V-Sport Tape Strips for Accent Lighting
These flexible LED strips provide a smooth and steady flow of accent lighting for automotive or RV projects. The solid custom design eliminates visible separation between LEDs without needing clouded acrylic covers. They are built for durability while remaining flexible enough for custom installations. Buyers who need rigid linear fixtures or high-output flood lighting will not be served by this tape format.
IP65 Rating with 12V DC Operation
The strips carry an IP65 rating for protection against dust and water jets in exterior or damp locations. Operating at 12V DC, they draw approximately 14W per metre with a tolerance of plus or minus one watt. Luminous efficacy reaches 90 lumens per watt with a tolerance of ten lumens. Installations requiring IP67 submersion protection or mains-voltage supply cannot use this product.
3M Adhesive Backing and High LED Density
Each metre contains 336 LEDs for dense, uniform illumination across the 16.4ft length. The included HD 3M adhesive backing allows direct mounting to clean surfaces without separate clips or channels. No controller, power supply or wiring harness is bundled in the package. Users needing wireless control, colour-changing protocols or plug-and-play kits must source those components separately.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 16.4ft V-Sport tape strip and what step is often missed?
Clean the mounting surface thoroughly, then press the pre-applied 3M adhesive firmly along the full 16.4ft length; the step most people skip is allowing the adhesive to cure for several hours before powering the 12V DC supply.
What maintenance or replacement will the 336 LEDs per metre strip need over time?
The solid silicone encapsulation is maintenance-free; if a section dims after extended use, only that segment needs replacement rather than the entire 16.4ft roll.
At what point does the 14W per metre power draw become the limiting factor during sustained use?
The 12V DC supply and wiring gauge set the practical limit; voltage drop along the 16.4ft run will reduce brightness before the LEDs themselves reach thermal limits.
