Can I use this for RGB or CCT COB strips?

No, this is a 2-pin connector designed exclusively for single color COB LED strips.

What makes this different from connectors for SMD strips like 5050 or 2835?

This connector's piercing contacts are specifically engineered for the unique circuit layout of dotless COB strips, ensuring a more reliable connection than a generic SMD connector.

Is this connector reusable?

It is designed for a single, permanent piercing connection to ensure maximum reliability. We do not recommend reusing it.

Where can I learn the basics of installing LED strips?

We have several helpful guides for beginners: How to cut led strip lights?, How to connect two light strips together?, and How to connect single color led strip lights?.

How to Use This Connector

Ensure power is disconnected before starting.
Select the correct connector size (8mm or 10mm) that matches the PCB width of your COB strip.
Insert the COB strip end or the 2-conductor wire into the appropriate slot. Ensure the positive and negative sides are correctly aligned.
Using a standard pair of pliers, firmly and evenly press down on the metal contact piece until it is fully seated. This action pierces the strip's circuit or wire's insulation to establish a connection.

⚠ Precautions

This connector is designed for single-use.
Double-check that the connector width matches your COB strip's PCB width exactly.
Ensure a firm, even press with pliers to guarantee the contacts fully pierce the circuit/insulation.
For indoor, dry location use only. Not waterproof.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do I need to strip wires before inserting them?

A:No, the insulation-piercing design creates a connection directly through the wire's outer sheath, saving time and effort.

Q: How do I connect a COB strip to a power supply with this?

A:Use the strip-to-wire function. Connect one end to your COB strip and the other end to the 2-conductor lead wire coming from your power supply.

Q: How do I choose between the 8mm and 10mm version?

A:You must measure the width of your COB strip's circuit board (PCB). The connector width must exactly match your strip's PCB width for a proper and secure fit.
