Transform the area behind your television or computer monitor with these versatile LED strip lights. Each one-metre strip packs in 30 individual LEDs, providing a continuous line of light that reduces eye strain and adds depth to your room. Choose between the standard IP20 model for dry rooms or the IP65 waterproof version, which protects against dust and water jets, offering flexibility for use in kitchens, bathrooms, or gaming setups. The 120-degree beam angle and 12-15 lumen output per bead ensure a soft, widespread illumination that enhances your viewing experience without creating a glare on your screen.
These strips are designed for simplicity and adaptability, focusing on user-friendly installation and reliable performance. The construction prioritises flexibility and clear, consistent light output, making them a practical choice for both decorative and functional lighting tasks in the home or office.
These strips are more than just decoration; they serve specific purposes in different areas of your home. Their low profile and adhesive backing make them ideal for spaces where traditional lamps or fixtures won't fit or would be intrusive.
Versatile Decorative Uses
Their utility extends beyond media furniture. Use them to outline the frame of a headboard, adding a modern touch to a bedroom. In a kitchen, the IP65 strips can be installed under cabinets to illuminate worktops, with the waterproof rating offering peace of mind near sinks. During the festive season, their flexibility allows you to shape them into wreaths or spell out words on a wall for a custom, reusable decoration. The variety of available colours lets you match your room's theme or mood.

TV & Computer Background LED Strip Lights: 30 Beads per Metre for Custom Ambient Glow
Features and Build Quality of the LED Strips
Flexible PCB and Adhesive Design
The core of the strip is a flexible printed circuit board. This allows you to bend the light to follow curves, such as around the back of a circular mirror or along a non-linear desk edge. A layer of strong double-sided adhesive is pre-applied to the back, enabling a secure mount to most clean, dry surfaces like painted walls, wood, or plastic. This design removes the need for brackets or clips, offering a clean, low-profile installation.LED Specifications and Light Output
Technical performance is defined by clear metrics. Each one-metre section contains exactly 30 surface-mounted LED beads. Every individual LED produces a light output between 12 and 15 lumens. Combined, they generate a uniform line of light rather than distinct dots. The beam angle is specified at 120 degrees, which is notably wider than many standard LEDs. This wide angle is key for creating a smooth "wall washing" effect, spreading light across a surface to minimise harsh shadows behind your entertainment centre.Cuttable Circuit and Durability Options
A significant quality feature is the strip's cuttable design. The printed circuit board has marked cut lines, typically a scissor icon, between each LED. You can safely cut the strip to a custom length at these points without damaging the remaining LEDs or the circuit's functionality. For environmental resilience, you select between an IP20 rating, suitable for general indoor use, or an IP65 rating. The IP65 version has a protective silicone coating that makes it dust-tight and resistant to low-pressure water jets, suitable for places like a shelf above a sink.Practical Applications for Your Lighting
Professional and Gaming Setups
For streamers, video editors, or anyone spending long hours at a desk, positioning a strip behind a monitor can reduce contrast-induced eye fatigue. The even backlight helps balance the brightness of the screen with the surrounding area. In a professional setting like a reception desk or display cabinet, the strips provide accent lighting to highlight products or branding without the bulk of spotlights. The ability to cut them to exact size ensures a perfect fit for any display length.Everyday Home Ambience
Stick a strip to the back of your telly to create a bias lighting effect that makes the picture appear more vibrant and reduces strain during movie nights in a darkened lounge. The sensation is a gentle, diffuse glow that seems to make the screen "float." In a child's room, use them as a safe, cool-to-the-touch night light along the base of a wall or under a bed frame. The adhesive holds firmly, and the low-voltage operation means they are safe for such applications, providing a comforting pool of light from a discreet source.Versatile Decorative Uses
Their utility extends beyond media furniture. Use them to outline the frame of a headboard, adding a modern touch to a bedroom. In a kitchen, the IP65 strips can be installed under cabinets to illuminate worktops, with the waterproof rating offering peace of mind near sinks.

Long-Term Benefits and Value
Investing in these LED strips brings several measurable advantages over traditional lighting or cheaper alternatives. The focus is on longevity, energy efficiency, and the specific utility that reduces the need for multiple lighting solutions.
Energy Efficiency and Cost Savings
LED technology is inherently energy-efficient. A one-metre strip with 30 LEDs consumes very little power compared to a standard table lamp, leading to lower electricity bills over time. Their long lifespan—often rated for tens of thousands of hours—means you are unlikely to need a replacement for many years. This durability translates into direct cost savings, as you avoid the recurring expense of purchasing and replacing less robust decorative lights or bulbs.
User Satisfaction and Customisation
The confidence to create a perfectly sized lighting solution comes from the cuttable design. You are not limited to pre-set lengths, so there's no need to hide excess cord or have a section that's too short. This custom-fit capability, combined with the simple peel-and-stick installation, provides a strong sense of accomplishment and control over your space. The peace of mind from using the IP65 version in a potentially damp area is directly linked to its technical specification of being protected against water spray, allowing for creative placement without worry.
Making the Decision to Purchase
If you need a lighting solution that is adaptable, easy to install, and provides a specific functional benefit like reducing eye strain or accenting furniture, this strip is a logical choice. The clear choice between IP20 and IP65 allows you to match the product precisely to your room's conditions. The 30 LEDs per metre and 120-degree beam angle are the measurable specs that guarantee a bright, even light output, distinguishing it from strips with fewer, dimmer LEDs. Choose your length, colour, and protection rating to build the exact lighting your space requires.
