No soldering required. Parameter Table Customise Your Lighting with Solderless Precision Forget soldering irons. These connectors utilise internal copper teeth to bite through insulation and PCB protective layers. Creates a secure Strip-to-Wire connection for standard IP20 strips and IP65 silicone-coated strips (for thick coatings, minor peeling is suggested) How to Connect Wires to Your LED Strips Wire End Strip End Insert wires into the guide slot and then press cap down. Align the Soldering Pads of the light strip surface with the pins on the connector. just please align the positive and negative poles of the light strip Professional LED Connections, Customized by You One connector handles multiple strip types L Shaped Connection Cut-to-Size Compatible with standard IP20 indoor COB SMD3528 tapes and silicone-coated IP65 waterproof models (Single Color) Take full control of your layout for bridging gaps over stove hoods, navigating tight corners, or linking shelves without excess cabling cluttering your view. Whether you need to jump 3 inches across a shelf bracket or 10 feet across a room, simply cut 20 AWG wire to size. Attach a connector to each end, and you have a custom jumper that fits your space Do I need to strip the wire insulation before inserting it? No, please do not strip the wire. Simply insert your 20 AWG wire with the plastic coating intact. When you clamp the cap down with pliers, the internal blades cut through the insulation to contact the copper core automatically. Do I need to strip the wire insulation before inserting it? No, please do not strip the wire. Simply insert your 20 AWG wire with the plastic coating intact. When you clamp the cap down with pliers, the internal blades cut through the insulation to contact the copper core automatically. Do these come with wires attached? No, these are terminals only. You use your own 22-20 AWG wire to create custom length extensions, eliminating the mess of pre-made fixed cables. Do these come with wires attached? No, these are terminals only. You use your own 22-20 AWG wire to create custom length extensions, eliminating the mess of pre-made fixed cables. Why do I need pliers? Can't I just snap it shut with my fingers? Pliers are required. The connector is designed to bite firmly into both the wire and the LED strip to ensure a stable 5A connection. Finger pressure is typically not enough to force the piercing blades through the insulation completely. Why do I need pliers? Can't I just snap it shut with my fingers? Pliers are required.

Finger pressure is typically not enough to force the piercing blades through the insulation completely. Will this work with thin 22 AWG wire? We recommend 20 AWG wire for the most reliable performance. While 22 AWG is close, it is thinner and might not make as solid contact with the piercing blades, potentially leading to loose connections. For a safe 5A load, 20 AWG is the optimal choice.

Can I use these for waterproof strips? Yes, they fit IP65 silicone-coated strips. However, you must peel off the silicone coating from the copper contact pad area of the strip before inserting it. The connector needs direct access to the copper pads on the PCB. Can I use these for waterproof strips? Yes, they fit IP65 silicone-coated strips.

A bit fiddly to fit but generally good ## Features - See Alignment Before You Close - Reduce Miswiring on First Fit: The clear polycarbonate housing lets you check copper pad position and polarity alignment before locking. Especially useful for COB strips where pads are smaller, helping avoid no-light issues caused by poor contact. - 5A Rated for Common 8mm Single Colour Strips: Designed for 8mm 2 pin COB and SMD 2835 tape lights, compatible with 5V–24V DC systems and 20–22 AWG two-core wire. IDC contact design connects without stripping insulation. - For Tight Spaces Where Soldering Is Not Practical: Suitable for under cabinet lighting, wardrobes, shelving, TV backlighting and display units. Use where tools are limited and quick installation is needed without a soldering setup. - Works with IP65 Strips - Simple Prep Required: For silicone-coated strips, peel back 6–8mm of silicone at the cut point to expose copper pads before inserting. Not suitable for wider than 8mm strips or multi-colour LED strips. - Reusable for Adjustments During Installation: Can be reopened using a small flat tool for polarity correction or repositioning. Designed for a few adjustments rather than repeated daily use. Supplied without pre-attached wire for flexible layout. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09KBPFLZN | | Best Sellers Rank | 26,363 in Lighting ( See Top 100 in Lighting ) 455 in Under-Cabinet Lights | | Brand | Masterwon | | Brand Name | Masterwon | | Colour | Warm White | | Country Of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 72 Reviews | | Fixture Features | Reusable, Solderless | | Included Components | 10 x connectors and wires | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Indoor | | Indoor/Outdoor usage | Indoor | | Item Weight | 0.01 Kilograms | | Light Color | Warm White | | Light source type | LED | | Manufacturer | Alightings | | Material | Metal | | Number of Items | 10 | | Number of Lights | 10 | | Occasion | New Year | | Power and Plug Description | Corded Electric | | Power source | Corded Electric | | Product Style | Modern | | Special feature | Reusable, Solderless | | Theme | Christmas | | Type of Bulb | LED | | Unit Count | 10 count | | Voltage | 12 Volts | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Masterwon - **Colour:** Warm White - **Indoor/Outdoor usage:** Indoor - **Light colour:** Warm White - **Light source type:** LED - **Occasion:** New Year - **Power source:** Corded Electric - **Special feature:** Reusable, Solderless - **Style:** Modern - **Theme:** Christmas ## Images ![COB Strip to Wire Connector - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41GfhB0DnML.jpg) ![COB Strip to Wire Connector - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51ajG-7nNoL.jpg) ![COB Strip to Wire Connector - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51cQrpEo0NL.jpg) ![COB Strip to Wire Connector - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61PvxaSBt8S.jpg) ![COB Strip to Wire Connector - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41IEdbQkpZL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Do I need to strip the wire insulation before inserting it?** A: No, please do not strip the wire.
