IMPORTANT: FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS BELOW TO AVOID POOR PRODUCT PERFORMANCE OR FAILURE.

Maximum Run Length

Colour and lumen output will be affected if maximum length is exceeded. Test conducted at maximum brightness using 12-volt driver. Note: Maximum length of pixel strip run is limited by maximum universes of data.

Colour Consistency
To achieve optimal colour consistency across multiple strips, we recommend using those from the same manufacturing batch together wherever possible. Please check your batch numbers - these can be found on the product label.
Adhesive Application
 The strip will not adhere to textured or low surface energy materials.
 The best surface for long lasting adhesion is clean raw metal.
 Clean substrate with alcohol and a clean cloth.  Peel off protective backing to reveal adhesive.  Apply pressure when adhesive fixing to substrate.
Thermal Management
 These strips produce heat. Thermal management must be considered.
 The more LEDs per metre, the more heat.  ENTTEC recommends using an aluminium profile to
manage heat.  Each application is different. ENTTEC recommends
testing a section of strip in its finished environment to ensure the thermal management is satisfactory.

 Select the most suitable option from below. Solder or crimp is recommended to combine multiple wires.

 If wire colours vary and you are unsure, please contact ENTTEC or your supplier for further

advice.

Voltage Drop Testing
Use multimeter to test for voltage drop test where power is injected. If problems occur also meter the end of the strip.
Push probes through protective silicone to make contact.
