Hello -- I've been researching and reading up on LED RGB lighting, and I've found some great answers and help from google results of posts from this forum. I had a question that I was not able to find an answer to that way (there probably is one somewhere, but I haven't found it), so I figured I would post the question myself.
I was wondering if it is possible to connect leftover pieces from cut strip lights together to make a longer piece. For example, if I had some 3 ft pieces cut off of different full length strip lights, would I be able to connect them together, and make a 5 ft piece or something like that?
I've seen how pieces can be cut and wired together such as to go around windows, but I was wondering more about connecting them without a gap to make or at least make the appearance of a longer piece. Would it be something simple like soldering the copper sections between the two pieces together?
Is this something that is possible, or are there any potential issues from doing this if it is possible? (Also if it is possible, are there any suggestions to do so in a clean / more seamless way?) If I'm way off, just let me know --I'm only researching right now so any advice would work.
Thanks
