Key Features
- 【Ultra-Slim 5mm–Designed for Tight Spaces】At just 5mm wide, this ultra-narrow LED strip is engineered for tight spaces—inside cabinets, along shelves, or hidden in narrow gaps. It bends and cuts with ease for seamless, custom-fit installation. Enjoy uniform, flicker-free brightness in a minimalist profile that disappears into any design.
- 【Individually Addressable RGB – Full Control, LED by LED】 Each WS2812B LED features a built-in IC for independent programming, offering 256 brightness levels and 24-bit color depth. Create dynamic effects like rainbow fades, meteor streaks, and music-reactive patterns. Cuttable at every LED – freely customize the length to fit your project.Note: Cannot be connected in series.
- 【UL Listed】UL Recognized LED strip for guaranteed safety, featuring 3M double-sided adhesive, UL Recognized wires and PCB
- 【Wide Compatibility】The addressable RGB IC Chip is built-in the 2020SMD. Each pixel can have its own color and brightness as your wish. Compatible with multiple controllers: DIY Projects (SP803E,SP805E,ESP32, ESP8266,WLED, Rasp Pi, UNO R3 etc.), Tuya APP (DR03W), BanlanX APP (SP630E/SP530E/SP611E/SP602E/SP608E/SP107E/SP105E etc.),industrial-grade (K1000C, K8000C, etc.). Choose the right controller per your project.
- 【Wide Application】At just 5mm wide, this ultra-slim LED strip is made for gaps. From under-cabinet lighting, bookshelf accents, TV backlighting, display cases, closets, vanity mirrors, staircases, to the bottom of TV stands — 8 tight spaces where ordinary strips can't fit. Cuttable, bendable, and paper-thin, it delivers uniform brightness without being seen. No light visible by day, only clean illumination at night. Bring professional-grade lighting into every narrow corner of your home.
- 【Power & Safety】Strict 5V DC input only (12V/24V will cause damage). Use one 5V/3A adapter per 3.2FT (160 LEDs). Power draw varies by color mode and PSU efficiency. Avoid extended max brightness – ensure good ventilation and don't run full load in enclosed/hot spaces to prevent overheating and extend lifespan.
