LED strip lights are brilliant bits of kit. We love them here at Wholesale LED Lights, and anything that makes them better is a good thing in our eyes.

Although we offer a free cutting and soldering service up to 5 cuts, you might decide after you buy your tape that you want to use shorter lengths, or want to use them round corners.

This would have been an arduous task before, but not anymore thanks to our new Strip Light Connectors.

They can be used to create quick and secure connections between 2 separate pieces of strip light without the need for any soldering. Simply insert one end of the strip light into the connector and click the cover closed – and that’s it!

There are 3 types of connector depending on whether you have 3528 or 5050 LED tape, plus another option for RGB strips too, and they’ll all fit to IP20 rated strips:

• 3528 connectors fit single colour 3528 LED strip lights,
• 5050 connectors fit single colour 5050 LED strips, and
• RGB connectors fit colour changing LED tapes.

Corner Extensions For Greater Flexibility

For slightly trickier setups, our corner connectors allow you to connect 2 separate lengths of LED tape so that they can bend round corners – up to 180^o – for a neat, continuous installation.

This is really good for display cases, picture frames, shelving or other situations where greater flexibility is required.

As with the standard versions, these are available in 3528 corner connectors, 5050 corner connectors and RGB corner connectors.
