• Cutting interval: Every 100 cm (220V version) / 50 cm (110V version available on request)

Detailed Feature Breakdown

1. Double‑Sided + Hollow‑Out Lighting Effect — Brighter & More Dimensional

• Dual‑face emission: The LED array is positioned to emit light from both lateral faces of the strip simultaneously. When suspended or tied to a frame, the strip appears illuminated from every viewing angle — no “dark side” that cheapens single‑side flex installations.
• Hollow‑center design: Unlike solid‑core neon flex, the center channel remains open, allowing light to pass through and create a distinctive “floating glow” effect. This is particularly striking when the strip is wrapped around cylindrical objects, hung in free space, or used as a border where light should bleed through from behind.
• Brighter output: Because light escapes from two faces and the center, the perceived brightness is significantly higher than standard single‑side flex of the same LED density — ideal for large‑area architectural outlines and high‑visibility signage.
• White light variant: Delivers a clean, neutral white glow (6000–6500K cool white or 2700–3000K warm white, depending on variant) — popular for modern minimalist interiors, retail displays, and architectural accent lighting.

2. Tool‑Free Installation — Tie It On, No Accessories Needed

• No mounting channels required: Unlike standard neon flex that needs aluminum extrusions or adhesive backing, this strip can be tied directly to any existing frame, railing, pergola, or structure using common ribbons, zip ties, or string. The hollow‑center design accommodates ties without compressing the light‑emitting surfaces.
• Instant setup: Uncoil, position, tie in place, connect to 220V mains — done. Ideal for temporary installations (events, holiday decor, pop‑up activations) where speed and reversibility matter.
• Minimal hardware: No screws, brackets, or specialized tools needed. A handful of ribbons is all it takes to transform a bare frame into a glowing structure.
• Lightweight: ~0.2 kg/m — easy to suspend from lightweight frames, tent poles, or tree branches without additional support.

3. 220V AC Direct Input — Long Runs Without Voltage Drop

• Direct mains connection: 220V AC input allows the strip to be connected directly to standard household/commercial power without an external low‑voltage driver. This simplifies wiring and reduces component cost for large‑scale installations.
• Extra‑long single‑feed runs: Up to 150 meters​ per single power feed — no “bright head / dim tail” effect, thanks to the high‑voltage constant‑current design. Perfect for building perimeters, bridge outlines, and long walkway guides.
• Safe for permanent installation: Fully enclosed PVC jacket with reinforced insulation meets CE/RoHS safety standards. Surface temperature <30°C even after 24 hours continuous operation.
• Dimming compatible: Can be paired with leading‑edge or trailing‑edge AC dimmers (phase‑cut) for adjustable brightness — consult your electrician for compatibility.

4. IP65 Waterproof — Indoor & Outdoor Versatility

• IP65 rating: Dust‑tight and resistant to low‑pressure water jets — suitable for covered outdoor installations, patios, gazebos, boat cabins, and waterfront decks.
• UV‑resistant PVC jacket: Formulated to resist yellowing and brittleness from sun exposure — maintains optical clarity for consistent white glow over the product’s lifespan.
• Temperature range: -20°C to +45°C operating ambient — performs reliably in most temperate climates.
• Important note: All cut ends and connector joints MUST be sealed with silicone sealant​ (provided with accessory kits) to maintain IP65 rating in outdoor use.
• 

5. Flexible & Field‑Cuttable

• Horizontal bending: 4 cm minimum bend diameter — wraps around columns, arches, and irregular shapes without kinking.
• Cuttable at marked intervals: 100 cm cut length for 220V version (60 LEDs per cut unit). Trim to exact length without damaging the rest of the strip.
• Reconnectable: Matching 220V AC connectors and end caps available for cut/reseal operations. Each cut section retains full IP65 rating when properly sealed.

6. Energy‑Efficient & Long‑Lasting

• Low power consumption: ~10 W/m — 90% energy savings vs. traditional glass neon (25–30 W/m).
• 50,000‑hour rated lifespan: ~5.7 years of continuous operation, or ~11.4 years at 12 hours/day — zero maintenance over its service life.
• No hazardous gases: Mercury‑free, unlike traditional glass neon which contains trace mercury vapor.
