Aura Performance SOB IP40 LED Strip - 5 Metre Pack with tails
Maximum light, beautifully even. Aura Performance is our high-output SOB LED strip - delivering 1,260-1,350 lumens per metre from just 9.6W in one continuous, dot-free line of light. No visible dots, no hotspots, just a bright, seamless glow that lights up any space effectively. Without a waterproof jacket it sits slimmer and bends more easily, making it ideal for tight profiles, coving, shelving and under-cabinet runs at home - and equally suited to shopfit displays, gym lighting and restaurant coving where a bright, professional finish matters.
Best for: A ready-to-install 5 metre run for dry indoor spaces where brightness and coverage come first - under-cabinet lighting, shelving and coving at home, or shopfit, gym and restaurant installations commercially - with no soldering required. For colour-critical spaces, see Aura Pro (CRI 90).
Each 5-metre reel comes with 20cm power tails factory-soldered, so it's ready to wire straight to your driver - no soldering at your end. Backed with 3M adhesive for a fast, secure fit.
Choose 3000K for a warm, relaxed white or 4000K for a crisp, neutral, contemporary tone - same strip, your choice of mood.

Yes, at the marked cut points every 28mm, though it comes ready-to-install at 5m.
What's the maximum run length if I join multiple packs?
5m from a single-ended power feed, or up to 15m when powered from both ends.
