Integral 5M Flexible 3000k CRI90 12v LED Strip ILSTWHIA003E

5 Metre CRI90 LED flexible strip with 3 year warranty.

This quality product will show consistency in colour across the strip with no faded or different LEDs, it comes in a 5 meter length which can be cut down to size.

It is supplied with an extra connector to power the strip if it is cut into two lengths.

The colour temperature is 3000k warm white with a energy consumption of only 6 watts per metre.

The output is around 425 lumens per metre.

Comes complete with an installation guide and fitting accessories.

This product does not come with a driver and it must be purchased separately, a suitable constant voltage driver is required, depending on the total power requirement of the connected strip(s) it will require a 12V DC constant voltage.

If all the 5 metres of strip is used then a 50watt minimum constant driver would be required.

This is part of the Integral 12V LED Strip Range.

Q1: Question regarding the wattage for the strip.

it states that energy consumption is 6 watts per metre, But if all 5 metres are used then it is 50 watts?
we are after a 36 watt led strip light, Would this be good for that?

A1: I have spoken to the supplier, and they have said that if you are running the entire 5 meters as one long run, anything less than a 50w driver can sometimes cause the other end of the strip (the opposite end to the driver) to fade, presumably because of the distance the power has to travel. In shorter length this proble is not so apparent
