❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Can I cut the LED strips to length?
A: No—you must select the correct pre-cut bar length. Custom-cutting voids the warranty and may damage the circuit.
Q2: Do I need a separate driver for each light bar?
A: A single appropriately rated driver can power multiple bars up to its maximum wattage.
Q3: What tools are required?
A: A Phillips screwdriver and a wire cutter/stripper (for hard-wired installs) are usually sufficient.
Q4: Can I retrofit these lights into existing cabinetry?
A: Yes—Yuncheng’s slim profiles and snap-in clips make retrofitting both simple and secure.
Q5: Are wet-location kits available for kitchens and baths?
A: Absolutely—look for our IP44-rated models with sealed clips and silicone-sealed cable entries.
