect power first.
- Peel off about an inch of the light strip.
- Insert neon lights into the clear plastic case. Make sure the light goes in the right direction as depicted in the picture.
- Press the light with case into the middle position of the buckle. Press the case firmly so that the copper thorns inside the buckle pierce the light strip.
- Repeat steps above on the other side.
- Check and secure all connections. Test the light by lighting it up.
WATERPOOFING INSTRUCTIONS
Important Note:
All connections, power cord connection part, end caps, splice connection part
are non-waterproof and must be properly resealed to prevent moisture intrusion
which can cause dangerous short circuiting and even lead to fires.
- Disconnect power first.
- Cut about 4 inches of heat shrink tube, and then slide it over the power cord.
- Waterproof 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 hours.
- Slide the heat shrink tube over the connected areq, then use a heat gun to heat up the tubing to create the seal.
- 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.
