How flexible are these LED strips? Can the lighting strip be turned/bent at a 90 degree angle?

Our LED strips are very flexible. They can make a 90 degree turn going up or down, however the strips can not make a 90 degree turn left or right. For that we recommend cutting your strips and using our Any Angle Connectors to make your turn.

Simple answer: yesAny bend or fold will work - provided that one takes care to avoid making a fold that would cause an LED to detach from the strip.A "test fit" of the strip, before actually installing it, should make it easy enough to decide where folds will be.The strip could be marked with a Magic Marker™.The adhesive strip might not stick well to some surfaces.Make sure the surface is clean and dry.If the strip does not adhere adequately ... tape, glue, stapes, tacks or clips may be used - so long as care is taken to avoid damaging the strip.

About a 6 inch clearance, fans out slightly ,not very flexible rods to bend lights lower, bulbs that came with light do heat up fixtures i would go with cfl buls or led. Base is bulky and heavy for support so not to lean over or fall over it, is in a corner because of the reason, Sorry for the delay I was on vacation . Hope this helps Thank U

While you might be able to MacGuyver a solution that could work, I don't believe these covers were intended for that style of light. They're more for the Par-36 pin spot style DJ/theater light.

Each of the 3 lights can be swiveled up and down and Left Right in about a 180 degree angle. I've had mine for sev months and works gr8.The lights go in whatever space you need them. Would not suggest man-handling the moves if you know what I mean..it is sturdy tho.

I think you could bend it to fit but I'm not sure! I am using it on a smaller bulb.

Same diameter as standard HDMI cables - a gradual 90-degree bend is okay, but if you are asking if you can "kink" it, I would say no.

You can rather easily solder these together. There are defined split points along the length of the LED strip as well as at the end.

Yes. The lights should bend enough to fit comfortably. I was able to carefully bend the lights at least 12"-14".

Peter, I've used these bulbs with threads up, down and sideways and have noticed no difference in performance. I have never encountered an LED with orientation sensitivity.

Very flexible. You can bent this without problem. You can do this practically 180 degree

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.

Most led fixtures are directional but these have at least a 35 degree angle.

I forgot to mention that my bases are each different regarding the angle of the holes to put the LED wires into. I had to bend the wires nearly 90 degrees on one and slightly modify it so the light shines as normal. One cover does not fit, but it does not get as hot as the halogen.

I believe so. The strips are not heavy...although this comes with hardware to install.....i didn't want to use as i am not sure i want to leave them where they are now.......so i used clear packing tape. perfect. i did not tape over the little led lights....just along side. The on/off switch, however, i did not tape. It is setting on the counter. Very bright warm light! Love it!

They are flexible. You shouldn't have any problems.. I was very happy with this purchase

The 4' sections are fairly flexible to enable bending. However, you could mount them in a straight line if you so desire.
