LOOX 3011, 3017 flexible strip lights are sheathed in silicone, which means that no profiles are required for installation. These flexible strip lights can be directly installed in a groove or attached to a surface. LOOX 2013, 2015, 3013, 3015 flexible strip lights do not have silicone and it is advisable to use aluminium profiles for installation and heat management. Can be shortened Installation: Self-adhesive Lead with clip connector Can I simply cut LED flexible strip lights to length? Yes, LED flexible strip lights can be shortened at the mark with the scissor symbol. Please note the following differences when doing this: > LOOX 3011, 3017 flexible strip lights can be shortened but not re-attached. > LOOX 2013, 2015, 3013, 3015 flexible strip lights can be shortened or extended as much as required, since the connection between the strips and the connection to the driver is made using clip connectors.

Yes, please use the multi switch box to do this. Up to three switches can be connected to the multi switch box. The dimmer does not work with the multi switch box (see page 86). For how many Amperes are the normal commercial LED plug systems and AWG-22 leads suitable? 2.5 Amperes What is AWG 22? AWG stands for American Wire Gauge. It is the coding for wire diameters in electrical leads that are mainly used in North America. This identifies the cross-section of wires in electrical leads that consist of strands and wire. What is the maximum Wattage that I can connect to an AWG-22 lead and plug? With 12V systems this is 12V x 2.5A = 30W. With 24V systems this is 24V x 2.5A = 60W. What influence does the type of glass edge have on the lighting effect that is generated? The lighting effect varies depending on the type of glass shelf. > Glass edge with satin finish = even light line > Clear glass edge = point / dot light Technical questions about LOOX
