LED Strips, Power Supplies and Portable Lighting
Modern interior design is unimaginable without quality hidden lighting. The market is flooded with cheap LED strips whose diodes burn out after a few months, and dotted light ruins the aesthetics. VIDEX LED strips and innovative connectors guarantee a flawless result and long-term savings.
Why choose VIDEX?:
- COB Technology: Say goodbye to the dot effect of cheap SMD strips! VIDEX COB (Chip-on-Board) strips provide a completely uniform line of light. Ideal for kitchen countertops and profile lighting.
- High Color Rendering Index (CRI >90): Cheap strips make the room look gray. VIDEX guarantees that colors in your home will look exactly like in sunlight.
- Revolution in installation: Forget about complex soldering! The new VIDEX LED strip connectors allow you to safely extend the strip and create corners without a soldering iron. Simply insert the strip into the connector and snap it shut.

Q: What is the physical resistance difference between soldering and fast "Click" (PIN) connectors?
Q: What is the LED strip cutting step, and what is its electrical significance?
Q: How to engineeringly and safely create a 90-degree corner transition without damaging the diode board?
Q: How do VIDEX connectors maintain contact under high current (A) load conditions?
Q: How to calculate the correct wire cross-section (AWG) when connecting an LED strip to a power supply?
A: Soldering with tin creates an atomic bond, providing a stable, low-resistance contact that withstands mechanical vibrations. Fast connectors use pressure contacts, whose transition resistance in humid air can increase over time due to micro-oxides.
Q: What is the LED strip cutting step, and what is its electrical significance?
A: During production, parallel circuit blocks with copper marks are embedded in the strip base, which are allowed to be separated (usually every 3, 5, or 10 cm). Cutting outside these marks breaks the series circuit of that specific block, excluding the entire affected segment from the current flow.
Q: How to engineeringly and safely create a 90-degree corner transition without damaging the diode board?
A: It is strictly forbidden to bend the strip at a sharp angle in the horizontal plane, as this tears the copper current traces in the PCB structure. Special L-shaped connectors must strictly be used, or flexible AWG wires must be soldered, ensuring current flow without tension.
Q: How do VIDEX connectors maintain contact under high current (A) load conditions?
A: "piercing" type connectors use nickel-plated blades that physically bite into the strip's copper base. This creates a mechanically stable connection that prevents arcing sparks and contact overheating even during prolonged operation.
Q: How to calculate the correct wire cross-section (AWG) when connecting an LED strip to a power supply?
A: The cable's copper cross-section (mm²) is proportional to the current strength (A) and the line length. For example, for a 150W (6.25A) load on a 24V system over 10 meters, at least 1.5mm² (16 AWG) wires must be used to prevent heat and voltage losses.
