Light strip installation is usually divided into two types: concealed embedded and exposed. For embedded installation, it is necessary to make grooves in a predetermined position. For example, when designing a cabinet, you should communicate with the designer to reserve the position for the light strip installation. This installation method allows the light strip to better integrate into the environment, presenting a beautiful and unobtrusive effect.
The exposed installation method is more flexible, does not require pre-grooving, and is suitable for later additions. It is easy to install and affordable, making it a very cost-effective choice.
When installing the light strip, be sure to reserve the potential in advance to ensure that it can be powered normally in the future, so as to avoid having to choose to install a battery model. Although the battery model can be used in an emergency, it needs to be replaced frequently, which is quite cumbersome. In addition, it is also necessary to pay attention to the installation of the light strip with a transformer. Usually, the light strip is powered by 12V or 24V DC. If you need to connect to 220V AC mains, you must use a transformer for conversion. However, there are also some light strips on the market that can be used directly without a transformer. Please be sure to confirm with the store when purchasing.
