How to Use This 6-Pin Hippo Connector

  1. Select the correct connector version for your strip: IP20 for bare strips or IP65 for strips with a silicone coating.
  2. If using a waterproof IP65 strip, carefully remove a small section of the top silicone coating to expose the six copper contact pads.
  3. Open the transparent hinged clasp on the hippo connector.
  4. Carefully slide the end of the 12mm RGBCCT LED strip into the connector's slot. Ensure the six copper pads on the strip align perfectly with the six metal pins inside the connector.
  5. Press the clasp down firmly until it snaps securely shut. This action pierces the strip's PCB, creating a solid electrical connection.
  6. Use the attached 3-meter wire to connect to your RGBCCT controller, power supply, or another wire run.
⚠ Precautions
  • Always double-check that the polarity markings on the LED strip align with the wire colors to avoid damage.
  • This connector is designed exclusively for 12mm wide, 6-pin RGBCCT LED strips. It is not compatible with other widths, pin counts, or strip types.
  • Ensure the connector clasp is fully and securely closed before applying power to the system.
  • This is a low-voltage DC accessory. Do not connect it directly to high-voltage AC power.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the main advantage of this connector's 3-meter wire?

A:The integrated 3-meter (9.84ft) wire is a key feature, eliminating the need for additional wire splicing when your power source is located far from the LED strip's starting point.

Q: Do I need to solder anything to use this connector?

A:No, this is one of our solderless led strip connectors. It uses a secure hippo-style clamp mechanism to create a reliable connection without any soldering.

Q: Will this work with my waterproof RGBCCT strips?

A:Yes, it will. Be sure to select the "Waterproof IP65" version from the options. You will need to carefully peel back the silicone coating over the copper contacts on the strip before inserting it.

Q: Is this connector compatible with 4-pin RGB or 5-pin RGBW strips?

A:No, this connector is specifically designed for the pin layout and 12mm width of 6-pin RGBCCT LED strips and will not work with other types.

Q: What are the rgb led pins for on an RGBCCT strip?

A:An RGBCCT strip has 6 pins: one for power (V+), one for each color (Red, Green, Blue), one for Warm White, and one for Cool White, allowing for full color and white temperature control.

Q: Can I cut the 3-meter wire if it's too long for my project?

A:Absolutely. You can cut the wire to your required length and strip the ends to make your connection to a controller or power supply.
