LED strip SMD 3528 12V 4.8W/m yellow 60LED/m IP65 5m

LED Strip - Construction

The strip uses SMD technology with LEDs in a 3528 package. The underside has factory-applied double-sided adhesive tape to aid installation on a suitably prepared surface.

Control of LED strip

The strip can be powered directly from a suitable 12V power supply. An optional PWM controller enables brightness adjustment.

Important information

The stated power is a rated or theoretical value based on the parameters of the components used. Actual power consumption may be lower due to component tolerances, voltage drop and operating conditions.

Power and installation

The strip does not require an additional power-injection point when its length does not exceed 5m. Above this length, consider starting the next separately powered run, supplying the run at its far end, or adding another power point after the indicated length.

The 5m value is based on the electrical properties of the strip PCB. It indicates the length at which supply-voltage drop should not cause a noticeable reduction in LED brightness along the length of strip. Above this length, a brightness difference may become visible. If it remains acceptable to the end customer, the final power-feed arrangement is the responsibility of the installation designer or user.

Light emitted by LED strip

A single-color mono LED strip emits yellow light. It is a single-channel light source — all LEDs operate together, without independent color mixing. The mono LED strip family includes, among others, red, green, blue, violet, pink, amber, yellow, UV, and near-UV models.

The color of the emitted light depends on the spectral distribution of the LED radiation, characterized among other parameters by its dominant or peak wavelength. Red and amber belong to the long-wavelength region of the visible spectrum, yellow and green occupy its middle range, while blue and violet are located toward the short-wavelength, higher-frequency end. UV radiation lies outside the visible spectrum, whereas near-UV is located close to its boundary and may be perceived as deep violet while strongly exciting fluorescence in certain materials.

Red, green, and blue are the primary colors of the additive RGB color model. In multi-channel systems, mixing them makes it possible to produce secondary colors — for example, yellow from red and green, and magenta or pink from red and blue. This does not mean, however, that a single-color yellow, amber, or violet strip mixes RGB channels. In a mono strip, the specified color is produced directly by the LEDs used or by their specifically engineered spectral characteristics. Pink and magenta are non-spectral colors — they do not correspond to a single wavelength, but rather to a specific combination of spectral components. Spectral violet, on the other hand, can be produced directly in the short-wavelength region of visible light.

Perceived brightness depends not only on radiant power, but also on the sensitivity of human vision. Under photopic, or daylight, vision conditions, maximum sensitivity occurs near 555 nm. For this reason, yellow-green and green light may appear particularly intense at the same optical power. Under scotopic, or night-vision, conditions occurring at very low illumination levels, peak sensitivity shifts toward approximately 507 nm, in the blue-green region. Red and amber then become relatively less visible.

Blue light has a very distinctive appearance and is highly effective at attracting attention, particularly in large, simple shapes viewed from a greater distance. At low luminance, however, small blue elements may appear less sharp, slightly blurred, or surrounded by a visible halo. This results, among other factors, from the chromatic aberration of the human eye and reduced visual acuity in the short-wavelength region of the spectrum. For this reason, blue is not the best choice for small lettering, thin outlines, or complex symbols where maximum sharpness and detail legibility are critical. It performs very well, however, as a strong signaling and decorative accent.

For static operation, a mono LED strip does not require a controller — it only needs to be connected to a correctly selected power supply. Light intensity adjustment requires a compatible single-channel LED dimmer or controller, most commonly using PWM modulation. In the case of UV and near-UV strips, the model should be selected primarily according to its actual wavelength and intended application, because apparent brightness is not a reliable measure of radiant power.

LED strip - product overview

The strip operates at 12V and has a density of 60LED/m with an IP65 ingress-protection rating.

Sales unit of led strip

The sales unit includes a factory-prepared reel of LED strip with a length of 5m.

LED strip - power supply selection

The strip requires a power supply with an output voltage of 12V. Guidance: select a power supply with an optimum 30% power reserve above the LED strip demand.

Amber LED strip 300 LEDs – premium light with IP65

Build a warm, eye-catching glow with this amber LED strip 300 LEDs in a premium finish. The high diode density creates a smooth, even light line. It works great in aluminium profiles and clean architectural accents. The IP65 coating helps protect the strip from dust and water splashes. This makes it a smart choice for kitchens, bathrooms, and covered outdoor areas.

Where to use an amber LED strip 300 LEDs

This strip is designed for decorative lighting and visual guidance. The amber colour adds atmosphere and improves visibility without harsh glare. Use it to highlight shapes, edges, and details. It also looks professional in display and signage projects.

• furniture, shelves, niches, and under-cabinet lighting
• ceilings, coves, and linear light in aluminium profiles
• shop displays, exhibitions, and brand accents
• architectural details in sheltered outdoor zones

Premium IP65 LED tape – what it means in practice

A premium IP65 LED tape has an added protective layer. It supports stable work in humid places. Keep connectors and joints sealed if the area is exposed. For the best thermal performance, mount the strip in an aluminium profile.

Installation and power tips

Choose a constant-voltage power supply matched to the total wattage. Add a 20–30% power reserve for long-term stability. For longer runs, use power injection to avoid voltage drop. This keeps brightness and colour consistent across the whole length.

• cut only at marked cut points
• connect by soldering or quality connectors
• use thicker wires for longer distances
• seal connections in humid environments

Key benefits

• 300 LEDs for an even, continuous glow
• amber colour for cosy decor and clear accents
• IP65 protection against dust and water splashes
• ideal for profiles, clean lines, and premium projects

FAQ

Which power supply should I choose?
Calculate total power and add 20–30% headroom. Pick a unit with safety protections for reliable use.

When do I need power injection?
Use it on long runs or when the end looks dimmer. Extra feeding stabilises brightness and colour.

Can I shorten the strip?
Yes. Cut only at the marked points. Soldering gives the most durable connection.
