Cutting LED Strips

[@azreiroblox234]

When your cutting them, **DO NOT HAVE THEM PLUGGED IN**, it can cause flames, or sparks. My friend tested cutting it with them on and her LEDs caught a spark.

You gotta buy that connector lol

I cut mine and the first strip worked but then the rest did not

Baylee Daye my situation rn 😅 idk what to do did u end up fixing it??

[@bayleefairy8461]

bruh lyn nope. I had to order another box of led lights. LOL

[@theanglinartisan]

That means your connections are bad. Look to make sure all of the leads are touching the appropriate wires. The connections will not work if they are installed backwards, so make sure those are facing the correct way.

[@sitihaajar9623]

Kau ni bodoh ke ape ? 😹

[@bryannathelittleshit4523]

Ollies Life yea how do you fix that

[@dollkayla]

Where’s everyone getting all these connectors? My led lights didn’t even come with a remote

[@melanateddistortion]

Kayla Hawes all of them come with a remote, u probably got ripped off unless u have the smart ones where u control the colors with your phone

[@dollkayla]

Issa Tomboy yeah I have the smart ones, and yeah I use my phone it was just a reference

I was reading to the comments for answer and I guess everybody else is more confused than I am lol

[@ashleyclark2610]

When you cut them do they still work or does it need to be all connected?

[@TheEastside661]

Does it make a difference whether or not you use unwired 4-Pin RGB strip connectors versus wired 4-Pin RGB connectors?

[@rishamccauley]

Ok so if i cut my led strips will they still the lights still work?

[@2kevy]

So I installed my strip lights on the wall and we cut where the thing said to cut but now we can’t join the two together

[@amelietimon7664]

Same

[@chocolate9726]

U have to buy the white connecter

[@cadyjud8591]

same and it’s so aggravating. i cant figure out how to fix it

[@ethanfrankel8148]

once you cut it does it still work without plugging in?

[@graceawina]

No you have to cut it after the plug in

[@ItsNatesArt]

Yes, LED strips will still work after you've cut them long as you cut along the designated lines. LED strips are made up of several individual circuits, so each cut line demarcates the end of one circuit and the start of a new one

[@raehaileeburns363]

@@ItsNatesArt right but don’t you need connectors?

[@ItsNatesArt]

@@raehaileeburns363 nope. I cut mine on the line and they still work

[@darkchemistry]

Yes I tried it!!!! Just make sure it looks good on both sides

[@jihoceskemaslo3023]

Can I just cut them and thats it? I have 5m and 10 m and the 10m is so long so I need to cut it like 2m. But I just wanna cut it. Not add any other led or something. So will it be work?

[@lilynoonan]

Same. Did it work to just cut anywhere for you?

[@husseinmuchene1146]

What's the name of that thing that connects the two led lights

[@soobinyz0]

can you still control it with the same remote?

I cut mine and now i wanna reconnect them lol idk what im doing with my life.

If I cut mine will the bigger half still work? Thanks in advance

Hahahahhahaha

[@kierseygrubbs8281]

Would I need to connect them if I was cutting to size it down and it’s the end of the lights

[@yourlocalfriendnat3249]

i have a question so if i order led lights and the led lights are way longer than my room if i cut them to make them shorter so they fit in my room and to end them do i have to connect them to some sort of thing?

[@tristangagnon6526]

Wondering the same thing did you get a answer

[@sakuraa__]

after you cut them to the desired length they should still work even without connecting the end that you cut from

[@alexisgonzales4977]

I don’t get it .... I can cut the cord but still have to connect it back together for it to work? What’s the point of cutting the lights than ?

[@dyessasesisosu9191]

exactly

[@awaspancung623]

Its hard to shape if u not cutting it

[@markstevensantos1978]

If i cut the excess wires in the copper cut line did it still work? Thanks

[@andrewanglin]

Yes.

[@nix2816]

No

[@weedoms9766]

No when i cut mine it broke.

[@TakeCareDeluxe]

U have to buy connectors

[@DoppSkates]

I have too much excess lights, can I just cut it at the copper and it'll be fine? I have to much excess I'm afraid if I cut it the lights might not work

[@preshm189]

Did you ever find out?

[@jordanhaynes8565]

This comment section is scaring the f*** outta me, so I'm just not going to cut it at all.

[@twistedcake4296]

Exactly

[@srxesz5624]

too risky just going to leave mine a little bit curvy lmaooo

[@hart1ezz790]

I cut mine where it’s supposed to be cut but the other bigger half didn’t even work smh

[@roblox4life599]

Is the bigger half still connected to the power source?

[@ramataguindo4362]

do we have to remove the clear part of the strip for it to work?

[@kenneleyd1676]

Same question cuz it’s thick and it won’t close

Yea she has another video on it

[@i-nucleardragon9639]

Will it still work if it’s cut

[@ramisamanulat8531]

Bro I’m so mad rn the part connected works but the other doesn’t work anymore and I cut it straight on the line

[@moonraye4942]

Bruh that's what's gonna happen. If the lights arent connected to any sort of power they wont work.

I mustve got a bad set cuz I cut where it told me to and now only one tiny part works but the rest don't

[@krisives]

Do i have to cap my main line? Or does it work even when bare Edit: I asked my uncle who's an electrician if it would be okay and he said yes. It's been a month since I cut mine. I still have a house. Ps. This works as long as it has connection to a power source.

what if I cut my led lights wrong and only one strip works? And the rest won’t how can you fix it?

[@alexxisbaluyot275]

So if you cut it but don’t want to connect it to any other lines, can you keep it that way or do you have to put something on the end? I don’t want to cause a fire :/

[@theanglinartisan]

No need to put anything on the end. The silicone on the top and the plastic lining on the bottom are fine protection. If you are worried about it you can just add a bit on electrical tape to the end, but it's really not necessary.

[@alexxisbaluyot275]

does it work that way?
