Features
Our range of IP68 LED tape is fully water resistant making it the ideal choice for external lighting applications. Although its main purpose is for use outdoors it can also be used internally, especially in wet areas such as bathrooms or steam rooms.
The single colour warm white 2700K, 3000K and cool white 4000K versions contains a new COB LED chip type that has 480 LEDs per metre offering a seamless array of light, similar to a fluorescent.
Our latest edition to the IP68 LED tape range is the RGBW and RGBWW versions. These are a combination of colour changing and cool or warm white strips in one neat, easy to install tape. These types of LED strips provide a combination of mood lighting and ambient lighting. Ideal for situations when you want a normal white light or if you want to switch to a colour change effect. Providing ambient and mood lighting in one.
It is easy to install, it has a self adhesive backing and can also be stuck to a surface using mounting clips. Priced per metre, our standard stock lengths are 10 metre reels which can be cut down to the exact length you require. One of the key advantages of using LED tape is that it allows you to illuminate the exact length or area you need to, unlike a fluorescent fitting that is supplied in specific lengths.
IP68 LED tape is factory sealed in a clear silicone coating which provides superior water and dust protection. The silicone IP68 coating is more robust than IP65 allowing it to deal with the harsh elements of outdoors and doesn't require an additional profile rail to protect it. It can even be fully submersed into a pond or water feature. Please note that no push on connectors are available for this range, and the total meterage ordered online will be sent as a single length up to 10M. If you wish to cut this into multiple lengths, then you would be required to solder a new connection onto the tape and seal it accordingly. If you require multiple lengths, please email a list of your requirements and we can cut and solder this to your exact specifications.

120 Degrees Brand SpecificationsLED Strip Fit CRI SpecificationsCRI stands for Colour Rendering Index. It is a measurement of how well a light source renders the true colour of an object compared with natural daylight.
Rated out of 100, with daylight scoring a perfect 100. Lights with 90 CRI and above are classed as being high CRI. Lights with 80 CRI are the industry standard.
90 Ra Cap Type Integrated LED Colour Temperature SpecificationsMost of the LED lights we offer are available in the big 3 colour temperatures which are:2700K - Extra warm white has a warmer tone, like a halogen, although not quite as orange.3000K - Warm white is a mid range colour tone. Not as orange as 2700K and not as harsh as 4000K. This is the most popular colour temperature.4000K - Cool white (or neutral white), although clearer and slightly brighter than the others, it can make a room feel cold and clinical. Used correctly in the right environment it can make a room appear more modern.If you're unsure about colour temperatures we have colour temperature adjustable downlights available. These downlights contain multiple colour temperatures that can be changed either by a dip switch, wall switch or App. More information about them can be found here.If you want a brighter light then choose something with more lumens. The brightness difference in colour temperatures is barely 5%.Dimensions Located Below Specifications Table Dimmable Yes GTiN 612292192471 IP Rating SpecificationsThis is the resistance to dust and moisture. The first digit is for the resistance to dust and the second digit is for moisture.
Anything higher than IP44 can be used in bathroom zones 1 and 2.
An IP65 rating offers a higher resistance and is generally used outdoors.
An IP68 is fully water resistant and can be submersed in water, up to 1M in depth.
IP68 Life Expectancy 50,000 Hours Product Type SpecificationsLED Tape Sku LEDST602835IP68* Voltage SpecificationsAC standards for alternating current and DC standards for direct current.
Mains voltage is 230V AC and has a tolerance of 10%, some products are 220V or 240V AC which means they can be classed as mains voltage.
DC voltages usually require an LED driver to convert the mains voltage AC into low voltage DC. Popular DC voltages are 12V or 24V DC.
24V DC Warranty SpecificationsThe minimum guarantee period of this product.

Question by: Gigi on 29 Jan 2024, 18:53We can get this cut and soldered and it can run off one driver. Please email the enquiry to [email protected] including the colour temperature and the length of cable required on each tape, and we can email a quote.Answer by: Mathew Smith (Admin) on 30 Jan 2024, 08:02Can water proof strip to wire connectors not be used instead of solder ?
If not how do you seal soldered sections against waterQuestion by: Barry Thompson on 9 Jan 2023, 11:01The only way of connecting these and maintaining the IP rating is to solder, silicone and heatshrink.Answer by: Mathew Smith (Admin) on 9 Jan 2023, 11:44How does one change the colour of the strips?Question by: Stuart on 17 Aug 2023, 11:35There are a number of ways you can do this using either a remote, wall controller or your phone.
If you email the enquiry to [email protected] we can quote all the components you will need.Answer by: Mathew Smith (Admin) on 17 Aug 2023, 11:48I've got two suspended ceiling tracks of 6m each, that are joined to form a rectangle with 1.5mm T&E supply to two opposing corners. I plan to run two RGB+WW strips of 6m each from a single wall mounted, dimmable switch, running off a 6A supply.
What LED strips, driver/controller and dimmable switch do I need? Thanks.Question by: Peter on 18 Dec 2023, 19:44All you would need is 12m of LEDST96RGBWW/24VN, 2x HLG-150-24, 2x SR-1009FA and 1x SR-2858Z4
