Choosing a driver
Allow 4.8w for every metre of strip and add about 20% headroom. A full 5 metre run draws 24w, so it needs a 12v constant voltage driver of at least 29w, which in practice means a 30w driver. For longer installs, split the strip into runs of 5 metres or less and give each run its own feed. To dim the strip, use a compatible 12v LED dimming controller rated for the load.
Mounting and heat
For the warranty to apply, this strip must be installed on an aluminium heat dissipating surface and handled with anti static precautions. An aluminium profile is the easiest way to do that: it draws heat away, protects the strip and extends its life, and a diffuser softens the line. Choose a profile at least 9mm wide inside to suit the 8mm strip.
