HOW TO SOLDER WIRES TO LED STRIP LIGHTING
Soldering connections can look like a daunting task. You might be anxious about burning the tape,
or wiring it incorrectly. But don’t worry, it’s easier than it looks to cut, extend and test your LED
lights. With this step-by-step guide for our 12V LED neon light, you will be able to do a great job
without any problems. Plus, traditional Soldering is more reliable than solderless connectors.
TOOLS AND PARTS
2
1. CUTTING
First, locate the the dark points on the side of the light at every 1’’, aka the cutting marks. Then
take either heavy duty scissors or shears and line it up perpendicularly and cut exactly at the
cutting mark to your desired length. In order to solder wire to your Waterproof LED Strip Light
you must first cut back about 1/8’’ of the silicone coating to expose the copper connection pads
on your LED light. Use a sharp blade to cut back the coating, be very careful not to cut through
the PC Board on the LED Strip light.
2. SOLDERING
3
Clean the tip of your soldering iron in order to keep your soldering joints from overlapping. Tin
the solder pads on led strip light by melting a small amount of solder directly to the copper dots.
Be sure that you put enough solder to cover the dots but not so much that the solder is
overlapping. Then use wire stripper to strip off about 1/8’’ of the insulation on the wire and tin
your 18-22AWG stranded wire 0.5 by applying a small amount of solder directly to the stranded
wire. Your wire should be silver in color and no longer appear to be stranded. Once you’ve tinned
both the wire and the copper dots, next step is to mate the wire to the led light. Individually
place the wire to the copper dots, connect the red wire to Anode(+) and black wire to Cathode(-)
on the copper dots, and then place the soldering iron over both in order to heat up each solder
enough to melt and become one. Be sure to hold long enough to not create a "cold solder."
3. TESTING
Once you have properly mated your wire to your LED light, connect the red wire to Anode(+) and
black wire to Cathode(-) of the power supply. The light should now come on.

4. WATERPROOFING
If you want to use your strip outdoors, you should waterproofing it by applying silicone adhesive
liberally into the inside and outside of the connected area. Gently press out any bubbles, make
sure to wipe out excess adhesive, let it dry for 24 hours. In addition, you can cut off about an inch
of the heat shrink tubing, and then slide it over the connected area. Then use the heat gun/ heat
pencil/ lighter to heat up the tubing to create the seal.
