2. Product Components
The BTF-LIGHTING FCOB CCT LED Strip Kit includes the following components:
- FCOB LED Light Strip (5 meters, 640 LEDs/meter, 3000K-6000K Tunable CCT)
- RF Dimmable Controller
- 24V 3A 72W Power Adapter
3. Features
- Adjustable Color Temperature: Seamlessly switch between warm white (3000K) and cool white (6000K) to suit various moods and tasks. The RF controller provides precise control over the color temperature.
- High Brightness & Quality: The FCOB (Flip Chip On Board) design directly integrates LED chips, offering 640 chips per meter for superior brightness and uniform light output. It delivers 5000 lumens (100LM/W) for warm white and 6000 lumens (100LM/W) for cool white.
- High CRI (Color Rendering Index): With a CRI of 90+, colors appear vibrant and true to life under this lighting.
- Uniform Illumination: FCOB technology eliminates visible individual LED dots, providing a continuous, glare-free, and soft light output.
- Cuttable Design: The LED strip can be cut at designated marks to fit specific lengths, allowing for customized installations.
- Easy Installation: Equipped with high-quality, heat-resistant double-sided adhesive for secure and straightforward mounting.
- Indoor Use Only: The strip has an IP30 rating, making it suitable exclusively for dry indoor environments.

4. Setup and Installation
Follow these steps for proper installation of your LED strip kit:
- Prepare the Surface: Ensure the installation surface is dry, clean, and smooth. Dust, oil, or moisture can compromise the adhesive's effectiveness.
- Measure and Cut (Optional): If a shorter length is required, measure the desired length and cut the LED strip only at the designated cutting marks (usually indicated by a copper pad and scissor icon). Cutting elsewhere will damage the circuit.
- Attach the LED Strip: Peel off the backing from the double-sided adhesive tape on the back of the LED strip. Carefully press the strip onto the prepared surface, ensuring firm and even contact along its entire length.
- Connect the Controller: Connect the FCOB LED strip to the RF Dimmable Controller. Ensure the polarity is correct (usually indicated by arrows or markings on the connectors).
- Connect the Power Adapter: Plug the 24V 3A 72W Power Adapter into the RF Dimmable Controller. Then, plug the power adapter into a standard electrical outlet.
- Test the Lights: Once all connections are secure, use the RF remote control to test the LED strip's functionality.

5. Operating Instructions
The LED strip is controlled using the included RF Dimmable Controller. The remote control has a range of approximately 15-20 meters (49-66 feet) in open spaces.
Remote Control Functions:
- Power Button: Turns the LED strip ON or OFF.
- Brightness Adjustment: Increase or decrease the light intensity.
- Color Temperature Adjustment: Adjust the color temperature from warm white (3000K) to cool white (6000K).
- Preset Scenes: Select from various pre-programmed lighting scenes.
- Dynamic Modes: Activate different dynamic lighting effects.
- Delay Off: Some controllers may feature a 60-second delay to turn off the lights.

6. Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your LED strip kit, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the LED strip with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Do not use liquid cleaners or abrasive materials, as they can damage the strip or its adhesive.
- Inspection: Periodically check the connections between the LED strip, controller, and power adapter to ensure they are secure.
- Environment: As the product is IP30 rated, ensure it is not exposed to water, high humidity, or extreme temperatures. Use only in dry indoor environments.
- Power Supply: Always use the provided 24V 3A 72W power adapter. Using an incompatible power supply can damage the LED strip and void the warranty.
7. Troubleshooting
