LED strip Rebel Light Rebel 5 m, cold white waterproof (300 × 5050 SMD) 12V

Rebel Light Rebel 5 m cold white waterproof LED strip is a 12V linear light source fitted with 300 high-output 5050 SMD LEDs along a five-metre reel. It delivers a consistent cold white illumination suitable for accent, task and decorative lighting in damp or exposed locations. The tape is designed with a water-resistant coating that protects the LED elements and solder joints, enabling use on façades, under cabinets, stair treads and signage where a durable, narrow-profile light strip is required.

Advantages

The LED strip provides uniform cold white light with high lumen output per LED type while operating at a standard 12V DC voltage. Its waterproof construction increases reliability in moist environments and reduces the need for additional protective housing. The flexible tape format allows straightforward installation on curved or flat surfaces and can be cut to length at marked intervals to fit specific runs. Low heat generation and efficient power use make it suitable for continuous or long-duration illumination.

Suitable for

• Outdoor façade accent lighting and architectural outlines
• Under-cabinet and worktop lighting in kitchens and workshops
• Staircase, handrail and step-edge illumination
• Backlighting for signs, displays and advertising panels
• Decorative runs in wet or semi-exposed areas such as verandas and bathrooms (with appropriate protection for connections)

Key specifications

• Length: 5 metres
• LED type: 5050 SMD
• LED count: 300 LEDs
• Color temperature: cold white
• Operating voltage: 12 V DC
• Ingress protection: waterproof-coated tape for moisture resistance
• Form factor: flexible adhesive-backed strip, cuttable at designated points

How to use

Before installation, measure the run and plan the power feed location to ensure voltage drop is acceptable for the 5 m length. Cut the strip only at the marked cut lines; expose the connection pads and use suitable waterproof connectors or soldering with proper sealing for outdoor or wet-area installations. Mount the strip onto a clean, dry surface using the adhesive backing or mechanical clips where adhesion may be insufficient. Connect to a compatible 12V DC power supply with adequate wattage rating for the full length of the reel and observe correct polarity. If multiple reels are used, feed power in parallel to maintain uniform brightness.

Usage recommendations

For long-term outdoor or damp installations, use IP-rated end caps and silicone-sealed connections and select a 12V power supply with at least 20% headroom above the strip's nominal consumption to reduce voltage drop and extend LED life.
