What is power injection?

Power injection refers to the concept of introducing new power to the LED lights after a long run of lights. Voltage drop happens because as power moves from one LED to the other, they consume power and pass less power to the next set of LEDs. This will vary based on the effect currently been run. Brighter effects will use more power and dimmer effects will use less power, leaving more power for lights down the line.

Other factors such as quality of cable , length , cable gauge will also contribute to voltage drop and reduce the amount of lights you can connect on a single run without power injection.

Implications 12V example

Good power injection
No power injection

*Note our 24v lights can run about double the distance.
