LED strip SMD 5050 12V 19.2W/m RGBWW 60LED/m IP65 5m

LED Strip - Construction

The strip uses SMD technology with LEDs in a 5050 package. The underside has factory-applied double-sided adhesive tape to aid installation on a suitably prepared surface.

Control of LED strip

The strip requires a PWM controller supporting the 4 control channels used by the RGBWW configuration.

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

An RGBW LED strip combines three independent color channels — red, green, and blue — with an additional channel of native white light produced by a phosphor-converted LED. Unlike a standard RGB strip, white light is not simulated by mixing the three colors, but generated by dedicated white LEDs, making it more natural, efficient, and suitable for functional lighting as well.

Depending on the version, the additional channel may emit warm white light — RGBWW, neutral white — RGBNW, or cool white — RGBCW. The designation RGBW is also commonly used as a general term for this four-channel family of LED strips.

The strip requires a compatible 4-channel RGBW controller that independently regulates the R, G, B, and W channels, most commonly using PWM modulation. This allows the user to select colors, adjust brightness, activate dynamic effects, and use a full-quality white light channel.

RGBW LED strips combine decorative color lighting with practical white illumination. They are intended for advanced lighting installations in furniture, ceilings, recesses, display cases, and architectural features where a single system is expected to provide both color scenes and everyday functional lighting or illumination.

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.

LED strip 5050 RGBW IP65 for versatile lighting

Build mood lighting that looks clean and works reliably. This LED strip 5050 RGBW IP65 combines RGB colors with a warm white tone. It gives you flexible scenes for living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens, and displays. The 5050 SMD LEDs deliver stable color and solid brightness. The ECO balance helps keep power use reasonable. The IP65 coating protects against dust and water splashes.

Main benefits of the LED strip 5050 RGBW IP65

• 300 LEDs for even light and smooth effects
• RGB + warm white for color scenes and cozy ambience
• IP65 protection for kitchens, bathrooms, and sheltered outdoor areas
• Works great in aluminum profiles for better cooling and a premium finish
• Easy cutting at marked points, then connect by soldering or clips

How it works: SMD 5050 explained

SMD 5050 means a larger LED package than smaller formats. It supports strong, consistent output and stable color mixing. With RGB plus warm white, you can switch from decorative colors to practical warm lighting. The result looks natural and comfortable in everyday interiors.

Where to use it

• Furniture, shelves, niches, and under-cabinet lighting
• Ceiling coves, wall accents, and architectural details
• Signage, displays, and product highlights
• Aluminum profiles for linear, glare-controlled light

Power supply and voltage drop (power injection)

Choose a constant-voltage LED power supply matched to the total wattage. Add 20–30% headroom for stable operation. Look for protections like OVP, OCP, SCP, and OTP. Active PFC can improve overall performance.

For long runs, use power injection to prevent dimming. Feed power about every 5 m for 12V systems, or 10 m for 24V systems. Use a star wiring layout and proper cable gauge. Seal connections well in humid locations.

FAQ

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

Is IP65 enough for bathrooms?
IP65 handles splashes and dust. Avoid direct, long-term water exposure and protect joints.

Do I need an aluminum profile?
It is recommended. A profile improves cooling, extends lifespan, and looks more premium.
