small advice

If your use environment is indoors, waterproof light strips are not required. However, it should be noted that our COB light strips themselves are not completely water-resistant. If you watch my youtube channel a lot, you should find that my videos are often about seeing water. If you accidentally splash water, or other alcoholic beverages, there will be no problem, and it will not cause short circuit and damage to the light strip. Of course you have to clean it up as soon as possible. Bare light strips cannot be soaked in water for a long time.
In addition, all light strips can be turned into waterproof light strips through corresponding processes. For more on waterproofing, maybe Wikipedia has more.
