The
Tape is supplied in a silicone sleave housing (waterproof IP67) with a
self-adhesive backing. It can be used within the housing for applications
where it will come into contact with water or moisture such as a bathroom
or garden.
For
use in tight spaces where water resistance is not required the tape can
easily be removed from its silicone housing by sliding a sharp pair of
scissors along the housing. The tape itself is extremely thin with a depth
of just 2.2mm. It has a 3M self-adhesive backing so is easily applied to
most smooth surfaces by simply removing the backing paper.
These
pictures show how thin the LED Tape actually is.
The
LEDs used in the tape are RGB SMD LEDs, which have LED Emitters in the 3
primary colours Red, Green, and Blue. By mixing various levels of each
colour upto 2.1 million colours and shades are possible!
The
LEDs produce a wide light dispersion (120 degrees) which gives a reflected
glow similar to that of neon from nearby surfaces and objects. There are
not dots or hotspots.
The
tape can be cut /
joined to make any length you need,
connections and cutting points are at 3 LED (100mm / 4inch) intervals. Full
instructions are included.
