3. Setup and Installation

Proper installation is crucial for optimal performance and longevity. Follow these steps carefully:

3.1 Pre-Installation Check

  1. Test the Lights: Before mounting, connect all light strips to the control unit and power adapter. Plug into a power source to ensure all lights function correctly.
  2. Plan Placement: Determine the desired path for your lights. For an optimal wall-washing effect, the light strip should be installed 2-4 inches (5-10 cm) away from the wall surface. Use the provided positioning card for accurate measurement.

3.2 Surface Preparation

Clean the installation surface thoroughly with a cloth or tissue to remove any dust, dirt, or moisture. Allow the surface to dry completely before proceeding.

3.3 Mounting the Lights

The Gefolly lights offer dual installation options:

  1. Adhesive Tape: Each light features VHB adhesive tape on its back. Peel off the protective film and firmly press the light against the cleaned surface for at least 5 seconds. This method is suitable for quick installation on various surfaces like concrete, metal, plastic, and wood.
  2. Screw Holes: For enhanced security and long-term use, it is highly recommended to use the provided screws and anchors. Each light has a designated screw hole. Mark the positions, drill pilot holes if necessary, and secure each light with a screw.

Important:

  • Do not overstretch the wires between the lights. Allow for some flexibility in the installation to prevent damage.
  • Ensure all waterproof connectors are securely fastened, especially the end caps for the last light string, to maintain IP67/IP65 rating.
