How do I get started?

After you choose a location, be sure to use the included alcohol wipes to clean the mounting surface and let it dry. Dust or moisture can reduce the strength of the adhesive on your light strip. For the 16-foot model, the light strip connects to the controller and the controller connects to the power adaptor. The 32-foot model is simply two 16-foot light strips that each connect to the controller (not to each other). When attaching the devices to each other, do not force the connections. They are keyed to only fit one way.

For guided assistance, you can find detailed instructions in the setup article or an overview in the Quick Start Guide, or you can follow along with the tutorial video.
