Is this connector solderless?

Yes, it is solderless. However, unlike simple snap connectors, it requires pliers to press down the metal pins and pierce the strip's circuit board for a secure connection.

Will this work with standard SMD LED strips like 2835 or 5050?

This connector is specifically designed for the unique circuit layout and structure of COB LED strips. We do not recommend using it for standard SMD strips as it may not provide a reliable connection.

Can I use this for waterproof COB strips?

No, this connector is designed for use with IP20 non-waterproof COB LED strips only. It will not work with strips that have a silicone or waterproof coating.

Application Scenarios

Under-Cabinet & Kitchen Lighting Perfect for bridging gaps over sinks, stoves, or other appliances in a kitchen installation. The flexible cable allows you to maintain a continuous run of light without dark spots where separate power sources would be needed.

Architectural Cove & Soffit Lighting Easily navigate the sharp corners and angles found in cove lighting. This jumper allows for clean turns and connections between straight runs of single color COB LED strip lights, ensuring a professional, dotless finish.

Custom DIY & Display Case Lighting Ideal for custom-built furniture, retail displays, or bookshelf lighting projects. Connect multiple short segments of COB strips together to perfectly fit the dimensions of your unique project without the hassle of soldering.

How to Use This COB Strip Connector

Ensure your strip is a 2-pin, non-waterproof (IP20) COB LED strip matching the connector's width (5mm, 8mm, or 10mm).
Carefully slide the end of the first COB LED strip into one side of the connector. Make sure it is fully seated under the metal contact pins.
Using a pair of pliers, apply firm and even pressure to press the metal pins completely down. This action pierces the strip's PCB to establish a secure electrical connection.
Repeat steps 2 and 3 for the second COB strip segment on the other end of the connector.
Confirm the connection is secure and test the lights to ensure a proper connection has been made before final installation.

⚠ Precautions

This connector is designed for IP20 non-waterproof COB strips only. Do not use with silicone-coated or waterproof strips.
Ensure the polarity markings on your LED strips align correctly when making the connection.
Pliers are required for proper installation. A standard pair of slip-joint or channel-lock pliers works well.
Do not force the strip into a connector of the wrong size, as this can damage both the strip and the connector.
