Product Information

Full details

This product is for Philips Hue Flux and Flux ultra-bright strip light owners looking to create custom lighting layouts. The key benefit is the ability to seamlessly connect cut sections of strip lights at 90-degree angles, enabling intricate designs and corner turns without affecting light quality. A caveat is that these connectors are only compatible with Hue Flux and Flux ultra-bright strip lights and require the strip lights to be cut at specific intervals.

FAQs

Can I use these connectors with other brands of LED strip lights?

No, these connectors are specifically designed for Philips Hue Flux and Flux ultra-bright strip lights only. They will not be compatible with other brands.

How many strip lights can I connect together with these connectors?

Each connector allows you to join two pieces of strip light at a 90-degree angle. You can extend your total strip light length up to a maximum of 20 meters using multiple cut sections and connectors.

Do I need a Philips Hue Bridge to use these connectors?

The connectors themselves do not require a Hue Bridge. However, to control your Hue strip lights wirelessly, connect them to your smart home system or use the Hue app, a Hue Bridge is recommended.

What is the maximum length of Hue strip light I can connect?

You can extend your Philips Hue strip lights to a maximum total length of 20 meters. This pack includes four connectors, allowing for multiple connection points within that total length.

Can I connect pieces that were not cut from the same strip light?

Yes, as long as both pieces are from a compatible Philips Hue Flux or Flux ultra-bright strip light, they can be connected using these corner connectors.

What happens if I cut the strip light at the wrong spot?

You must cut the strip light precisely at the indicated cut marks (16.7cm intervals). Cutting elsewhere may damage the internal wiring and prevent a proper connection or function.

Troubleshooting

Strip light does not illuminate after connecting

Verify that the strip light was cut precisely at the marked interval. Ensure the electrical contacts on both the strip light and the connector are clean and properly aligned. Check that the strip light is correctly seated within the connector. Test the strip light without the connector to rule out issues with the strip itself.

Flickering or inconsistent light at the connection point

Re-seat the strip light into the connector, ensuring a firm and even connection. Check for any debris or damage on the electrical contacts. If the issue persists, try using a different connector from the pack, as the current one may be faulty.

Connector not holding strip light securely

Ensure you are using the correct Philips Hue strip light model compatible with these connectors. Gently press the strip into the connector's housing until it clicks or feels secure. Avoid forcing the connection, which could damage the strip or connector.
