Question 1

Can i cut the strip, cause is to long?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the strip can be cut.  The 5050 LED strip has clearly indicated cut lines.  Also, the 5050 LED 3 pin strip can be connected with other 5050 LED 3 pin strips or extension cables using connector kits.

Question 2

Can the two 16.4 sections be connected in series or do they have to be parallel?

Accepted Answer

Not only does it clearly advertise as a 32.8 Foot long Light Strip, they advertise a picture clearly stating, “32.8ft Longer Light Strip 2x5 led strip lights decorates your whole room.” No where does it mention it’s two 16 foot strips that can only be parallel and that you’d need to purchase two of these boxes to actually be 32.8 feet and go the whole perimeter of a room. So the Captain Amazing reply is false, just like the advertisement. Why wouldn’t this company just be specific? Advertise correctly instead of misrepresentation. Let the customer know it’s 16.4 feet and you’ll need to purchase two boxes if you need the whole room or 32.8 feet!!

Question 3

Can I add more led light roll to extend lengths to be 120’ ?

Accepted Answer

Yes you can, but keep in mind that the controller can program certain amount of serially connected LEDs that equals exactly one strip, no more, so no daisy chaining. To control 2 strips, you connect strips in parallel, using provided Y (2-to-1) splitter. To control more strips you need to get  (3-to-1) or (4-to-1) splitter, so you get star-like configuration. Then with help of additional cable extenders you can organize them in one long strip. Keep in mind the chasing effect will not continue from one strip to another - it will repeat itself in each segment. Also you may need to replace provided power supply with stronger one (more Amps, same 12V) to control more than 2 strips.

Question 4

There doesn't seem to be a consistent answer about cutting.  in fact the vendor says both yes and no throughout the q&a pages.  help?

Accepted Answer

I placed mine on top of my cabinets and needed to cut them and splice them. My cabinets have a gap where my window is. I used https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07TJF981M/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s03?ie=UTF8&psc=1 to make the splice worked great.  I tested the lights before  making the splice and they did turn on. I did not test them to see if they had all functions but from the few minutes I did play with the cut section it seemed to have all functions.
