Do I need to solder with this connector?

No, this is a completely solderless led connector. It uses a piercing mechanism that requires a standard pair of pliers to secure the connection.

Will this connector create a dark spot or gap in my COB strip lighting?

No, it is specifically designed with a transparent housing that allows light to pass through, maintaining a continuous and seamless line of light.

Can I use this for RGB or CCT COB strips?

No, this is a 2-pin connector designed exclusively for single color (monochromatic) COB strips which have one positive and one negative contact.

What tools do I need for installation?

You will need a pair of standard pliers to press the metal pins down firmly, which allows them to pierce the COB strip's circuit board and make contact.

Is this connector reusable?

While it may be possible to reopen the connector, it is designed for a single, permanent installation. Reusing it may result in a less reliable connection.

How to Use This Solderless COB Connector

Ensure the power is disconnected from your LED strip before installation.
Select the connector that matches your COB strip's PCB width (5mm, 8mm, or 10mm).
Slide the end of your first 2-pin COB LED strip segment into one side of the connector.
Align the positive (+) and negative (-) solder points on the strip with the corresponding metal pins inside the connector.
Insert the second COB strip segment into the other side, ensuring the polarity (+ to + and - to -) is correctly aligned.
Using a pair of pliers, press down firmly and evenly on the metal contact points on the connector's cover. You will feel them click as they pierce through the strip's circuit board.
The piercing action establishes a secure electrical connection.
Tug gently on the strips to confirm they are held securely. You can now restore power to test the connection.

⚠ Precautions

This connector is designed for IP20 non-waterproof single color COB LED strips only.
Applying firm, even pressure with pliers is essential for the pins to properly pierce the PCB and create a reliable connection.
Double-check the polarity (+ and -) alignment before closing and pressing the connector to prevent damage to your LED strips.
