Can you connect two strips end to end? I have about 30 continuous feet I need to light

I believe you can connect two end to end, but you cannot connect 3 or more end to end. I explored this question myself, though I did not do this, and it seems like once you use more than 2 strips (of 5 meters each) it would drawn too much power for the thin wires and things would melt. If I did this myself, I would first test it and see how hot the strips seemed to be getting before I would trust installing it. I would also not recommend doing this without some validation, since I am by no means an expert and would not want to be responsible for any mishaps.

I believe you can if you solder to the wires on the opposite end of the power plug. The problem I had was hanging them. Mine were inside of some sort of silicone sleeve. Nothing would stick to them including the 3m tape that was supposed to be used for mounting. I also tried 20lb heavy duty 3m outdoor tape and no luck. If I had realized this I would not have ordered them in the first place! They were not like strip in the picture on Amazon!

With a higher wattage power supply you could connect all 5 strips to one power supply but you would still overload the control driver that changes the colors.. I have used these in many kitchens that I have wired.. One strip over the cabinets, one under the toe kick, and another for under the upper cabinets (for task lighting) I think I have went up to 32 feet on a transformer and they are still working correctly after 1 1/2 years.

You can connect the output end of one string to the input end of another string. You will have to disconnect the 12V supply from input end of the string to do this. You can likely run 10 or 15 strings of lights from one of the 12v supplies.

There is no plug for daisy chaining these lights together. I would think you would be able to tie them all to a power strip just as easily. They have very long cords.

You can simply enough solder the connection together if you're confident with soldering. Else buy the LED strips with the four pin connectors on each end and connect the two strips together.

Yes because the two ends can connect together; so you can connect to the light from the panel or to any number of other like extension cords and then to the light. You can string them together, yes.

This strip is powered by a 12 volts DC converter, so as long as your power supply has an output of 12vdc then I would not hesitate hooking them up. This is a very versatile set of lights. Have fun with them.

Yes and no. The light strips when cut in its proper segments have a small smooth section where a connector could slide over. The other option is to take a small pin where the smooth connection and push out the small indented hole and use a soldering iron and your own wire and connect them that way.

so far, I have linked 2 light strips together with no problem. just make sure that your power adaptor uses the most amps possible without damaging your strips. I believe the most you can use is a 12V 5amp adaptor.

make sure you put in square because one side it hot and the other would be dead without connection. you could but a 12v light on each side to test for a 12v touble shooting light is cheap.

Not sure. I only used them in the 16.4 ft they gave. It only had black and red wires for hookup to battery. I didn't see any way to connect another strip.

You can use these: http://www.amazon.com/20pcs-Connectors-Strip-Lights-Insert/dp/B008LR35VK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid;=1388815501&sr;=8-1&keywords;=led+pins+connectors but there may be a limit as to how many feet you can connect. From what I have researched it should work. I thought I read somewhere there was some limit as to the length. Only $1.99 for 10 of them.

You can cut the strips at certain contact points( I think it was every 3 LEDs). From there you can either solder on fresh wires or use premade connectors to the contact points,(+) and (-). It's not complicated at all and easily done.

You probably can but I would not recommend these lights, they are horribly unreliable and customer service is less than ideal. I went through three strips and only one worked more than a week and it lasted less than three months
