Key Product Features

• Vibrant Red Illumination: Emits a solid, vivid red light set against a clean white base background for optimal brightness and reflection.

• High-Density Layout: Built with 5050 SMD LEDs (housing 3 ultra-bright micro-diodes per chip) at a density of 60 LEDs per meter, totaling 300 LEDs across the entire 5-meter roll.

• Weather-Resistant Coating: Features a protective water-resistant outer layer to guard against moisture, dust, and light elements, making it ideal for interior or protected exterior/marine setups.

• Flexible & Customizable:

  • Low-profile build measuring 10mm wide with a wide 120-degree viewing angle.

  • Can be safely cut and customized at designated intervals (every 3rd LED) to fit unique installation lengths.

• Peel-and-Stick Application: Pre-backed with strong 3M double-sided adhesive tape for secure mounting on smooth, clean surfaces.

• Power Efficiency: Operates on a standard 12-volt DC system and maintains a low power draw (approximately 4.5 amps for the full 5-meter strip).
