What is the IP rating and where can I use this LED strip?

How many colors can the LED strip display?

Can I control the brightness of the lights?

What kind of USB power source do I need?

Can I connect multiple LED strips together?
This model is a single 5-meter strip and is not designed for connecting multiple strips end-to-end to extend the length. It can be cut to size.
Troubleshooting
LED strip does not turn on
Ensure the USB cable is securely connected to both the LED strip and a functional USB power source. Try a different USB port or power adapter.
Remote control is not working
Check that the battery in the remote is correctly inserted and has power. Ensure there is a clear line of sight between the remote and the IR receiver on the LED strip's cable. Try moving closer to the receiver.
Lights are flickering or inconsistent
Verify the USB power source provides sufficient and stable power. An underpowered source can cause erratic behavior. Ensure all connections are secure.
Adhesive is not sticking well
Ensure the mounting surface is clean, dry, and smooth. For difficult surfaces, consider using additional mounting clips or a stronger adhesive tape specifically designed for LED strips.
