DIY Custom Light Fixtures A must-have for DIY enthusiasts building custom light panels, signage, or art installations. This connector provides a stable and easy-to-use central junction for creative projects that require a four-way split.

How to Use This Cross Shape Solderless Connector

Turn off the power supply before installation.
Ensure you are using a compatible 12mm wide 5-pin non-waterproof RGBW LED strip.
Cut the LED strip cleanly along the designated copper cut lines.
Open the white clasps on all four sides of the cross connector.
Slide one strip end into each of the four ports, ensuring the strip sits underneath the metal contact pins.
Verify that the polarity markings (+, G, R, B, W) on all four strips are aligned correctly to ensure proper function.
Press down firmly on each white clasp until it snaps shut, securing the strips in place.
Gently tug each strip to confirm it is held securely. Reconnect power to test your new layout.

⚠ Precautions

This connector is designed exclusively for 12mm wide, 5-pin non-waterproof RGBW LED strips. It is not compatible with 10mm strips, waterproof/coated strips, or strips with a different pin count (2, 3, 4, or 6-pin).
Incorrectly aligning the polarity (+, G, R, B, W) can cause the lights to function improperly or not at all. Always double-check alignment before closing the clasps.
Ensure the total current of your connected LED strips does not exceed the 5A maximum rating of the connector to prevent overheating.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Will this 5 pin led strip light connector work with waterproof RGBW strips?

A:No, this solderless connector is designed for non-waterproof (IP20) strips only. The silicone coating on waterproof strips will prevent the pins from making a secure connection.

Q: Can I use this connector for a 10mm wide RGBW strip?

A:No, this connector is specifically machined for 12mm wide PCBs. Using it with a 10mm strip will result in a loose and unreliable connection.

Q: What is a '十' or cross-shape connector used for?

A:It allows you to connect four separate RGBW LED strips at a single 90-degree intersection, creating a clean four-way junction point. It is perfect for making grid patterns or other complex layouts.

Q: Is any soldering required for this led strip solderless connector?

A:No, this is a completely solderless connector. It uses a simple but effective clamp-on mechanism to create a secure electrical connection.

Q: Does this work with standard 4-pin RGB strips?

A:No, this is a 5-pin connector designed exclusively for RGBW LED strips that have five contact points (+, R, G, B, W). It will not work with 4-pin RGB strips.

Q: How do I ensure the colors match up across all four connected strips?

A:Before closing the clasps, make sure the polarity markings (e.g., '+', 'G', 'R', 'B', 'W') on each strip end are aligned with the corresponding pins inside the connector. All strips should be oriented the same way.
