1. Introduction
Thank you for choosing the TENDIST 15M Flexible Neon LED RGB Strip Light. This manual provides essential information for the safe installation, operation, and maintenance of your LED strip light. Please read it thoroughly before use and retain it for future reference.
2. Important Safety Instructions
- The LED neon strip and its controller are IP68 waterproof, suitable for outdoor use. However, the power adapter is NOT waterproof and must be protected from water and moisture.
