I got the minger rgb led light strips and they didn t c.
Connect multiple led strips together.
You want that power source to be able to handle all of the lumens requirements.
In this video you will see how to hook up multiple leds to a single powe.
Luckily a 12vdc input is a very low voltage.
Lets take a look at this in the image to the right.
In a parallel circuit all the positive connections are tied together and back to the positive output of the led driver and all the negative connections are tied together and back to the negative output of the driver.
This is important when you re connecting multiple led strips to a single power source.
This is no different with led strips.
To connect your led strip lights you can either use a connector for easy attachment or you can solder the wires to the strip which carries more current and creates a more stable connection.
Ok i made this video for anyone who has led light strips that didn t come with any connector cables.
When determining how many strips you want to connect together remember that with wire resistance increases with distance.
To connect the multiple strips a connector block is used which is known to split the power supply into many outputs.
The main challenge is that most power supply units will only have one of each positive and negative output wires so to connect that to more than one led strip section will require you to split that output into multiple wires.
The main disadvantage of this approach is that it will require a bit more wiring work.
Whichever method you choose make sure you cut your light strip along the designated cut points to ensure your lights will work if necessary.
Fun and creative projects with leds can be made with just a little bit of knowledge.
Two or more one color led strips to the power supply more led strips can be attached if the power supply and the transformer is powerful enough to support it depending on output wattage.
