Aurora Jin.UpdatedNovember 28, 2025|5 mins Read
Are you wondering how to choose the right waterproof 230V LED strip lights for outdoor use? Take a look at this article, where we recommend two of the best outdoor LED strip options to meet the varied needs of your lighting projects or designs. One of these products not only achieves an IP65 rating waterproof protection but also offers lightning resistance, making it perfect for outdoor use—even in harsh weather conditions such as thunderstorms.
230V LED Strip
COLORS Lighting's High-Voltage Series LED strips are 50 meters long and come with integrated IC technology. These LED strips can be powered directly with AC230V, eliminating the need for an external power supply. They are ideal for narrow spaces and cost-saving applications.
Available color temperature (CCT) options include 2200K, 2850K, 4000K, and 5700K. The LED strips have a rated IP67(EF) for waterproof protection and can operate in temperatures ranging from -25°C to 40°C. Additionally, they come with a 3-year warranty for indoor use and a 2-year warranty for outdoor use.
Features
Silicon material, environment-friendly.
Integrated circuit design.
Resistant to AC voltage fluctuation, constant current and brightness.
Application
230V LED Neon Flex
COLORS Lighting's AC series LED neon flex features a direct AC230V input, eliminating the need for drivers. It is energy-efficient (ErP-certified), lightning-resistant, and can extend up to 50 meters. You can choose between two bending directions: top bend and side bend. The color temperature(CCT) options available are 2700K, 3000K, 4000K, and 6500K, all at 230V with a length of 50M per reel. This LED neon flex is rated at 230V and comes in various colors, including Green (G), Blue (B), and RGB.
Additionally, it offers a 5-year warranty and is rated IP65 for waterproof protection. It operates effectively within a temperature range of -20℃ to +50℃. A variety of accessories facilitate wide-ranging applications, including outdoor facades, landscapes, bridges, and walls(vilia), among others.
Driver-free Installation
Driver-free installation is more convenient.
