Can I use Tapo light strips outdoors?
All Tapo light strips are designed for indoor use only.
Although the TL63-5 and TL62-5 models have PU coating, being exposed to the outdoor environment will shorten their lifespan and damage the controller and connector without weatherproofing.
Why does my Tapo Light Strip LED look brighter after part of it was cut?
This is a normal phenomenon for the light strips.
After you cut part of the light strip, the load of the device will be lower than the status before you cut it. Which means there are fewer LEDs in the light strips. So, for each LED bulb, it may get a little bit more current, and the LEDs will look brighter than before.
How many LED bulbs are in the 5-meter light strip?
There are 30 small LEDs every meter. So if your light strip is TL61-5 or TL62-5, which is 5 meters long, there will be 150 small LEDs ( 5x30=150).
