Plug in the adaptor to the connector and make sure both our lights work, ensuring that each of the little white connector things aligns correctly as errors in alignment can cause malfunction; It's crucial to match the designated points on each connector accurately.

Again, double-check to make sure both lights work, confirming a successful and safe installation.

Depends on which length you want on the strip, you can cut every 3 LED, as indicated by the gold line with a scissors mark that shows where you can safely cut, ensuring you maintain the integrity of the strip while customizing it to your specific needs without damaging the circuitry.

I'm putting them behind my headboard along so it can bounce off the wall, and as I unravel them, they don't get tangled due to their thick and durable design, which not only ensures a smoother installation process but also promises longevity and resilience against wear and tear, making them ideal for long-term use in enhancing the atmosphere of my space.

Pull off the adhesive backing of the tape so the adhesive can stick it firmly on the surface you put it on.

As you proceed, peel the tape off gradually and press it around the whole headboard, ensuring a secure and even attachment.
